anatomy of a perfect thursday
October 6, 2005
After an exhausting day, come home, grab the last leftover piece of an amazing wedding cake, and suddenly remember that you have an entire blissful HOUR of So You Think You Can Dance on tape to watch. Watch the hour-long finale and wonder if winner Nick will get his own reality tv show tracking his quest to become a dancer. Hope to dear GOD that Fox is already holding auditions for the second season. Remember that even though you are in law school, dance is still the key to your heart. Resolve to get ass shaking in dance class asap and marinate in the prospect of a Saturday night of salsa at the 13th Floor. Wish that Marc and Vanessa would come visit and tear up the Floor.
In keeping with the flow of the week, oversleep your intended half-hour nap by an hour and a half. Wake up groggy, assemble dinner, and head upstairs for a tantalizing episode of the OC. Turn to Fox and observe in horror as the television screen is filled not by young beautiful bronzed bodies but middle-aged men playing baseball. Scramble to find an alternative dose of impossibly dramatic and luxurious teenage life and find that Smallville satisfies this need almost as well. Appreciate the genius of network big wigs in scheduling Everwood immediately after Smallville. Get caught up on the drama that is each character's life, relish the complexity of the relationships, wonder why the most attractive guy on the show is also the gay guy on the show.
At half past 10, reflect. The night has been good. Look forward to a brilliant weekend: a Friday night with Slav, a Saturday night dancing with friends to celebrate a birthday, and a Sunday to relax.
