FRIENDS
I have no idea if anybody is as devastated as I am over the ending of FRIENDS. I think it just hit me last night how very much I actually love that show and how much it means to me. You would never think that something so trivial could be so important. I remember so many times where I thought my depression and loneliness would get the best of me, there was absolutely nothing that could make me smile until I watched FRIENDS.
I had a tape of the best episodes of one of the seasons and I used to watch it over and over, it is a show that I grew up with, a show that I have laughed with and cried with, my husband says it’s the only thing he has to share me with.
Its not that I will miss the Thursday night episodes, I am sure I have seen most of the episodes through re-runs, it’s the fact that there will be nothing new, nothing exiting, to me it was like losing my FRIENDS.
I guess I am writing about it because it got me through a lot; there were times that I thought I would never ever laugh again. Yesterday while watching the interviews on Dateline, I cried as if I had lost a best friend, while trying to explain this to R, all he could do was laugh, until I said, “its like somebody telling you that the place where you live wont have a basketball team anymore”, he understood immediately.
