my feet are in the water, waiting for the tide to come

maura @ 4:15 pm

I never had a TV in my bedroom as a kid/teen/college student, and Jonathan and I have never had one in the bedroom either. I could never really figure out why anyone would want a TV in their bedroom, but then again while we do watch TV we are weirdy about it. We don’t have cable and the rabbit ears aren’t all that good so we tend to watch computerized TV (online or downloaded) and thus aren’t tivo-ers or channel-surfers. TV is very, very intentional in our house.

With the (now not-so-)new room setup Jonathan’s desk is across from the foot of the bed. One night last week we were getting ready to watch something and felt too tired + lazy to copy it over to the laptop and head into the living room, so we thought, why not just watch it on Jonathan’s computer?

And now I get it. So comfy! So cozy! I may never sit on the sofa again! Except for movie night, of course, because we can’t all eat dinner in the bed (too messy).

I think when I was a kid we sometimes did eat dinner in bed.

I’m afraid to ask my mom if this is true.

Har. The only time we ever did was when someone was sick, I think. I have a phobia of crumbs in the bed.
