"If Today Was Your Last Day"

No, don't worry (or, alternatively, don't break out the sarcastic applause) - today's post title does not mean it's the end of this blog.

It's just my commemoration of my last day away from work after three months of physical issues - I go back to my retail grind at noon tomorrow, and, shockingly, I'm almost happy about it.  OK, I am happy my life will finally get back to some semblance of normalcy, so there's that.

And, no, I am not going over to the dark side and becoming a big Nickleback fan, either (having said that the above song is pretty good).

Of course, on the first Tuesday night I won't be near a TV in months (at least for part of it) USA Network decides to air a lengthy Modern Family marathon (9 episodes with one of their crappy original shows stuck in the middle at 10 o'clock) for the first time in weeks.  And it's quite a good one from an Alex standpoint: "Come Fly With Me" at 7 and "Under Pressure" at 10:30ish, and a few intriguing ones ("Two Monkeys And A Panda", "Dude Ranch", "Yard Sale" and "Best Men") mixed in.  While they don't do one-character themed marathons anymore (I think) that's as close to an Alex marathon as I've seen from them in quite some time.
[EDIT: I just saw a commercial on USA during RAW - it turns out it is an official Alex marathon after all].

And then on Wednesday ABC airs a repeat of "Patriot Games", the best episode from last season.

So, see, yes I can still type out a somewhat happy column once in a while...
