Finding that new preoccupation

Dear James, Daniel and Emily,

I'll be honest, our lives (that is Kim & I) are centered/focused on our TV shows each week. Even with Tivo and Netflix we still set our schedules around following the shows and watching them every night. Well with the TV schedule ending for the season, and nothing really stepping up to take it's place that means it's time for us to find something else to do.

Normally about this time of year my focus in the past was the NBA playoffs. But I think I have conquered the attraction to a large extent. I will watch the end of games if they are close. But honestly it doesn't have the same attraction. (Just goes to show that when I finally reach the point where I can watch sports in HD is the time that I choose not to). So that is out as a preoccupation at night (plus Kim didn't really care enough about basketball to watch games with me anyway).

Last night we played some games, which is nice but I think we will want something more substantive for an every night plan. Although we always have Netflix movies to keep us occupied. The bottom line is that we will have to find something new to do at night after the kids go to bed. Which limits us to something around the house. We'll see. Might be a good time to learn some new 2 person games.
