glad i'm not alone there.i've even made my husband go to a different room (or i leave) when the news is on cuz he likes to watch it...at first he just thought i was completely nuts but he's used to it now (luckily) and automatically goes to another room or lets me know he's changing it to the news.
So i guess if there were some nuclear weapon headed our way he's tell me but everything else is void.
It's just strange cuz i used to almost be a CNN junkie. i was always watching it cuz i was so interested in world news. but now...i can't even stand the thought of it.
i worry sometimes that i am SO out of the loop of news. but...at least i now know i'm not totally alone.
Thanks!
