ex-dawson's creek junkie turns to seventh heaven

i am never one to watch much tv. i used to, though. i used to watch dawson's creek like there was no tomorrow. when it changed from thursday nights to wednesday nights, it was not uncommon for me to skip wednesday night choir to stay home and "do homework" (meaning, watch dawson's creek). i attempted to record every episode one year- then mom taped over it all w/ her soap operas. i could've died. i cried. yes, i actually cried about that.

so... since those days, i've really not gotten to watch tv much. especially in college. it's extremely rare for me. but tonight... somehow the tv turned itself on and wound up on tonight's episode of "seventh heaven." now this is a good show. my mom likes to laugh at it, b/c it's so unreal in so many ways, but i have to say that i love it. it shows a big family, and a loving family, at that. it shows communication, struggles, real-life issues for young adults, the whole shebang. i love that everyone is older now. (yes, it provides more drama. and isnt that just what everyone needs!?) i love that lucy and kevin are married, and that she's expecting, and while i know it's "just a show" and it's "just acting," i love how kevin is supportive of lucy and how he is excited about having a baby. i pray that my future husband is like that! i want his excitement to show on his face even more than me! i think every woman deserves a husband like this. i love how matt and his wife are in grad school, yet still making it. young- but not too young. hmm. sounds good. tonight's show made me miss a certain someone, but i have to remember: nothing's ever set in stone. things could still happen someday (at least i'm praying for this?). and if it doesnt, then maybe God has something better in mind for me (though i honestly canNOT imagine anything better than this past year and a half- so i am baffled by this thought). God will work as he will, though...

ok, so i should be getting on homework. i just wanted to share this thought. seventh heaven is a good show. and... simon looks like a mini justin timberlake now. ha, ha, ha!!! life is funny!!! ok, moving onward toward my homework...
