Passing the Time

Dreary winter weather tends to keep us indoors, by preference if not by necessity.  Staying  indoors, though, means needing something to do.  There are some good TV shows on (Castle, Hawaii 5-0, White Collar, Southland, Smallville, Law & Order UK, and a variety of movies) but not enough to fill the idle moments.  We like to read, and I enjoy jigsaw puzzles.

The dog, of course, has plenty of ideas for things we could do–explore the neighborhood, chase things in the yard, give her something to eat.  Weather doesn’t bother her.  She would as soon go out in the rain as in sunshine, at least if it isn’t raining too hard.  Unfortunately for her, the humans in her house do care what the weather’s like.  We indulge her when when going out doesn’t make us cringe.

Winter also seems to call for comfort food–soup, mac and cheese, quiche.  When the weather’s cold, a cup of tea goes perfectly with a book.

How do you like to pass the time on dreary winter days?  Are you watching any particular movies or TV shows?
