The guild fish sucked and the prospect of Dynamis didn't really appeal to us, so we were at a loss for things to do. We decided to watch TV together and save the movie for another night. We're not big TV people. We don't watch it because it seems that the quality of programming has plummeted. Even with a 'good' show, the commercials can be enough to make your head hurt. I'm not saying this to be snobbish and elite, I'm just not happy with the lowest common denominator programming that has taken over in recent years, so I just stopped watching for the most part.
We surfed for a while: How Things Are Made, Will and Grace and a ton of brainless commercials. What stands out above most of the commercials is the sad quality of local advertising. Usually involves some prop or gimmick (a big blow up hammer to 'smash' prices and campy music/visual effects/logos) and always looks like it was recorded with a VHS recorder and mixed by a 5th grader. That's to be expected in less populous places, but we're talking 1.5 million-ish people here. Can't they upgrade to maybe a 6th grade at the video mixer?
Nonetheless, it was nice to spend time with D and just relax. We've both been short on sleep the past few nights. She's started snoring hardcore lately, and I can't imagine that's been afording her much sleep, and it's been keeping me awake half the night. Tomorrow night is our static. I'm seriously considering calling a recess to the static so I can take a good solid step away from the game and do other things.
