The people are strange...  


I wish I wasn't such a freak of nature and that I got depressed during the winter like millions of other people instead of during the summer. I don't know what it is, maybe the heat? Maybe the memories of that other girl I used to be that it brings to mind? Who knows, but I loathe it.

Finally catching up on some shows that I fell back on. Finished the last few eps of Pushing Daisies and I am halfway through S3 of Skins.

I've never been one of the people that felt the need to choose between Olive and Chuck - I always liked them both. But man as the series went on, I found myself more and more annoyed by Chuck. Emerson Cod still is the most awesome character. It was nice that they gave everyone a nice little warp up the best that they could. I'm just sad we never got to learn more about Ned's dad.


I'm finding some of the storylines a bit redundant, but so far I'm enjoying the new series quite a bit. I can't help but miss my original cast, but I do like quite a few of the newbies. Naomi is probably my favorite. Other odd ramblings: I think Emily is much prettier than Katie, I can't stand Effy (which is a shame cause I liked her well enough in the original series), I can't decide if I find Freddie attractive or not, I can't figure out what Freddie thinks he sees in Effy that he wants to be with her, I still love Mr. Stoner, and I love the little references to the old cast (Tony the hot older brother, Sid's porn left in his locker).

Next up is to watch Dollhouse, which I only watched the Pilot of during the original airings. Friday nights are not good TV nights.

You're not alone in that. I wouldn't necessarily say I get depressed during the summer (no, because the drugs take care of that) but... summer's not a hugely happy time for me like it seems to be for other people. I know part of it is the clothes/body issues... I like sweater-weather. I like the excuse to wear pants and long-sleeved shirts. But that's just a tiny part of it. The rest of it... I can't put my finger on it, ya know?

I think part of it is the heat. I hate humidity and it makes my sinuses go haywire. Nothing is better to me than a windy autumn day and I love a nice winter snow. Give me hot chocolate, fireplaces, and scarves & mittens anytime.

The other part is that summer always brings to mind the high school version of me and makes me miss her a little bit. She was outgoing, super affectionate and a by the seat of her pants kind of girl. She withered away at college. And she's a big reason why I avoid old high school friends. They all went to local colleges and I went away to school. They expected me to still be her, just in a new surrounding. Didn't quite work that way.
