Or under the couch. Either way, you're probably gonna have to get up to find it.

Sorry about the bad news...

My TV gets left on the "Recorded TV" channel - I'll fall asleep watching some program I recorded, the program ends and the system goes on the screen saver mode. What's really bad is there are countless "Perry Mason" and "Mission Impossible" episodes I've seen the first part of but slept through the end.

No wonder you can't get off the sofa - you are depressed and afraid that your local pastor's wife (who is having an affair with the town undertaker) is after you because you know about her affair and her plan to kill her husband to drum up business for said undertaker and for the insurance policy on her husband. Don't get off the sofa, get under it! She is waiting for you at the gym - DO NOT GO TO THE GYM!

I have things to do....but I don't want to go out in the heat. I hate, hate, hate summer in Texas!

Sorry, that didn't help you much!

but you never actually go inside so it isn't very effective.

To be glued to the couch because I can use the sofa king cool smilie. Now do as the smilie does and you'll be all bounced up.

I've had many of those.

There's a Girl Group special on PBS right now-that might get ya off the couch.
