Recent Addiction

THE OFFICE!!!!!

Yep, My new addiction is The Office. I blame peer pressure. Wow... I auctually sound like an addict. Anyways...
I was suggested by multiple people to watch it, and one in particular would talk to me about it constantly, which made me feel completely out of the loop. On New Years Day, I was watching Deal of No Deal and saw that The Office was coming on next and that was basically when it all started. However, I ended up not being able to watch it right after Deal or No Deal, so instead I pulled up an episode on NBC's website. Well the first one I watched was so good, that I watched a second and third one.
So that Sunday I decided to pick up season one from blockbuster after work. I returned it Thursday and picked up season 2. I then watched season 2 and returned it that sunday and picked up season 3. Yesterday I returned season 3 and picked up season 4, and am almost half-way through it already.
Yeah so within the past two weeks basically every spare moment I have had watching The Office. This includes in the background while doing homework, before sleeping, while getting ready for school, and occasionally in student aide (which my teacher finds hysterical because I always used to work in there and now I am suddenly distracted by this TV show)
My addiction has even come so far that I have begun associating the characters in the show with people in my life. (yes I have even found a Jim to my Pam)
Last night my mom and I came home and when I turned on the TV, TBS had The Office on. So while my mom and I ate Taco Bell we watched The Office. My mom watched silently the first episode and the commented on how Michael auctually reminded her of her old boss, which then made the second episode even more comical then normal.
I'm rather happy that I started watching this show as it offers a more comidic outlook then House does. However, do not take that as me saying I enjoy The Office more, as House is still considered my favorite show over anything else. (However, John Krasinski is much hotter than Hugh Laurie, I know shocking right?)
