Random musings in HKIA

So sometimes when I watch Aaron Sorkin shows or movies I think to myself "Man, I wish people actually talked to each other that way. I wish we could all just talk quickly and intelligently with wit and timing that would put the best comedians to shame."

I also occasionally think, especially when watching The Newsroom, "Man, I wish we could all be that emotional at work without getting into trouble with our bosses about what is appropriate in the workplace and what should be kept to one's self to store away for a long night with a big bottle of scotch."

Then I rewatch the movie / series and think "Man. Now I know what my husband means when he says that I have to have the last word in all of our arguments, and possibly more importantly, what he means when he says I need to learn to let things go."

As a result I'm thinking that Aaron Sorkin would make for a very interesting friend, but a really annoying husband. 

I also want to watch The Newsroom again. You win this round, Sorkin.
