In the stereo: My So-Called Life (on TV)
Just watched a new Degrassi and saw exciting scenes for next week--Marco and Paige's brother finally get together. And they look so cute.
Jamie got me watching (ok, it's only been twice) Adoption Stories on Discovery Health Channel. Today, they had on a single gay man who adopted an 8 yr old. The man had long hair and tattoos. His partner was a fat older man with glasses who looked like a total dork. They totally looked weird together...but he supports the guy in his adopting, which he has always wanted to do. It was so cute. The other episode on today was also a kid, this one aged 10, being adopted. It's so nice when it's kids, and not just babies. Not that it's not cute when it's babies. The first episode I watched with Jamie had a couple who were currently adopted/foster parents of 22 kids! And they were all boys. And they all had disabilities, some really severe. The episode was focusing on an 18 yr old boy with Spina Bifida, among other things. He had lived in an institution of some sorts before the parents got him 10 years before. His parents were reluctant to let them adopt him! Hello, they obviously didn't want him anyway. When he turned 18, he decided it was what he wanted so he was adopted. And it was so cute seeing them all. They had an older kid in the room with the judge and the judge was asking him to vouch for all the other kids in the family, and that kid looked so excited about being in charge. Sooooo cute. Jamie thinks she may want to do social work involving adoption now. Awwwwwwww
