So Robert and I finished The Office a few weeks ago.
Not gonna lie, season 9 was hard to get through. Not because we were prolonging the end, just because the season was rough. The show was never the same after Michael left, but that last season just felt really off.
But they redeemed themselves with the last episode.
As far as last episodes of shows go, The Office made pretty top ranks in my book.
I really judge shows based on the very last episode (cough The Newsroom cough I pretend it doesn't exist cough) and I'm not gonna lie, I teared up multiple times in the last episode of The Office.
I was thinking about the last episode today, and it made me have some serious The Office withdrawals.
So if you are too, then don't worry. I got you covered.
And finally, perhaps the best moment of the entire show.
Office, come baaaaaaaaaack. I love you.
"A few times in my life I've had moments of absolute clarity, when for a few brief seconds the silence drowns out the noise and I can feel rather than think, and things seem so sharp and the world seems so fresh. I can never make these moments last. I cling to them, but like everything, they fade. I have lived my life on these moments. They pull me back to the present, and I realize that everything is exactly the way it was meant to be." - A Single Man

The Politics And Stuff
I don't talk about politics.
Mostly because I know nothing about them.
I fully admit that I probably should learn something about politics besides really liking The West Wing but struggling to understand anything that happens on the show besides who's kissing who.
I think it would do our country an enormous amount of good if people my age - aka kids who have been out of college long enough to understand a wee bit about the world but not adult enough yet to really truly understand a 401k - took it upon themselves to be educated about politics (and in my humble opinion, saying you don't want Hillary to be president because she's a girl is NOT a good enough reason to not want her as president).
I mean have a comprehensive, basic understanding of politics. Enough that you could at least stumble through a grown-up conversation about politics.
I think that's probably how you know you're a true adult - you want to at least sort of understand big things like politics and 401k's.
And as much as I find politics icky and terrifying, I want to do some research or take a class or talk to someone who can patiently explain things to me.
But, until that time comes and I can say with reasonable confidence why I want to vote for someone, I 100% for sure can say that even if you don't agree with Obama's way of being president or whatever, you have to admit that he seems like a cool guy.
Like, even if sometimes I roll my eyes and say, "Thanks, Obama," I still think he got swag and we should be besties.
If you think I've lost my mind at this point, I submit this link of some awesome photography of the prez.

You won't be disappointed. Promise.
