the fall line-up

so, after weeks of not posting anything, it is time for me to check in with you all to reassure you that I am in fact alive. school has become an all-consuming black hole for fun and entertainment and I can honestly see why people warned us last year that we would be praying for death during fifth quarter. fortunately, I managed to do well on the first neuro test of the quarter and I hope that it bodes well for the remaining weeks of this hellish nightmare.

anyway, just about the only thing I can do to stay sane is salivate over the new fall tv line-up and wait until the weekend where I study and reward myself with over six hours of prime-time television that I taped during the week. however, there are certain days that have shows that I just cannot resist and here they are:

Sunday:
Family Guy: self-explanatory
Grey's Anatomy: its like er, but smuttier and more sexual relations that would never happen in real life

Monday:
Arrested Development: probably one of the best things since kids in the hall.

Tuesday:
Supernatural: because I can't seem to get enough of WB's sci-fi crap

Wednesday:
Lost: I didn't catch any of the first season, so I'll try to figure out what's going on... which may ultimately end with me either studying while its on or falling asleep.

Thursday:
The O.C.: its like taco bell, I just can't seem to get enough...
CSI: the original, of course.
ER: I'm becoming increasing disenchanted with this show now that nearly all the original cast is gone. we'll see what happens.
clearly, nothing gets done on thursdays.

Friday:
pretty much open now that sci-fi's line-up is in reruns until January...

it would seem fitting that my first post in weeks would be about tv.

no, it's not easy tonight

So, I survived Quarter 4 which means really very little except for the fact that I am actually in my second year of medical school. It is kind of shocking when I think about it. One year ago, I moved to Kirksville and at the end of this year, I'll most likely be moving out. This quarter has been deceptively laid back thus far, but I'm starting to get a little leary of the upcoming weeks of exams. That and trying to coordinate all the other stuff that's going on has become a bit more of a task than I had expected it to be. For now, I'll attribute that to having to get most of the start up stuff, well, started up. I suppose it will all settle down once things get rolling. That's it for now I guess. More news as it develops.
