Life Lessons and the NBC Thursday Night Lineup

Joke of the Day:
What does the receptionist at a sperm clinic say to clients as they’re leaving?
"Thanks for coming!"

Evening, boys and girls! Well with all this drama being whipped up by parties other than myself, I've been losing sleep and breaking out like a teenager. But y'know what? I don't care anymore. I'm really sick of being surrounded by adults who insist on remaining emotionally in the 8th grade, and I will not subject myself to it any longer. In the brilliant words (lyrics) of Avenue Q, "For my own sanity, I've gotta close the door and walk away."

I went to the read-thru for South Pacific the other day, which was oodles of fun. This promises to be an entertaining cast. Actors have gotta be some of the most eclectic, wonderful people on the planet! Only thing we need now is someone to help some folks with their fake French accents so they don't sound German.

Anyway, we're reading through the script and we're getting a feel for what the message and story is all about. Yes, it's an old, kinda dated show, but it truly transcends and speaks to every single living person and it always will. It's not just that racism is stupid and petty and wrong. I think the real lesson to take away from South Pacific is that life is too wonderful and special and important and short to worry about things like the color of someone's skin or what society may expect of you or reasons why you shouldn't. Life is about doing, creating, loving, challenging, and living. It shouldn't be spent hating and curbed.

Ok, now to the fun part of the night. Thursday night comedy is back on tonight! Boo-to-the-effing-YAH!!!! We're starting with Community. I haven't been a regular viewer, but I might be soon. This show is hilarious! It's kind of like It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia without the inappropriateness! It's gotta be one of the best excuses to get a bunch of really funny bantering people in a room. It's just hard to watch Chevy Chase on this show while remembering what he looked like 25 years ago in Christmas Vacation.

Ok, I'm gonna watch and you should too! All is right with the world.
