Too much TV?

I have to admit. . .I'm a television junky. It seems that with all the "seriousness" of my job that I need a mental outlet. . .a place where I can be mindless! Unfortunately, it's rubbing off on my children. Madelyn is a commerical addict. Tonight, Lily was griping about the computer, insisting that we get a new one. To which, her dad said, "I don't think we have money to just get another computer whenever we want. Do you want to pay for it? It's going to be $500/$600 for a new computer" Out of nowhere, Madelyn says, "You just need to trade some gold!" I think the "Cash for Gold" commericials are indoctrinating our youngest!
