"I thought you might want this orientation binder..."

"No, Tobey. It's an orientation not a boring-entation."

Now, maybe it's just me...but now that the two Offices have merged and Stamford is now part of the Scranton office, the show has just reached it's awesomely amazing potential. And seeing Ed Helms work in the same scenes as Steve Carell is truly delightful.

I love the show for many reasons. One of the best reasons is the fact that it takes place in Scranton, and that's where Beef lives. Scranton is very much a part of my family's life. So, when The Office writers put into play songs like "There ain't no party like a Scranton party," or "Lazy Scranton," my little improv loving heart meets my Scranton family history and my mind explodes. IT'S AWESOME.

Also, we had our parent get together this afternoon, and we showed the premier, uncut version of The People Show. It was phenomenal. The parents thought it was adorable and the kids thought it was hilarious to see themselves on TV. Even better, Jason said he would edit it and put their names on it, which is so great. I love that guy. Seriously. The kids are going to be stoked if their names appear. I love my job.

Lastly, I think I need a tape-recorder. I have a lot of poetry that runs through my head all day long and a lot chapter ideas for my novel and I can never remember them all even when I go to write them down. I suppose it's kind of creepy to carry around a tape-recorder, but I don't care. I think it will lead me to a Pulitzer.
