A salute to meds and t.v. (again)

I am very impressed by the communicational skills exhibited by the characters on the O.C. For the past little while I have been, by and large, rather against california in general (discluding niki ). Through eliminating long drawn out dialogs, the O.C. gets to the core of many relationship dialectics that without a doubt haunt all of our lives. They replace useless circular discussion that cover the same points over, over, and over again. Ryan, Seth, Summer, Sandy, Marissa and others display a unique combination of humor, compassion, and a secret ability that was probably deveolped in califorinia. The ability to walk out. The gift to let drama happen, and then to move directly on to the next dramatic expeirence instead of just letting it linger, preventing future relationships from ever expeirencing the wonders of crying together, yelling at each other, and most importatntly, getting to know each other with great eye contact. I am trying to appropriate many of the valuable traits I have learned today, from watching 2 straight disks of the first season. i feel pretty good about having dreams and plans now. I have been a depressed skeptic for far to long.
