I love The Office! Seriously LOVE IT! I've often joked about the joy that it brings into my life but it wasn't until last night that I realized just how much The Office means to me. I had our DVR scheduled to record the hour long Office special that was coming on after the Super Bowl. At 8:15 with the kids in bed and the house clean I turned on the TV only to see that we had NO SATELLITE CONNECTION!!! I almost cried (ok, I did cry a little). I really didn't think I'd be able to handle such a huge disappointment, especially after we were all geared up Thursday night for a new episode only to be let down by a rerun. So I called our satellite provider and tried to remain calm as they walked me through resetting everything. When it was up and running I saw that , lo and behold, it didn't start until 8:30! I hadn't missed a second. The universe was smiling on me after all. My incredible disappointment followed by my huge sense of relief really indicated how much I love this show (and perhaps how lame my life is otherwise).

You are funny. We love it, too. I didn't know that there was an episode last night...but my BFF Tivo did, and lo and behold there it was, like an extra present underneath the tree. I'm glad you didn't have to miss any of it. :)
Hi, my name is Lori, and I am also addicted to The Office! I think the Dundies still ranks as my all time favorite episode. I love when Pam says "I want to thank God, because God gave me this Dundie..and I can feel God in this Chili's tonight!" Or the gay witch hunt when Dwight says "I think all office gays should now identify themselves" ") I just want to know when Pam and Jim are getting married! 1 <3 JAM!
You are not alone in your addiction! We love it around here, too. It would have been a sad night, had we missed it. Glad you could see it.
Admit it, you have a crush on Dwight. Hey, I think he's free now! Go for it!
So you know, our current situation keeps us from watching it live on tv so we just download the new episodes every week from the computer.
The post-super bowl episode was FANTASTIC. However, my favorite episode is still "The Coup."
We watch it regularly too, and it seldom disappoints. My favorite is Dwight; he is a character like no other. Creed is pretty radomly funny too. I have to admit, it can be SO uncomfortable to watch sometimes, though. Robin actually had to walk away during Michael's shennanigans at Karen's office.
