So here it is. This is the problem. Gossip Girl is so smeggin' addictive. No movies for this little buff.
The scandalous lives of New York's young and elite have swept me up in a frenzy, and I can't stop until I run out of episodes. I'm currently half way through Season 2, and its all "OMG" and "I can't believe she slept with him!" and "How could she do that?!? They are best friends!". I just can't help myself.
Don't scoff! I know its not a deep and intellectual series, but I say its one of the oldest forms of TV entertainment. Its the world of daytime drama and soap, its the ultimate in escapism. What better way to loose yourself from reality than to watch rich and beautiful (and might I add extremely fashionable. Blake Lively is my new Fashion Guru.) people crash and burn. I mean these people have series problems.
Plus, its the perfect show for chatting about around the water cooler. I love saying sentences like "I know, and he doesn't know that his best friend is falling for his ex-girlfriends ex-boyfriend, but even worse the ex-girlfriends ex-boyfriend is really in love with his sister!" Crazy.
On a side note: I am planning on taking a break, and watching a movie today. It's a cleaning day, and I can't only half watch this show. So it's back to my true love.. movies. xoxo

you have a water cooler?
Andrew, If only it wasn't just a turn of phrase. I wish I had a water cooler like the one from Real Genius (1985) with gold fish in it. That would be full of awesome.
