Wanting more

I love to knit but sometimes I get really lazy and don't actually DO anything. I sit in front of the TV with my US 8 straights and a few new balls of merino something or other and I....do nothing. I watch the TV, knit a few rows of nothing, and then I just sit there with my yarn in my lap as I watch TV. How lame is that?!?!? I feel sooooo unaccomplished afterwards but I seemed unable to actually get myself knitting earlier whilst I was on the couch. *pout* I'm in one of these ruts right now and I have no idea what to do to get myself out of it.....
