Like many families across America, we spend our days waking the kids up, feeding them, getting them ready for school (even though we do homeschool), feeding them lunch, and then dinner, helping them with their reading or aother assignments, and then finally, putting them to bed.
When the time comes each evening, when all three kids are settled into bed, my wife and I "escape" the pressures of our day with television. My wife loves the old movie classics, and I love network television programs. I always have.
Thanks to our digital video recorder, I am able to watch several different programs during the week. I try to catch some of them when they air, but because my job, and my interests and hobbies keep me at the computer so long, I find myself "catching up" with the dvr.
As a blogger who focuses on a lot of political topics, I have election fatigue. My wife isn't as enveloped with politics like I am, and she is fatigued.
The last thing we are going to do tonight is stop everything and tune into the Barack Obama Infomercial.
