feeling: bored
listening to: Gackt - Seki-Ray is stuck in my head
Forgot about Friday Five yesterday. So here it is.
1. How many TVs do you have in your home?
Right now, 2 - my parents' floor model in the living room and my year-old 19" in my room. I also have a crappy little 12" in my dorm... I've used it for copying tapes before, but I don't think it'll ever do that again... piece of junk.
2. On average, how much TV do you watch in a week?
Not as much as I used to, really. Actively, maybe 20 hours or so. Inactively (i.e. listening cause there's nothing else to do), maybe 25-30.
3. Do you feel that television is bad for young children?
Not if they can only watch a couple hours a day or so.
4. What TV shows do you absolutely HAVE to watch, and if you miss them, you're heartbroken?
I get a tad cranky when I miss my Whose Line. I also try really hard to catch the first hour and a half of Adult Swim every Saturday night.
5. If you had the power to create your own television network, what would your line-up look like?
Weekday mornings begin with a random hour-long nature documentary followed by an hour of Pokemon (you heard me XP), then Animal Planet's Big Cat Diaries and That's My Baby back to back, then two hours of Whose Line - an hour of Drew's, an hour of Clive's. At noon, a different subbed anime movie every day followed by episodes of DiGi Charat and other short-episode animes for filler as needed until the next even hour begins (if the movie ends at 1:45, it'd show a DiGi Charat ep or two until 2:00, etc). Afternoons would consist of an hour of Simpsons (this could be cropped or removed depending on the length of the preceding movie) followed by an ep of Family Guy followed by an ep of the Drew Carey Show followed by an hour-long block of anime... regular 22-odd minute episodes, 2 different series in the block, a new series beginning when one series ends. Like, I could start with daily Escaflowne and Eva, then replace Esca with Utena and Eva with Cowboy Bebop, etc. Then the daily dinner hour would consist of a different random Disney animated movie (Lord knows there's enough to last a few years on this kind of schedule), followed by some classic Disney shorts for filler till the next hour begins. After that, an hour of AFV (this could be cropped, extended, or scrapped depending on the length of the preceding movie, again), then a Powerpuff Girls followed by a Rocko's Modern Life (whatever happened to that show?), then another hOur of anime (like the afternoon block, but 2 still-different shows), and then a random daily movie that's anything but Disney animation, followed by some quick news and weather reportage for filler, then an hour of Hey Hey Hey! (starting from the very first ep so the reruns can last a year or so before getting to premeires), then another anime block for series with hour-long eps, and finally, several hours of Japanese music videos and concert footage till the next morning's programming begins. Weekends would be 24/7 anime - an hour of Pokemon in the mornings, then a full series marathon during the day followed by movies and filler until midnight, when more Jap music videos would run till Sunday (or Monday) morning. Longer series like Ranma and Sailor Moon... hmm... I can reserve those for the weekday afternoon block.
Okaaaaay... that aside. I'm tired. Nephy spent the night with us last night for the first time, and he's sick. Ear infection in both ears, and a cold (don't know if that's part of the ear thing or not). So even though I slept upstairs and he downstairs, I woke up every time he did. About 3 times I think. Had a few cranky spells too. Other than that... he's quite the little walker now, he's always jabbering, he adores chocolate milk, and today he learned to climb the stairway and find my room. And after he did it once, he did it 4 more times, getting faster and more confident each time. He only stopped cause Dad made him. X_X And we're talking full sized, 12-step stairway here, not just a few little steps. They grow up too fast... *sniff*
He's about to go home now, so I should probably put in one more appearance before his mom shows up. Ja na.
