The Struggle Against Addiction

I'm in day 2 of an 8 day silent retreat.
I had high hopes of spiritual enlightenment or insight.
But then I realized I had cable TV in my room. Whose brilliant idea was this? Clearly, someone who doesn't struggle with an addiction to television!
In a battle between vocation discernment and old reruns of 13 Going on 30 I have to admit that the voice of God is slightly less inviting than the voices of Jennifer Garner and Mark Ruffalo.

You should have called me back before you started your silent retreat! Now I've gotta wait at least six more days to yak and catch up with you :) hehe

The question is, what is God trying to say to you through Jennifer Gardner?

I'd fold in a second if I found myself faced with spending some time with Mark Ruffalo.
