When I moved to Bangalore, my brother and sister came here with me. However, sometime back both of them got admitted into MBA colleges in Pune and Mumbai respectively and I have been living alone. This has lead to a sort of tv-addiction. I come back from work and switch on the tv and bham! two hours have gone past just like that. Or on a weekend I take my lunch and sit in front of the tv and bham! it is soon dinner time.
To get out of this groove, I unplugged the cable that brings me cable
television from the TV. Then I went one step further. I took a bit of
string and the cable to one of the window rods. Now when I want to
watch the tv, I will have to get up, untie the knot and plug the cable
into the tv. Since this is too much work, I will not do it 
.
However, there are some serials (like Simpsons) for which I would do
that much work. This will reduce my casual tv surfing to null.
It has been two days now and this experiment has been successful till now.
