No PCS Left Behind
When I was a kid, the summer was about playing outside, getting a tan, swimming, going to sleepover camp (Camp Young Judaea, Sprout Lake shout out!) and reading a lot of books.Summer TV didn't exist, it was only re-runs and I had seen everything. Before camp, I would watch Underdog, or maybe The Monkees (did i really just reference The Monkees??), but nothing was new. I had so much free time to do things. Anything else but watching TV. That was my intention this summer. Summer '06...the summer of turning off the TV and doing something, anything, else.
PCS: "Let's not turn on the TV for a month."
D: "Don't be crazy, maybe a week...tops."
Sure, maybe I wenttemporarily insane, but it seemed like a good idea. All of our shows weren't on....OR SO I THOUGHT.
Then the commercials started....
"So You Think You Can Dance. New episodes starting in June."
"Everyone's on Pins and Needles. Project Runway 3. See who's Auf'd. Coming in July.""Gilmore Girls marathon. Every day. All day."
Ok, that last one didn't happen, but it should. I'd call out sick. Or downright quit.
I guess all those books on my shelf that people think I have read will have to wait until Summer '07, cause I need to find out which designer broke the rules and has to be asked to leave.You had me at "guten tag", Heidi.
