It’s Not That I Don’t Like People. It’s Just That When I’m In The Company Of Others — Even

It’s not that I don’t like people. It’s just that when I’m in the company of others — even my nearest and dearest — there always comes a moment when I’d rather be reading a book.

I Bingewatched Felicity So Fast Up Until That Dreaded And Most Talked About Episode Of The Second Season.

I bingewatched Felicity so fast up until that dreaded and most talked about episode of the second season. WHY? Why did she cut her hair. I don't know why I had such a strong reaction to it but ever since my marathoning has turned into a slow jog. i'm still watching, but at a much slower rate. Like, one episode a month. But then I get this issue of Entertainment Weekly and I can't read it! Since the show ended the show has not been spoiled for me, I can't let it happen now. So I'm hiding this issue and trying to overcome my haircut issues. Also avoiding their Facebook because the "Did Felicity make the right choice?" articles are flooding my newsfeed. My fingers are twitching! I'm dying to know but have fear of spoilers.
