Do you read or watch television in bed?
« on: August 11, 2011, 08:27:01 am »
I have never had a t.v. set in my bedroom.  I have never wanted one.  I like to read and will read for a while when I go to bed.

I like to do both whenever there is  time to do it.

Yes, I do read and watch televison in bed.  I know it's not a good thing to do, but the tv is in my room.  It is hard not to watch it.  As for reading - bed is my favorite place to read!

I used to have my old dorm TV in my bedroom before I moved.  I only watched it from bed rarely - typically if I was sick or if there was a movie/tv show I wanted to watch on the weekend and just didn't feel like sitting up on the couch.  Mostly I used it in the mornings to watch the Weather channel as I got ready for work.

Now that TV's in my home office and nothing's in my bedroom.

I use to watch tv in bed but I recently moved and I have not got my own place yet.  I read a little but not in bed usually on the couch where I am staying right now.

Yes, yes and yes.  Horrible habit, but I have my TV on 24/7.  I have a very large bedroom with a seating area and my desktop computer sits on a desk in there.  I work on the computer and have the TV on.  When I get in bed I have the laptop going and still watching TV and I fall asleep and let it stay on all night.  Sometimes I wake up and watch for awhile.  I know it is a bad habit, but I have done that for years and cannot hardly sleep without a TV on.

Sometimes I watch TV Land or Nick at Night very late, or play games on my laptop. I prefer to read in a recliner.

I used to... but then I got too lazy and gained weight. I think bed should just be used for sleeping and the tv in the living room.

I do both. But recently I've started reading more in bed instead of watching TV.

Both ... I have heard it's not a good idea because it doesn't let your mind relax before bed.
I don't seem to have that problem.
I do my work, read, watch TV, snack in bed.
I found this great hospital tray in a junk store that comes in handy to being a bed desk.
