DVR is Not My Friend

When I first moved into this three bedroom apartment with my older sister, I could not wait to get my hands on Comcast's DVR. Thanks to DVR, I never once missed my favorite television series, movie, or show. It's the greatest thing invented these days. Now that I'm half way through our 12 month lease at the apartment, I noticed something. I'm now 10 pounds heavier and forever and a day a couch potato freakazoid. This is not good. I want to be able to quit cold turkey but I can't! I'm already addicted to DVR. The HD option worsens this ever so bad new addiction of mine. [share-bare tilts her head to right and begins to day dream while sitting in front of her television. Yeah, I was talking in third person....so what]
"Gosh, how awesome it was to watch DVR'd NFL games on HD. . . "
[she then releases a huge sigh] I'm in need of intervention from this dependency problem I have with DVRing. I already completed my first step of the Twelve-step Program. I'm admitting to you all that I have a problem and I need help.
Dear Dude from Up Above, Please grant me the courage and willpower to get my fat ass off the couch. Please steer me away from glaring into that wonderful digital glow coming from my 40" Samsung Flat-Panel LCD HDTV. Please give me the strength to do more productive duties such as cleaning up my pig sty of a room and/or doing my laundry at least once a week. Please motivate me to occupy my free time doing more active things such as exercising or eating healthy food at the kitchen table. Please guide me through these tough times so I can finally get rid of the muffin top I inherited from sitting like a potato due to excessive television watching. Please be my savior and HELP me say 'No!' to DVRing. Love always, share-bare
Oh d-d-dear. What to do. What to do.
