Make a list of shows that everyone much watch and that you wouldn't even consider being their friend unless they watched them.
People think we become mothers when we give birth but the truth is we become mothers the moment we start calling our babies to us in our thoughts, dreams and prayers. Some paths are short and some are so long that you can easily forget where you were headed.
How I feel all of the time.

@kindbytealikat I *love* House. And Firefly had so much unfulfilled potential, I'm sad they cancelled it as early as they did. At least they gave us Serenity later? Although I feel the same way about Stargate: Universe. Ended before its time.

And thank you @emeraldduchess for reminding me about Great British Bake Off. I don't know how someone couldn't like the sound soothing British accents discussing how to make frangipan. I think it's so much better than American cooking shows!
