You guys, right now my internet is on the fritz . I have to get on while it decides it wants to work &, hopefully, Time Warner can fix it in the morning. I haven't been posting a lot lately because, frankly, I'm in a funk. I've spent most of the week on the verge of tears and I would really like to hibernate. I haven't been feeling well and I know that's part of it. Also, I'm just depressed. I'm trying to shake it off, but it's taking more effort than usual and it leaves little motivation for much else. Anyway, this is what I've been up to lately.
Watching: Family Ties on Netflix...and the Olympics
You guys, I was 2 when this show came out & I remember watching the later seasons with my parents growing up. I did not realize how ground-breaking it was! Yes, it's a family comedy. But, they covered some pretty heavy issues starting with the pilot. I'm really enjoying it. It's a nice glimpse into actual 80's fashion too. Unfortunately, everything Mallory wears is the stuff I hated being made to wear as a kid. I also can't figure out why they dressed Jennifer like a Cabbage Patch Kid.
Also, I'm nerding out over the Olympics. I always do. I particularly enjoy watching the snowboarders. First, I'm amazed at their talent. I tend to yell "How are they even doing that?!" a lot during those events. I especially like that it's a "new" sport and all of the tricks were named by the snowboarders themselves. I think it's hilarious to listen to the sportscaster use the made-up names. I'm easily amused. I know.
