I haven’t watched cable for a long time… maybe three or four weeks? I never thought that would’ve happened. I always said that I liked flipping through channels to find some random Harry Potter movie playing. I also said I liked commercials.
So it seems that I don’t miss either of those things.
Basic cable is part of my condo fees, but I pay a little for some extra channels… most notably BBC America, which carries Doctor Who. But guess what? I haven’t seen any episodes from the latest season of Doctor Who. And I don’t seem to miss it. Weird.
Maybe I’ll stop paying extra for the extra channels…
It is surprisingly easy to give that up. If you already have basic cable, then your napping needs are met. (Falling asleep to something that’s just playing? That’s what I miss. Now I just start up YouTube and it keeps playing videos.)
