My So-Called Life

Anyone remember this mid-90s TV gem?


I was a Claire Danes fan from the beginning.

I was also a Jared Leto fan from the beginning.

This is why it boggles my mind that no one knows who Jared Leto is. Seriously? That beautiful boy from "My So-Called Life?" From Requiem for a Dream? From Fight Club? From, dare I stoop to this, 30 Seconds to Mars?

I watched this show every weeknight before I went to sleep. I was obsessed.

So you can imagine my excitement when I saw that Netflix had it available to rent. Not only that, but I noticed tonight that it got added to my instant streaming queue!

Yes, ladies and gentlemen. I watched three 45+ minute episodes of this fantastic show. And it's still full of all that adolescent angst and drama that I so adored about it.

I'm excited to continue watching.

October in Review

October 1 we woke up around 6:30 and watched nightmare before Christmas. We all took a nap. I took AJ to Walmart with me. I listened to most of Viola Davis' memoir. It was so good.  October 2 AJ and I were up at 6:00. I was busy preparing for our rehab conference at work. AJ spent the day at his grandmas' house. It was a normal evening at home, and I ended the day watching Riverdale.  October 3 I walked on the treadmill. It was just a normal day.  October 4 I did leg day. Work was busy as I had to set up for the rehab conference at the hotel. I played with AJ and did bedtime. Matthew picked us up dinner and we watched Couples Retreat.  October 5 I was up early for the rehab conference. It mostly went well. I played with my baby and had a fairly normal evening, hard conversations aside.  October 6 I was up early again for the second day of the rehab conference. I took AJ outside and spent time with him. I started on the cleaning and laundry. October 7 and I was up at 6:00 and fi

November GBOMB

I missed October. I just didn't have the mental energy or time to commit to it. But I like doing these. It helps me reflect more about what I'm thinking and experiencing in life rather than just listing what I do in a day like a news report.  So in November... Good California. Everything about it. AJ did so well on the way there and on the way home. The weather was great--rainy day included. Being with my dad and watching him connect with AJ. Watching my brothers love on AJ. AJ getting to run around outside. The only downside is that my favorite donut shop was only open one day we were home, and they didn't have my favorite one.  Family photos. I love them! We took them at Wheeler Farm again, and Ali had them to us in two days. She's so good at what she does, and I was able to order our holiday cards super fast.  Christmas. Lights. Decorations. Music. It makes the short, dark days easier. Having Christmas music or movies playing just brings so much cheer.  Exercise. Wit

November in Review

November 1 I had a four hour fierce conversations training at work. I ran some errands after work. It was a normal evening at home, and Matthew and I watched lessons in chemistry.  November 2 I was awake at 6:00 and lifted weights. It was a work from home day. We went as a family to eat dinner at Salt City burger company, which was pretty disappointing. It was a normal evening at home.  November 3 I was up at 6:30 and went on a walk. I worked for a few hours. I got most of the house cleaning done as well as three loads of laundry. We went as a family to Cornbelly's. It was perfect weather and not crowded. After bedtime Matthew and I ate panda express and watched lessons in chemistry.  November 4 we all got up at 7:00. I went on a run. I did my laundry, took AJ grocery shopping, got Dutch Bros, and took AJ to play outside. After AJ's nap we went to Cornbelly's just the two of us for the very last time. It was a normal evening after that (dinner, bedtime, etc.).  November 5 A
