If I just lay here, would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Watching Greys Anatomy last night was an intense experience. I think in those 2 hours I experienced every emotion. Anger, sadness, emptiness, sexuality, loneliness, frustration..just to name a few. I was amazed at how well they captured the emotions that so many people feel in day to day situations. Some shows that I watch are entirely unrealistic. Especially after being in law school for a year I see things happening and I know is not even constitutionally possible. While I do not fully understand medical jargon I do have a general idea that some of the medical "happenings" are not always probable. But I find its better for me to not really know what they are talking about b/c it makes the show more enjoyable. When Im watching Boston Legal or Conviction and they start using some legal term that I know I go into outline mode. Making sure all the elements are meant, but when I watch Greys Anatomy I can fully relax.

I dont really know why I relate so well to the show and the characters. I think it may be because I see a part of me in each of them. The hardness of Christina, the anger of Alex, the frustration of George, the hopeless romantic of Izzy, the yearn to be loved of meredith, torn b/w what you want and what you have of mcdreamy and never wanting to give up of Addison. Or maybe its because in the past I have considered a group of my friends to be my family (the debate team) Or possibly I enjoy it so much because I want a life like that. Im not really sure, but its probably a little bit of all that. I just cant help it, I love the show. It means something to me. It allows me to forget about my life for just a minute and live vicariously through them, and take their lessons and make them a part of my life later. It gives me perspective on things that are happening in my life. I cant explain it and I guess I dont need too;)
