i mean, i have no idea where the time has gone (maybe it goes to the same place in the dryer that all of those missing socks go, too), but all of a sudden we’re in the middle of premiere season. as in, all of our favorite shows that we’ve been waiting so patiently since may to have return to us are indeed returning to us.

i mean, let’s not even get me started on parenthood. they must really be going for the highest tears to episode ratio this season. but i don’t mind, crying is kind of my thing, SO BRING IT ON, HOWARD, GRAZER, AND KATIMS.

and then there’s this guy.

and the rest of the pawnee gang who finally return to our television screens THIS EVENING, 9:30 p.m./8:30 p.m. central.

i mean, i can’t even wait.

welcome back, tom haverford (you, too, ron swanson). you’ve been missed.

and if you haven’t jumped on the parks & rec bandwagon (i myself was a bit tardy to the party), pu-leeze do yourself a favor and hitch a ride. because where else are you going to see gems like this? (hint: nowhere). so come on, treat yo self.
