I'm not a telly-watcher, with anything. I simply have other interests, like reading, creative writing and checking the news online. Or watching music videos on Youtube. Or enduring my mum on the phone. Or studying the local grocer ads and coupons, then coming up with my menus and grocery lists. Or doing my nails/finding new nail polishes. Or shopping online for stuff I need or want. Or simply spending quality time with my husband and cat.

Maybe that sounds boring to other people, but that's living the good life to me.
