I happen to love it when I don't discover a TV show until it's completely run its course and I can watch the entire series from start to finish without the annoyance of waiting during a hiatus for new episodes.

Do Not Call
As most of you are aware, I recently changed jobs. With that change, came a change in health insurance coverage. In my adult life, every full-time job I've had has provided me with some sort of health plan.
