battleship
wowowowowow, Alexander Skarsgard and Taylor Kitsch together. I don't know who to look at. plus, Liam Neeson! I started to get very excited about this movie. Then a giant-ass Transformer ship popped out of the water and I lost all desire.
"Prepare to fire"
"Sir, which weapons?"
"All of them."
....
Too bad, this one had potential.

Challenge #7 COMPLETE!
No TV is over! Thank goodness!! Since it's the summertime, I think it made it a little bit easier to steer clear of the boob tube. But I did feel an addict-like withdrawl sometimes, but I managed to pull through.
Funny thing is, I gots a Yankees game tonight and the MLS All Star Game tomorrow, so I won't even be watching TV til Thursday probably! CAN I WAIT THAT LONG?! ?! ?! !

No TV Challenge Check In.
It's been 5 days, which means two more and I can watch television again!!! Overall, it hasn't been TOO hard to stick to the challenge, I think mostly because it's summer and it's nice out (and a lot of shows are on hiatus)...
The hardest part for me has been to figure out what ELSE to do with my time. Which sounds really awful, like all I do is watch television and lay around (which is true), but honestly it's hard to find things to do every second of every day! Sometimes you just wanna lay down in your a/c cooled living room, grab a snack and watch some episodes of Teen Mom. Especially when it's 100's of degrees outside.
But all complaining aside, I've managed to fill the week with dinners with friends, work outs, the beach, and lots of reading. Finished a book in one week, which rarely happens anymore. But other than reading, once I got home from work and ate dinner, I was left with a feeling of "what the heck am I gonna do now?" Maybe it's sad and lonely, but I miss my TV.
Now it's Sunday morning and I've got a few hours to kill before my soccer game this afternoon. So I guess I'll cook up some breakfast, and... read. sigh.

Challenge #7 - No TV for a Week
Okay, you knew it was coming eventually - no television for a week. It's the perfect time for it. It's hot out, I should be enjoying the great outdoors and training for my quickly approaching triathlon. So here goes. Today is day one of no television for me. No sports games, no reruns of House Hunters, no Teen Mom... or at least not until next Tuesday.
Now some people might think this challenge wouldn't be much of a challenge - but these people do not know the love I have for television. There's not much I enjoy more than coming home from work, making something yummy and watching television until it's time to drag my lazy bones to bed. I take after my dad in this regard.
So let's see what I find to do with my extra time when television isn't an option. Will I be productive, or merely find new useless ways to entertain myself? My guess is the latter, but I guess we shall see...

From the New Yorker:
Images from photographer Anna Skladmann's new book "Little Adults," complete with commentary.
"When we came up to the rooftop, it was a beautiful sunny and crisp midday. Vadim asked me how many photos I was planning to shoot, and I answered “maximum ten.” As the flash lit up, he slowly counted to ten in his head. After the ten frames of my first roll were finished, he went back inside, put on his pajamas and asked for a cup of tea so he could sit in front of his television in peace. Naturally, I had wanted to shoot ten rolls of film, not just ten frames."
Check out more photos here.
