Behind the Times

I have become addicted, but later than everyone that I know. With the movie release of Sex and the City, I found out how many of my close friends watched the show and loved it. I had never seen an episode in my life and imagined it as some hour long drama about loving and losing. Then when Ryan was on a business trip I stayed up late one night and caught a rerun. I never laughed so hard. I thought "wow, I'm really missing out on a good thing here". The entire week he was gone I watched reruns from the middle of the seasons and still loved it even though I didn't know all of the characters. Well, now I began renting the seasons and Ryan is watching the series with me. We are almost done with Season 1 (I'm sure we'll find time to finish it today because I am an addict.) Why didn't anyone force me to watch the series earlier?
