Dad, Can we get a TV in the Bathroom?

This is the time of year when your fingers start to get more workouts than your biceps. The curves in your couch begin to reform after surviving another summer without your butt's presence. You start re-perfecting the art of procrastination, just one more inning, just one more period, just one more episode of "So you think you can dan...uhhh..I mean...Entourage.

You eat dinner with Shorty and Garrett, instead of Mom and Dad.

Yes, It's October and that means perhaps the best month of the year for the Tube. The NHL is back on and you still care about your Hockey Pool. The NFL is in full swing and October baseball makes you realize why you watch the sport and why Fenway Park is so special.

Even your favourite T.V. shows are back and making you cry and ask why???

Only April and its crazy ending to March Madness, hockey and basketball playoffs, and season finales can compete with the hours logged in front of the tube in October. 

The only bad part about October if you are student, such as myself, is that as T.V. gets better and more irresistible, so does the workload. Its so unfair. Every game watched is another letter grade lost. And what sucks is that when you have the most free-time, like the Christmas Break, all you are getting on T.V. is a College Football Bowl Game between IshouldplayintheCIS State and I'maDIV5schoolinAlaska Technical.

So my friends enjoy the month ahead, it will fly bye. School and work will always be there, James Duthie wont.
