I don’t know about you, but whenever my spouse is on duty or underway, a tiny part of me looks forward to having control of the remote. While we enjoy watching shows together, we’re bound to disagree on certain ones (i.e. he tends to like heavy, historical non-fiction, while I lean more towards comedy or reality shows). Tomatoe, tomato.
When it comes to deployments or extended underways, we have to make lemonade out of lemons. So take advantage of those longer stretches and binge watch that show you’ve been waiting on.
