Gossip Boy?

So, the unthinkable has happened.

I got my husband hooked on Gossip Girl.

It all started very innocently right after the wedding. We were living together for the first time and although we have 3 televisions in the apartment all we wanted to do was watch tv together. We're psycho...we know. I had 2 episodes of Gossip Girl saved on the DVR to watch whenever I had the chance. You know...whenever I was alone. Well that never happened. and we eneded up watching 2 episodes back to back together. I suspected I might have an addict on my hands when he actually sat through both episodes without talking to me. That is a HUGE feat for him. This is a man who would find something to say to me if President Obama were giving the State of the Union address right from our living room.
So, 2 hours of GG in complete silence, just how I like it. Nothing was said after we finished, we just moved on to other activities around the house.

That was 2 months ago. Last night is when the truly unthinkable occured.

He picks me up from the train station and the FIRST thing he says to me is "Gossip Girl is new tonight!" Now, the train is my naptime so when I get in the car I am usually somewhere in the range of "still sleeping" or "slightly groggy". Well yesterday I was moderadely groggy so I thought I was hallucinating. I mean I had been thinking about GG all day but Robert? It was wrong on so many levels.

Reality set in when he made me do something I have not done in about 3 years.

Watch live television.

We actually watched GG live because he wanted to. We sat through the commercials and everything! After it was over we discussed. DISCUSSED! He confessed that Derota is his fav and he was upset she was not in the episode. He was mad at Serena for not being suspicious of her new "hubby".

Im not sure what to do about this. Should I embrace it and enjoy, or should I quickly stomp out this newfound interest. Decisions decisions.

I've joined the ranks

Yes, yes...I'm next up in the endless queue of prospective bloggers. I origiannly started thinking about blogging about a year ago when I first started planning my wedding. I found myself updating my bio obsessively, thinking of wedding related projects that I could do just so that I could post updates (psycho, I know). Then I reached the pinnacle of success in the bio world. I got a stalker. It started out as innocent emails exchanged back and forth. Then I noticed it became less of an exchange and more of a one sided manifesto on her part. The emails would come daily, sometimes several times a day and always ended with "I wish we lived near each other because I just know we would be best friends." So long story short I had a stalker and the sad (or happy) part about it was she was the one that got me seriously thinking about blogging. So my stalker planted the seed and here I am.

I guess I should start by telling you a little about myself.

I'm a 30-year old with a very boring life. I am married to a wonderful man named Robert who I love, love, love (and he loves me too!). We got married Jauary 24, 2009 in New Jersey and we had a wonderful wedding. I consider myself to be smart, funny, vibrant, honest, humble and mildly snarky. I love reading, occasionally enjoy writing and love to travel(wish I could do more). I'm hoping this blog will help me stay connected to friends and family since I have such a hard time doing that.

My life is a series of ups and downs and I hope you enjoy the ride!!
