I think my coworkers are ready to slaughter me now because all day long I've been excited by the news that I get, not one, but TWO mentions in the commentary tracks of the new Newsradio DVDs. So, I'm a big lame loser and I find that exciting. I only mentioned it three or four times. And some of those were just with my eyes. And my big, insane grin. Aimed at my sister. Who I know for certain wasn't too impressed by the news. I believe her exact words were: "I have no idea what you're talking about." (She did too.) Then I told her and she said, totally deadpan: "Oh. Cool." Whatever, I find it terribly exciting that the writers and cast of a six-years-gone sitcom know my name, okay? We all have things we like to cling to, and this is one of my many... It makes me nostalgiac for the glory days of the newsgroup. I reread some old posts earlier, and that was truly just the most amazing internet community I've ever been a part of. Nonstop fun and silliness, and supportiveness during the tough times (Phil's death, cancellation...) Really. "Just a tv show", yes, but the fan community made it a lot more than that for me. I wouldn't be living here in this apartment now if it hadn't been for the friends I met there. |
