slacking

so i have been totally slacking on this blog.  i really want to review each episode of the office as they come out, but im just not finding the time.  well, its more like when i do have the time, i choose to do other things.  i think i might just do one massive post with my thoughts and such.  and trust me, i do have a lot to say.
in other news, my life is pretty boring, which means i dont have much to complain about.  hopefully something comes up so i have something to write about.

why bother

yes, i realize i have not reviewed  'Baby Shower', so, for that im sorry.
but i also realize i am probably the only one who reads this thing so its not like im not letting anyone down.
anyway, i still plan on reviewing the episode, although it will mostly likely be in conjunction with this upcoming episode.
fear not friends, you will hear more soon!!

lets get ethical!

Episode 2:  Business Ethics

Bravo!  What a fantastic episode.  I really felt like this could have fit right in with season 2, which for those of you who are not as familiar with the entire series as I am, that is a very good thing.  This episode was funny and smart, and had some heart in it too, which I loved.  One of the things I love about the show so much is that at the end of the day, these are characters you love to laugh at, but also love.
Very much like The Client in season 2, this was another example of what I like to call Michael knows best.  It is very easy to forget why Michael became Regional Manager in the first place.  In this episode, Michael felt it best to ignore Meredith's unethical behavior, something Holly was not happy with.  Through the course of the episode, we learn that sweeping the issue under the rug was the best choice for the company, and regardless of this reasoning, Michael had made the right call, or "knew best".  
Another thing I love to see is Jim pranking on Dwight.  Their interactions in this episode were so reminiscent of season 2.  This was also the second time we got to see Dwight pee in a empty soda container.
Now, I could be wrong, but I think this episode will spark something we all know to be coming;  Holly leaving Dunder Mifflin.  I see this as the beginning of many instances where Holly either doesn't agree with something Michael does or feels uncomfortable by it that she will eventually want to leave.  Which is really a shame because Holly is so perfect for Michael.
Overall this was a great episode, and the rest of the season will be as good as this one, we are in for a real treat this year.

a few things...

  • the office was not on last thursday because of the vp debate, but that was equally hilarious.
  • i am astounded at how many couples from high school are still together.  
  • in reference to any hardee's commercial, i do not falling food apetizing.  in fact, watching my sandwich drop from the air makes me less likely to eat it.
