i've got a secret



i love sundays. i go to my favorite meeting and get my spiritual fix for the week. i don't have to go to work and can spend a bit of time just being lazy. things like taking a nap and having a snack can easily be part of the game plan. or going to the mountains.

but my favorite thing of all is
extreme makeover: home edition
.

i am without a doubt a sucker for the formula of this show. i know every week what is going to happen. i know every week that i am being manipulated in some way. i know that every week a number of companies and corporations are getting advertisement in the name of "doing good". and i don't care. i eagerly get ready for the start time of the show on sundays, and i patiently sit through the softsell peddling and the overt advertisemnts, because part of me believes that someone's lives are getting better and that it is happening because someone is taking the time and putting the effort forth to help make that so.

i love to cry my 2 minutes of tears on a weekly basis. it makes me feel as if my weekend is complete. i sleep better and suppose i feel cleansed in some way. anyway i love to cry(for only a minute), and i love ty pennington, too. beautiful, crazy, and driven. but, shhhh- don't tell anyone. it's a secret. i really don't talk about this much. i just kinda quietly slip into my sunday evening behavior without even thinking about it.
