A Lesson From Friends

High strung Passionate Perfectionist freak Manic Compulsive Meticulous Intense High maintenance HIGH MAINTENANCE MONICA Yes….I see a lot Monica in me. “You think I’m high maintenance???? Tell me how. Make a list and we will go over it POINT by POINT!” She spouted this out while trying to convince Phoebe otherwise. Well, I’m high maintenance because I feel, extremely!! Perfectionist!!! (Melancholy/Sanguine with a touch of crazy!) When God created me….He placed emotional sensors in every single cell of my body, it seems….INTENSE! Well, yes, it CAN be hard to handle….But listen, LISTEN to what Chandler says to Monica that makes him like the most amazing guy on Friends. “Yes, you ARE high maintenance, but that’s ok because….I like maintaining you!” You wouldn't exactly consider that some sentence that is dripping with passion and romance, but wow! That would make me FLY! :) Eileen Manassian Ghali

It took me a while to realize you were writing about the tv show!! WAs Monica the dark haired one? I have such a bad memory!! This was great to read your thoughts. Sometimes we get really invested in the characters of our favorite shows!

Oh...tiring, Kenny...lots of cleaning...uggggggg...oh well, such is life. Yes, we should watch some of them again as well... :) Soft spot for Rachel, eh???? Hmmmm...she is a sweetie! I felt so bad when Brad Pitt left her for Jolie...SERIOUSLY! Life is sad, but Jennifer Aniston, who is half Greek, by the way....will find Mr Right!
