Emotional over: The Office! Oh man, The Office. It's been two days since the series finale and I feel like a friend has moved away and is never coming back. But at least I can still reminisce with all the video footage from their PBS documentary. The Office (like Lost) is really really special to me mostly because both shows were something Dustin and I started and finished together. I remember an old co-worker of mine telling me and Dustin to watch it. Then one weekend when we had nothing going on, we drove to Walmart and bought the first season. I've got to be honest, we were not sold right away. The first couple episodes are kind of terrible but then the show just took off and started to hit it's stride and never looked back. And neither did we. I'm pretty sure we went out the same weekend and bought the second and third seasons and watched episode after episode until we were completely caught up. For my birthday that year, Dustin bought me a Dwight Shrute bobble head (it makes more sense if you've actually watched the show) and he has had a place on my desk ever since.  The Office has been apart of our lives for so long. Thursday nights will never be the same now that it's gone. I'm pretty sad about that. The finale was perfect. PERFECT (something I never got from Lost - still bitter J.J. Abrams, STILL BITTER!). And when Michael reappeared - OMG.  It was time for it to end but it doesn't make it any easier. If you haven't seen the show, start from the beginning and give it an "old college try". You won't be disappointed...unless you have a horrible sense of humor, in which case I feel sorry for you.

Happy for: Erin! She has had a wonderful thing happen recently and is just glowing. I love seeing people I care about and love, happy. I could not be more happy that she is so damn happy. Happy happy joy joy!

Watching: There are two episodes of SYTYCD waiting for me on my DVR. I can't wait to check them out! It's the ONLY reality competition show I enjoy/watch. I like it because the contestants they choose are ALREADY talented and not B-list celebrities. It's just dance. So much fun!

I'm still going strong with Friday Night Lights. I've recently started season two and some shit is going down! Dustin and I are (slowly) getting through Breaking Bad and just about done with Season 3. The hockey playoffs are kind of getting in the way of us speeding right through but I won't complain too much because the Pens are kicking ass.

Thinking about: this tweet from James Phelps (aka Fred Weasley).

Just a curious question.Whats the best album you own? Nees to get back to listening to albums instead of playlists all the time.

I can totally relate to this. I hardly ever listen to my CDs anymore. I pretty much always have my iTunes on shuffle on my iMac and same goes for my music on my iPhone. I miss the days of popping a CD in my car and listening to it beginning to end. Now it's just random song after random song. Technology is awesome and the fact that I can now sync my phone to play through my car speakers still blows my mind but it's kind of nice to kick it old school once in awhile. So I'm going to try that this week. Maybe pick a new CD every morning on my way to work and jam out.

Thankful for: LiveJournal! I'm so glad this website still exists. It's seriously one of my best friends. I love having a place to dump all of my thoughts. My hopes, fears, rants, drama, opinions, and funny stories that I prefer to keep private. I don't know how people don't keep some kind of journal. I would go absolutely insane if I didn't have that release. Anytime I have something I can't get out of my head I immediately log in and type my heart out. And all of a sudden I feel lighter. The weight has been lifted. It's such an awesome thing.
