I know you all are probably really sick of hearing me marvel at the conclusion of every month, saying how I can't believe how fast time is flying and seeming totally surprised that another month is about to be behind us, but I can't help it tonight when I say this: where the heck did the first month of 2011 go?! Wow!! I've got to say, if the rest of the year keeps up as it's begun, it's going to be a GREAT year :)
Sorry about that random intro! Onto my real "like!"
There aren't many TV shows that I regularly follow. I follow "The Office" weekly, I watch TLC often but don't make it a point to catch every new episode of everything the week it comes out, the Food Network is always on here in my room as great background noise (I'm a fan of background noise while I'm working or just hanging around)...Since senior year of high school through now, though, I've become a huge fan of Gilmore Girls. I never followed it when it was actually on, but ever since I discovered that ABC Family shows it every day at 5 (or at least that's what the time was two years ago!), it's easily turned into one of my favorite shows. For Christmas either last year or the year before Santa brought us the first season DVD set and that's when I really got hooked. It's now become a nice way to wind down a long day in class and rehearsal...I really look forward to my evenings (or nights, depending on when I get home..ha!) when I can sit down with my dinner, catch up on an episode or two online--Hulu.com always has a great selection of episodes each week!--and chat with Mom over AIM and completely chill out for a little bit without worrying about having to turn around and head back out to be somewhere on time!
This frequent routine has become one that I'm really thankful for as I believe that breathing time is absolutely necessary, especially in the middle of a chaotic schedule! Even if 45 minutes isn't available to us on a given day, 10 minutes is better than nothing! The smallest bits of free time can be the most important parts of the day!
Tonight, as the first month of the year draws to a close, Gilmore Girls and mindless "me" time make me happy :)
