Sunday I got up and had work until about four.
10:00 Facebook/Email check
4:30 AFC Championship game on CBS
7:00 NFC Championship game on FOX
10:15 Call of Duty: Modern Warefare 2
12:00 Facebook/Email check
I don't know if I would have watched all of the football games on my own, but I was at my fiance's apartment and she wanted to watch them so we did.
Overall this was a very interesting experement because when I would casually watch a television show, I might not think about it very much. Going back and writing down when and what I watched forced me to consider what was driving my decisions.
I have to say that I am still not really sure how the process of getting my attention works. I tend to take in media that I am familiar with. I say that because all of my news came from one source (al.com) and I only watched a few television shows/movies that I had never seen before.
Overall I think the driving force is just some kind of gratification. Call of Duty is a social, challenging activity I can do from my own bedroom so I enjoy it. The Office is a TV show I have followed for years and I am truly entertained by it.
