My father is one of those chronic channel-flippers. If he’s sitting down to watch some television it is never anything specific. He just keeps flipping channels periodically. Watches a few minutes of this, a few minutes of that, maybe comes back to something eventually. And with all the many channels of television available he seems to gravitate to the four or five of the most boring TV networks for his patchy viewing habits. I know Dan Rather has turned into a liberal Internet folk hero with his Facebook published op-eds about the current state of American politics but there is also some channel that airs non-stop episodes of these mind-numbingly dull interviews he has with mostly has-been celebs.
There a thousand little details like this of my daily life that are driving me crazy. I’m tempted to just put that in my CV/Resume: “Please give me a job so I don’t have to live with my parents anymore.”
