Okay, confession time. I really like this one TV show and on Sunday nights I participate in a Twitter rewatch with other fans (no, I won't fess up what show it is). Every Sunday at 9 EST/8CST I log into Hulu to watch a specific episode on my laptop and tweet away with the given hashtag, liking and retweeting others along the way. In some ways it's weird watching a TV show collectively with strangers on the internet, but in other ways it's nice to know that there's people out there who like the same things as you. The writers, producers, and actors jump in and participate as well. We dissect the music, the writing, the acting, or random things going on in the background that only someone who has watched the episode more than once would notice. There's a lot of reaction gifs involved on my part (which should surprise exactly no one who knows me). I use a random twitter account I made forever ago and my profile pic may or may not be the same girl from the top of my blog (you'll never find me!). I don't tell anyone I do this (except, well, I guess I just did) because it seems like an admittedly strange thing to do, even for me. But for one hour every Sunday night, no matter how crazy or busy my weekend was (and it was- I took thirty students to an eight hour festival on Saturday all by myself because I am clearly insane) I get to nerd out over something I like. So there you go, that's my shameful secret.

I'm so intrigued! Stranger to stranger, what's the show? This slice is funny. It's so secretive yet confessional at the same time. Made me laugh but moreover, it made me wonder! l love your header btw. Smart and cute.

Well, it's not a secret anymore, that's for sure.

This is so fun! I watch the Bachelor ( guilty pleasure-- I've watched it since high school) and I follow the tweets and get a good laugh out of people's commentary. The people I follow on twitter are funnier than the show!

I'll have to tell you what my show is... it's sad and pitiful! It's not one I like to admit in public! Lol
