A Month of "Free Time" and my IPod

Everyday I take the commuter train into work. I've been doing this since October to get to my job in downtown Washington DC. The commute is 1.5 hours each way. After doing a bit of math I realized that next year at this same rate I will spend 32.5 days on the train! Over a month!

That's a lot of time spent doing nothing. So I read. But you can only read so much so I bought a new IPod video and have been watching Battlestar Galatica, Lost, ripped movies, etc. This thing has really been a "sanity saver". It makes the time go by nicely, even when squished in a seat by two large ladies that could've played as starting linemen for the '84 Redskins.

I'm completely sold on the format, I have never watched this much TV in a long long time. I like the whole TV-to-go plans hollywierd is coming up with. Keep it coming.

Of course you do realize that this plan requires "wasting" even more time finding ways (downloading movies, ripping, uploading to ipod, etc) to "waste" time :-).
