Preventive strike

I’m about to start a month long house sitting job, so I’m gathering my supplies. I really want to have some DVDs to entertain me when there is nothing to watch on TV. I could watch a television show, fall in love with characters, become completely addicted, and then spiral into a depression once I have to leave the cable TV zone. Sounds unrealistic? You obviously don’t know me.
I was a high school student when I fell in love with my first regularly scheduled scripted television show: Angel. Then, the show was cancelled. Not a big deal to sane individuals. But for me, I couldn’t stand it. I stopped watching all my scheduled TV shows. I refused to let myself become attached again just to have a show ripped away. To this day, I prefer reality shows because they lack plat lines that can turn into cliff hangers which can cause years of irreversible anxiety. So, tonight, I’m watching hockey and scouring my roommates DVD collection. After all, I doubt anyone would want me to revert to my post-Angel state... let’s just stay it isn’t healthy for one person to have that much hate within them.
