Watching TV.

I miss my younger self, lol, that could watch a TV show year after year. I don't think I ever missed any episodes of Dawson's or Buffy. But lately I can't make it to the second season no matter how much I like the show during its freshman year!

For example I discovered Covert Affairs just before its second season premiered. USA was running a marathon of the first season one weekend, I watched all the 11 episodes, lol, and then when the second season started a week later, I couldn't wait for the new episodes. That is how much I enjoyed the show. But then, when they went on hiatus at the end of the summer I was done with them! They had a few more episodes in the fall, but by then I was completely bored and so I stopped watching!

Last spring I enjoyed Fairly Legal. Again was very excited to watch each episode. I read that they wanted to make 13 episodes but run out of time and just made 10. I was very disappointed. Anyhow, I was so looking forward to the premiere of the second season. I think we are up to the 7th or the 8th episodes and I actually forgot that it was on Friday night. I remembered last night and didn't even bother checking VOD to see if the episode is available! I think that is going to be it for me for this show!

Which brings me to Suit; that was my favorite TV show last summer and I am so looking forward to the second season premiere in a few weeks, I think June 2nd. I checked out the show because of the two main characters played by Gabriel Macht, and Patrick J. Adams, but I stayed because of Louis played by Rick Hoffman. This character is so much fun to watch, one minute he is such a despicable person that would go into any length to win his cases, at any cost, and another minute he is such an incredible kind and considerate person that you can't hate, lol. I hope that they don't change the characters and have new stories so that I could continue watching and enjoying the show. Because I LOVED it last summer.

But just as a backup show, lol, I am planning to watch Hart of Dixie from the beginning. I like Rachel Bilson and when I found out that she had a new show I reminded myself to watch it. Never did until last Monday! So I have seen the last two episodes of the season and they have been renewed for the second season. I figured if I don't like the new episodes of Suits I can watch Hart of Dixie from the beginning and in order.

The reason I want to find a show to watch and enjoy is because I want to keep myself happy since when I am happy I don't eat for comfort, and I am finding myself eating out of emotion.

For example, last week while working at the gym, when it got quite, I decided to read an article for my research project. As soon as I got the article out I wanted to have a chocolate. I am behind in my research because of reading a lot about healthy eating and diet, having fun with sewing, and working 40 hours a week at the gym. And when I try to catch up, since I know I am way behind, I want to comfort myself with food. I need to replace my 7+ hours per week fun time sewing with an hour of  fun time TV watching. I really need to spend more time on my research or I will be in big trouble. But at the same time I don't want not to have a fun time, something to look forward to every week.

Oh, I made another blouse, and wore it today. I shall take pictures and post soon.
