My Fall TV Review

Ok,

We're a couple weeks into the fall TV season and thanks to the wonderful technology of the digital video recorder, I am able to watch shows sans commercials. On the drive home tonight, I was contemplating the new season and the shows that have aired.

First, the best show that is ariing right now, The Office. Not my favorite TV show, that's reserved for January and 24. However, The Office has to be the favorite returning show for the fall. It's absolutely and amazingly halarious. So good, so many laughs.

Second, my favorite new show for the fall is Studeio 60 on the Sunset Strip. I was introduced to Aaron Sorkin's writing through a great friend and the show West Wing. I absolutely love this man's writing ability.

Again, these contemplations came on the ride home. As I pondered why these shows seem so good to me, I realized that they are all SO REAL. I can completely find myself in these shows. That's what is so great about them. I can put myself in the situations of the characters. How awesome is that?!!?

I can totally relate to different moments within The Office. And for Studio 60, that is easy. After watching this week's episode, I totally feel for the writers of the show. I know exactly what they are thinking because that's the situation I'm in.

I know this isn't really a "review" persay, but it is just my thoughts. Agree? Disagree? Let me know.

Vacation Reflections

Ok, first off... I know it's been a long time, but I haven't had time/desire to write. But I am now, so there.

I've had a great vacation and am getting sad that it is almost over. It's been GREAT to see friends over these past few days and get away from work just to reflect on things.

Some things I've thought over... I've told many people my story from college about how when my life seemed to fall apart I begged God for just one thing. He kept His promise and has let me hold on to that one thing. Now, I feel that I am at the place to begin to let that thing go as well and it's frightening.

I've seen that God has been shaping me and preparing me to get to this. Now, for the first time in my life, I don't know what's next. I still have 8 months that are solid, but after that, I have no idea where I'll be and it's very scary. I've been praying this whole week that God will renew my sense of purpose and passion. He seems to be doing that. Hopefully now as I return home on the 8 hour drive, I can keep sensing what God has for me. I know it's good, but it doesn't make it any less easy to get there.
