Television is a big energy sucker, and a really really big time waster. I don’t spend a tremendous amount of time watching television, but occasionally I can get sucked in.  When that happens, I lose all sense of time… and I almost always feel terrible afterwards.

Char over at Weary Parent, had a super idea to go tv free for an entire week, and will be making her family do the same.  I have decided to follow along.  I don’t think it will be too difficult, I have lots to do without having a distraction like that around.  My challenge, is to get other people around me to do the same thing.  This will be especially hard, considering tonight is the Oscars (the biggest television event of the year).  We can miss one awards show, right? The winners will be listed in the paper tomorrow, and People magazine will show what everyone was wearing in a week or two. Besides, did you see any of the movies that are up for awards?

Anyway, I am up for the challenge. Would love it if you all would join in with me.  Think about all of the energy we will be saving (both personally and globally).  Who’s with us?
