This... probably qualifies me as slightly crazy.

I've been cross-stitching lately, which generally involves me putting TV shows I know well on in the background, so that I have something to keep me from getting bored with the cross-stitchiness.

Anyway...

Lately, my Cross-Stitching Background TV has been Lois & Clark, season 3. All very fun and entertainingly nutty.

Now, though, I've reached an episode I absolutely HATE. Not because it's actually all that bad - but the emotional stuff the characters are going through is just painful, and unnecessarily painful, and I don't want to watch that episode again.

Except...

I was kind of watching them all in order...

So, instead of SKIPPING the episode, and putting the NEXT one on for me to cross-stitch to, like a sensible person would, I have put the episode on, left the room, and retreated to my computer, where I am frantically reading websites and playing solitaire until the episode GOES AWAY.

...because, then, I won't have watched them out of order. But I'll still get to not watch this unwatchable episode.



Yes, I am indeed a loon.

You are fabulous and crack me up, and just so you know, I do the same thing sometimes. My Buffy S5 rewatch got derailed for six months because I just couldn't bear to watch "The Body" again. I finally said, "Hah, it's been so long since I watched the last ep, that it's not really a season rewatch anymore, so I can skip." And I did. And now I'm stuck not watching "The Gift"...

Heh. *pets you* It's not that bad, really...
