Am in TV coma.

Also, so sad. Our “To Do” list on TiVo? Less than a page long. I am not sure that’s ever happened since we got it. I guess we’ll be using Netflix alot more.

Please? Can the writers come back, now?

I am reality tv’s biggest fan, don’t get me wrong. I’m clearly addicted, admit I have a problem, but love my problem. I am, however, dreading the crap that is going to make it onto TV and stay because there are no writers.

aaaaaand that’s all I’ve got. I’m avoiding talking about leaving my job. It’s going to make me cry. I need to put it out there, but am avoiding it until I can’t avoid it. Let’s just say Khalil asked me last night if I was going to cry every night until I left, and I sobbed, “proooobabbbllyyyy”. Leaving is going swimmingly. Yeah.

Today is the Season Premiere of ProjRun!!

So that’s what I’m doing. I debated answering more questions, but honestly I’m drained tonight.

Telling work I was leaving was bittersweet. I am SO HAPPY for the change, but I have some coworkers that I adore. I will miss them very, very much. My direct supervisor was wonderful. My director… nice, and complimentary, but made me feel sad and bad about leaving. I am going to give him the benefit of the doubt- I’m sure he didn’t mean to make me feel bad, but nonetheless I did.

I have a few days before I have to tell my clients and families. I am not looking forward to that.

For the longest time, ER was the show I cried to all the time. Like, every week. Then, well, ER got boring, and none of the original actors remained, and I stopped watching.

Then I was a social work intern at a hospital, and they were all talking about Grey’s. So I started watching, about 3 episodes in, and I couldn’t stop. And it became, like ER and also Dawson’s Creek (don’t ask) one of those shows that I love and that make me cry. All the time.

The Dead Dad’s Club episode aired before I was part of the dead dad’s club. I remember that I already knew my dad was sick, and wondering if I’d ever be a part of it. And hoping that I wouldn’t.

And then I was.

And now I hate the episodes where there are scenes where someone’s on life support. And where George is dealing with the aftershocks of his dad’s death. And giving speeches about giving his dad his heart if he could have.

They make me cry.

It didn’t take long for me to run out of things to say. Huh.

 Random Posts I’ve started and erased, then deciding to put them all into one “big” post:

Last Comic Standing

anyone else bored with this show? Just give the title to Jerry Dee already, guys.

Burnout

In the field of social work, it’s very bad to start thinking “I don’t care”. That’s a clear sign you’re on your way to burn-out. It’s not that I actually don’t care, it’s that I’m overwhelmed and so it’s harder to care about each and every detail.

A numbers post

about how totally and completely weird and disorienting it feels to not have any idea what I weigh, how much I’ve gained or lost, etc. And also freeing.

That’s all I got, folks.
