Dear internetz,

You basically exploded this week, didn't you? This week began with the announcement that Arrested Development would return not only as a movie, but with nine to ten new episodes.  I enjoy Arrested Development but the level of excitement that the internet produced was overwhelming.  I thought Facebook was broken because there was nothing on my feed that wasn't about Arrested Development.  I don't know whether to be pleased or disappointment that I could (almost) uniformly describe my friends as Arrested Development freaks.  Congrats freaks.  (I love you all.)

And then, on Wednesday we lost Steve Jobs.  Same as every time I hear about a celebrity passing, I didn't believe it at first.  I always think people are lying.  Though he was a great innovator and thanks to him I have a computer, a phone and an iPod, I did not feel his loss so intimately as others.  Again, my news feed was flooded with thoughts on his passing.  I was so tempted to post "This post is not about Steve Jobs" but decided against it.

Well internetz, this has been a busy week for you and I think you might just wanna take a rest next week.  Let's hope nothing big happens. 

It's Saturday and there's no new Doctor Who.  I know this feeling will pass soon, it just hasn't yet. 


love,
hannah
