I could do three hours tops. My wife was reading a novel from 10am to 6pm. We really haven't done a bloody thing all day.

I don't blame you.

Phew! You had me worried for a moment there, Mitch!

a bit much but I did get to watch sports all day on Monday.

So while she was reading, you were watching sports all day? What are you complaining about?!

[–] [deleted] 6 years ago

I was being ignored.

And you didn't ignore your wife while watching sports all day???

I was prepared to binge something but she kept on reading.

Is that some kind of sexual metaphor, Mitch?😐

Actual TV binging. I took care of the sex thing before the day started.

Hell no. My attention span is not long enough.

Did most recently (common occurrence in my youth, not so much now) that last year with 'Leviathan Wakes' by James S. A. Corey (pseudonym for Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck).

i'd binge-watched the first season of 'The Expanse' and thought that the last episode sounded familiar. Sure enough, 'Leviathan Wakes' was in my 'unread' stack.
