Thank you for being a friend…

I’m a huge Golden Girls fan, and have been for as long as I can remember. I used to watch the show with my grandma, snacking on “ants on a log” and graham crackers, laughing together at the girls “shenanigans.” I miss Grandma now, and watching the Golden Girls always reminds me of her, and the time we spent together. Sure, people have teased me about watching a show about old ladies – I always just chuckle and point out that they’re hilarious. I hope to god that I’m as fun and full of life as the Golden Girls when I’m that age.
Whenever I’m home (and my boyfriend isn’t), I watch The Golden Girls on Lifetime at 6. And if for some reason I’m home during the day (as I was for the entire month of January when I was in between jobs), I also watched it at 9, 10, and 11:30 am (interspersed with episodes of The Nanny, which is also awesome). I’ve taken the “Which Golden Girl Are You?” quiz, and found out that I’m most like Sophia – hooray! I’m kind of waiting to live with my three best friends when I get old, so we can have similar adventures. So you get the picture – I’m a huge fan.
Being such a huge fan, you can imagine my surprise at learning that there was a spin-off other than Empty Nest! Apparently Golden Palace picks up in Miami, sans Dorothy, to tell the story of Blanche, Rose & Sophia running a hotel. With help from Cheech (yes, of Cheech & Chong) and Don Cheadle (yes, Academy Award nominee Don). I’ve watched a few episodes over the past couple of days (Lifetime is airing it for a limited time, since it’s only one season), and it’s pretty freakin’ entertaining. I miss Dorothy, and think Cheech is a little too much for the show, but still laughed a lot.
Seriously – I hope I’m as cool as these ladies when I grow up.
