We don't have cable at our apartment and don't really plan to for a while. We may get it when football season starts, but even then, I don't really know if it would be worth it. Everyone thinks we're weird because we don't have tv, but I just don't see why we need it that much. We just moved here and I think it would be a waste of time to sit inside watching tv shows when we could be out exploring Seattle. I don't care at all for reality tv shows, or anything else that's on tv right now. Plus, once you get hooked on a show, it's really hard to break the habit of having to watch it. We have no way to record anything, unless we hook up our old vcr and find a tape somewhere. Even then I don't know if it would actually record. The only thing I sort of miss is being able to watch sports on tv, but that won't be that big an issue until football season. I just think that in general, people are too obsessed with tv and waste a lot of time watching hours and hours of shows. I mean, a few are ok, but to sit at home every night in front of the tv is weird to me.
