Escape


Where do you go to escape life's dramas? When the wear and tear of the day has gotten to you, when you've counseled each and every one of your friends and realize that no one is really better off; everyone is suffering with their own struggles and you're lamenting that your next therapist appointment is three days away because you've got more than enough to run through than the hour long period you'll get to spend. Where do you go? What soothes your soul?

I've been getting a fix lately finding videos on youtube that mix one of my favorite songs and some great scenes from a favorite movie or tv show. I don't have cable so I am not able to watch much TV but there are a few shows that I feel have perfectly described my being at a certain place in time. Two of those shows are Roswell and Grey's Anatomy. Roswell found me in college and I would go over my friend Jen's and we would watch episode after episode. It was fantastic. I took a strong interest in the sci-fi aspect of the plot. Shelly introduced me to Grey's Anatomy. I resisted at first but it's a mesmorizing drama that consumes you right from the pilot episode. I definitely wish I could wear scrubs to work. Here's a fan video from each. PS. In case you couldn't tell, I'm a hopeless romantic. Okay, let's change that to hopeful. It sounds better :-)
