too much of my life revolves around television. many times i can place the year in which something happened by remembering what was on tv and then working from there. sad. i have an uncannily good memory most of the time. down the last detail. this is really not a good thing. ask my boyfriend- he hates it. ask anyone who doesn't have a good memory- they hate it. ask me- i hate it. sometimes it's just easier to forget things. i wouldn't know though, since it so rarely happens, and when it does it's something lame anyway. i blame television for my uncannily good memory. maybe if i had no framing reference i wouldn't be able to place when things happened and the details would fall one by one. i plan things around television. tonight for example i am going to watch "the osbournes" at my old roomie's place. i don't have cable and the osbournes is on mtv and this is our one day a week pretend we're still roomies time. so i have to make sure to get my work done and make soup with mike before the 9:49 bus so that i am in time for my tuesday mtv night. so complicated. i wish i could say that i didn't care about tv. when i was younger i was worse- i had many things that i had to see every week (90210, the x-files etc...) and if i was not going to be home i had to tape it. i rarely feel that way about tv anymore. "popular" on the wb a few years ago was amazing though. and so is the osbournes now. and the memory lives on..... |
