Breaking up with The Office

Breaking up with The Office

So, I am kind of traumatized to admit it…but I AM SO OVER THE OFFICE.  I really never thought I’d say it.  We realized earlier this week that we’re probably three to four weeks behind in our Office watching, and neither Joey nor I really seem to care that much about it.

This season has just kind of been hit or miss for me, and in my opinion most of the episodes have been big huge misses.  The Superbowl episode was the straw that broke the camel’s back.  (Can we all say “jumped the shark about twelve times” together?)

Jim?  Pam?  I love you, you’re cute and all…but you’re not quite enough to get me to drive down to DTS on Friday evening to see what we missed on Thursday anymore.  When I realized that tonight is a new episode, I didn’t even get excited about it.

Sorry.

I just don’t really care all that much anymore.

(Oh, and it’s not you, it’s me.)

Joey is my best friend. We welcomed our miracle baby, Analie Alexa on November 23, 2010. She was 7 lbs of cuteness and we are so thankful for her. We lost our first baby (who we symbolically named Samuel) the summer of 2009. I love being a Christian, even when it's hard. I've tried IVF. Twice. It worked. Once. That's how we got Analie. I'm always willing to talk about infertility. Diagnosis: Stage 4 Endometriosis (plus a few other bonus things) I'm live in Indiana. I enjoy reading and going for walks in the evening. I get my news from NPR. Someday I want to be a guest on Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me. I love backpacking, hiking, canoeing and survival camping. I'm a big fan of weekends. My bike's name is Thunder. I'm a youth pastor's wife. I dig cows. I don't handle stress well. I'm not good at fishing; I talk too much. Cooking and baking are my favorite. I love hanging out with my girlfriends! I'm a budding environmentalista. I love me my Joey. Texas is where we "came of age". I enjoy seeing animals and want my very own Alpaca. And Koala. And Panda. Conservation is beautiful. I'm a neat freak. I like all-natural, chemical-free, environmentally-friendly products. Green is my favorite color. Still.

  1. Dear Sister,

    My love affair with The Office has long since ended as well. I didn’t want to watch it anymore last year because so many episodes were so off color, etc. But it was hard to break things off…I am glad it has deteriorated so much more because now I don’t even miss it, either:-)

    Love,

    Sister

  2. The Office was a show that I never really fell in love with. I’ve watched a few episodes, but it’s never one of those shows that I felt the need to watch (more like, if I’m flipping channels and it catches my eye, I may sit and watch it).

    But I do know the pain of breaking up with a show.

  3. I think this symptom must be national…we have to drag our our projector and some other kind of electronical thingies that I can’t identify to even watch TV. Needless to say, when 8pm central rolled around…I wasn’t the least bit motivated to make the effort to watch The Office. Anyhoo, I decided to go to Micheal’s for a little creative outlet. Aaaaand, pretty much didn’t miss watching it. At. All. Oh, and I agree w/ you dear sister…some of the off-coloredness doesn’t make me sad that The Office fad is wearing off. :)
