Instead, I slept for most of the morning and then spent a few hours looking at spring semester course registration stuff.
I guess I’ll push the posts back till after my rural visit .
This made me laugh. I think I like Red Sox fans more now.
There are two Red Sox fans on this program who said that to me a few days ago.

Arrested Development got canceled because there were approximately nine of us who watched it while it was on the air, and that wasn’t enough to get it renewed. We were very vocal supporters, and told all of our friends there was a reason it won the Emmy for Outstanding Comedy, and we definitely had water-cooler talk every Monday morning trading favorite quips and figuring out that George Sr. built houses in Iraq, and all of our friends looked on, uninterested. And then it was canceled and we were bitter, angry, unhappy, watching those last four episodes that aired in a two-hour block against the Olympic opening ceremony on a Friday night in February.
And then a few years later your friends started bringing up in random conversations that they were starting to watch it, and they said things like “Yeah, it’s really funny” and you wanted to stab them because you had been saying that for at least four years, and you started to notice when you went to someone’s house they had the DVDs out on a bookshelf or the show listed in their favorites on Facebook and they started being like “This show is so funny! I can’t believe it got canceled!” and you thought
FUCK YOU.
SPOT ON, ALEX.
The night those last four episodes aired were such a bittersweet moment in my life. I mean, they were amazing and completely awesome but I felt like a little bit of me (and you, and Rekha) died that night.

Also directed towards Kelsey, but for different reasons.
“I had a great idea for a while just to really annoy the fans, which was that I was going to, like, let people know that we were in production and then … come out with an old-fashioned variety show where it’s like a Christmas special and it’s the Bluths and they’re singing, they’re wearing matching sweaters. Then you would cut away; then it would be like maybe like a sketch that was like Maeby and George Michael and he’s fishing and she works at a diner, and then back to another song (he laughs); really be just like, ‘This is a HUGE disappointment’.”

Then I awkwardly spent 30 minutes debating whether or not I should wake up my mom to get my cellphone back from my brother. In the end I think everybody in my house woke up and that was mostly my fault.
Fuck. I am so awkward everywhere.
Fisher: You can’t cook! Legwarmers are not gloves. And during Clueless, I literally gagged twice and pretended I had popcorn caught in my throat.
Casey: That was way harsh, Fisher.

Beaver: What does a lavalier bear do?
Rusty: Bear-er. You just hold on to the lavalier until I’m ready to give it to her.
Beaver: In a bear costume?
