On Repeat

Guys, lately I've really been going through a phase with this song

You should hear me screaming it out in the car, the shower, my office, wherever the mood strikes.  I hope you can appreciate it too.  Thanks to Val Pal for sharing it with me.

May the odds be ever in your favor...

Today the trailer for this movie came out

 and I must admit that I was filled with all kinds of excitement.  I feel kind of embarrassed because I'm not the kind of girl that follows a lot of hype, unless it's for the sake of being/appreciating the ridiculous, (High School Musical 3 midnight showing anyone?) but I can't help the way I feel.  I liked these books, they kept me sucked in and entertained the whole time and I think the movie looks like it has the potential to not be half bad?  Here's hoping.

Emotionally Stunted

Today K Dunc shared this article with me and it made me all kinds of happy and thoughtful.  You see, I mentioned that I tend to get attached to TV shows, the same thing happens with books and movies, and it is really true.  I love throwing myself into the world of the characters and I feel for them and miss them when they're gone.  I'm crazy.  And possibly emotionally stunted.  The last thing is probably more true than anyone realizes, but at least I'm not so far gone that I have to climb out of a window to avoid something potentially emotional. *cough..cough..Logan..cough*  I have a hard time dealing with things in real life situations, and you will never see me cry about them, but put me in front of the right Grey's Anatomy episode and I'm a goner.  They are my emotional outlets and I'm alright with that.  So when Dunc reminded me of possibly my favorite TV show of all time I couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic.  It's like looking back on High School (or College now it seems, as I am getting old) and remembering good times and old friends.  I love Friday Night Lights.  Love it, I love the relationships, the Taylor's marriage, Matty Saracen, the way Coach Taylor inspires the kids, everything.  I just want to be the Taylor's when I grow up, is that too much to ask?
