Media Blackout

I only saw 4 minutes of the news tonight and I realized that I can't look anymore. I had to turn it off. It has taken 22 minutes for my blood pressure to go down...some days it doesn't bother me - their tendency to make everything catastrophic and ridiculous.

I'm taking a couple of busy days as an excuse for a media blackout. I'm sure if I need to know something important, someone will tell me.
