Scrubs Bookends

As I was leaving Atlanta, I started watching Scrubs on DVD. I was completely addicted. I knew that when I moved to California I would find Zach Braff and we would fall madly in love.

Yeah, I am not sure what I was thinking.

Needless to say, I never "ran in" to Mr. Braff, nor did I stalk the set even though Tony grew up right around where they filmed.

With all of the craziness of grad school I missed the last 2 seasons. I have been catching up the last few weeks and finally saw the final 2 episodes of Season 8 this evening. I find it so interesting that Scrubs played such a role in my Atlanta departure and that I found it again after 4 1/2 years. In the 2 episodes I saw tonight, they touched on Braff's character JD leaving Sacred Heart and all of the emotions around expectations, the future and good-byes. It was a little surreal. One, because I am going through many of those feelings right now and secondly because it's pretty weird that this Western adventure is bookended by my Scrubs viewing.

I cannot force myself to watch Season 9, but now that I'm caught up on all my current TV viewing I can get down to prepping for the move. In earnest.

Oh wait, I would love to be able to see some of the Grammy's tomorrow...

How 'bout some gratitudes before slumber?
1. an easy catering job today
2. hanging with Ayla after said job
3. back up parking for the general suck in the current parking situation in my neighborhood
4. coffee
5. TV shows on the internet - I was going to say interweb, but jokes and inflection don't really read here. right?
