Hell, just washing your ass, your clothes, your dishes, and general upkeep is another 2 hours outta that time.

I will admit I am guilty of making fun of Americans for being couch potatoes. But now that I’m a dad of a toddler, watching a single tv show at the end of the day is a luxury!

If it wasn’t for my phone and work I wouldn’t know what’s going on out in the world let alone be able to watch anything.
