Fussy baby and TV-shows everywhere!
Dude. You do geek out on TV-shows and movies when you have a baby who don't wanna move from moms lap... o.O And you have feeding times with regularity, like every third hour. I spend SOOOOO much time in front of the TV, it ain't even funny...
I watched it when I was a kid, the original series, with my family. Was like a ritual almost back then, everyone gathered around the TV. And now I watch it again, the new series. And it sucked me in just like when I was a kid and didn't even understand all of it. I am talking about Dallas. It is SUCH a soap still, but dammit... I can not help myself! It is so much fun to watch! And the fact that old characters from the original series turn up, makes it all the better! Especially J.R Ewing and Bobby Ewing... To see them again, so recognizable as their characters, are a PURE joy!
That series is just perfect to watch while feeding Alexandra during the evening. :-)
And then, during morning feeding time, they run RuPauls Dragrace... One more of those, I can NOT help myself, what the hell is wrong with me things I just have to watch! And they run it every day to, so I wonder what they'll do when they run out of episodes, since they are up to season 4 now! It is SUCH a silly thing to watch, really... but also so much fun! And perfect to wake up to. X-D
I also try to catch The Dog Whisperer with Ceasar Milan since they run both old and new episodes here on Swedish television. I am no dog-person since I've grown up with cats and always had cats around me, but damm if it ain't impressive to see him work with them dogs... and mostly with their owners! So, so interesting... and impressive!
Another TV-show I always try to catch is the swedish Lyxfällan... I learn SO MUCH from that show how to take care of my economy and what not to do and what to do if things turn tough... Brilliant show that one!
And when nothing fun is on (Simpsons and Family Guy also work in a pinch), I watch movies from our VAST collection... There are so many of our movies that I haven't watched, old and new, so I figured hell... why not? When I am stuck to the couch anyway with a fussy Alexandra that just refuses to lay on the floor kicking around and looking at the baby-gym or sleep or just sit in the baby-carrier... She has those days, trust me. And then she wants me. As a bed or a pacifier. :-)
So to say I watch A LOT of TV lately, would be an understatement. I do have my smartphone with me so sometimes I poke around on Twitter, Plurk, Tumblr or Instagram using aps on that one. Thank gawd for that or I would have gone slightly insane! Thing is, as soon as Alexandra ends up on my lap, she calms down. Not so much in
peting73s lap. He is only good enough now and then apparently. But I do use the time dad works as a bed and teddybear to have some time for myself. :-) So, if you wanna know what the heck I am doing? Your safest bet is to check those places. :-)
