I’m back. Half heartedly, but back nonetheless. I went through a lot of stress over the summer, and my creativity took a major hit. I stopped sewing, I stopped creating things on Illustrator/Photoshop/InDesign, I stopped modding my computer. I stopped wanting to do anything fun. I didn’t, of course, have time for fun, what with stage managing two shows, working full time, and dealing with living back with my parents for awhile. But whining isn’t going to solve anything.
Like that fact would stop me!
I’d like to blame a good bit of my stress on three factors:
- Summer television: Holy shit. What a fucking joke. Can we just eliminate the season of summer for the sake of television addicts everywhere?
- Also: reruns. I’ve seen every fucking episode of Dark Angel at least 3 times each. And Family Guy. If networks keep up this evil scheme, what will I have to do on the internet? I can’t waste time watching episodes of Nip/Tuck online (ARRR!) if I’ve seen each episode twice! That’d be far too much time wasting, even for me, the girl who watches fucking every episode of I Love New York no matter how emotionally distraught it causes me.
- Side note: Dear television execs: bring back Buffy reruns. I can never get enough of those. Thank you kindly, Eliza

- The (untimely) death of Veronica Mars: It still breaks my heart to see pictures of the show (note to self: probably would be a good idea to take down the picture of Logan crying on V’s shoulder that’s hanging above your bed). We all know how well I took the “finale.”
- The end of my childhood: no, I am not exaggerating. My childhood ended on July 7, 2007 with these words: “All was well.” If you don’t get the reference, it’s fine. We just can’t be friends any more. I know, we had some good times, but it’s over. As is my innocence. Everything ended on that day. Except our friendship; that ended on this day.
So here we are. Back to blogging.
To kick this off, I’ve compiled a list of the television I’m watching (and liking – that is, I’m watching The Hills, but I’m not liking it, so it will not be seen on this list).
Sundays: Nothing. Sundays suck. I’ve stopped watching Desperate Housewives, Family Guy doesn’t hold me long enough (I blame the internet!), and I’m too lazy to start watching something new.
Mondays: How I Met Your Mother, Chuck, Aliens in America, and Heroes. HIMYM and AiA conflict with Chuck, so I have been watching Chuck online.
Tuesdays: Law & Order: SVU. That’s it! I know! Tuesdays suck too.
Wednesdays: Gossip Girl and Private Practice. They’re on at the same time, so I usually choose GG, since PP is online the next day and GG isn’t on until Saturdays.
Thursdays: The Office and Grey’s Anatomy. They also conflict, but I watch GA at a friend’s house every Thursday at 11pm. We drink and cry and laugh. Mostly laugh, though, ’cause the writing this season sucks.
Fridays: Moonlight. LOGAN. LOGAN. LOGAN. Fuck yes.
Now you know how I spend my free time.
