The Writer's Strike is rumored to be over. Oh, happy day! And maybe now we'll get a new "Happy Days" series. Probably not.

So as a former and soon-to-be-again couch potato, here's what I have planned to celebrate the return of my two-dimensional, high definition friend.

• Stop dressing up my cats like the cast of "Scrubs."
• Get some new sweatpants and socks, or what I call TV Watching Wear.
• Box up my going-out slacks and jeans. I won't be needing those until the summer re-runs start up.
• Throw a going-away party for books, conversation, and exercise.
• Eight more DVRs! I'll never miss another show again.
• Stop referring to my wife as "best leading actress in a romantic series."
• Move my studio audience (fishtank) back upstairs. They hardly ever laugh on cue anyway.
• No more videogames. --Haha! There's a better chance that I'd spontaneously take flight.

And now for some "warmup watching." Cue a theme song, any theme song...
