is it wrong to take life lessons from a tv show?...
i watched Grey's Anatomy. the best episode of all freaking time. the one with her "fantasy". (ok. i am melting inside. really.)
the one where...
alex: where does it hurt?
izzie: everywhere.
alex: maybe it hurts for a reason.

you're right alex. maybe it does. Ixer would tell me pain is a construct of the mind. an evolutionary product. to help me survive. by telling me whats wrong and harmful for me. so that i can stop. so that i can make it stop. move away. and recover.

that must be why it hurts so much. so that i know whats bad for me.

i guess the next step is the making it stop thing.

pheobe: like pulling off a band aid. quick and painless.

thats how it should be.

tv is telling me how to live. much more practical and relatable advice than most i've had lately.

take that. all you people who say tv rots our brains.
it all depends on how you take it.

hahaha. finally finished my cold war essay. not my best. not my worst. kinda happy i guess.
goodnight all.

here's to television. selfhelp in a box. visual joy. whatever you want it to be.
