My DVR is an Emotional Library

Is it sad or admitting too much about myself to say that my DVR acts as a playlist of emotions that I draw from as I sit down to write?

Let me tell you what I mean. I'm working on this pilot right now and the one thing missing overall are these emotional interactions and intimate moments between an husband and a wife. On tonight's Tori and Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood, I was witness to their marital problems and their desire to keep their marriage together and to stay connected. I watched Dancing with the Stars and saw Pam Anderson's and Niecy Nash's emotional rumbas. It's like some people listen to music to get in a certain mood. This is the music I listen to when I need to get into a mood with a scene I'm writing. Its a bit sad and pathetic and too convenient an excuse when my boyfriend asks me why I'm watching the same scene from Real Housewives of NYC over and over again. But it's really said when Ramona tells Bethenny that she has no friends except for her then fiance (now husband) Jason and that she'll probably screw that up too. And to hear Bethenny beg Jill to just listen to her...well, I'm crying now. It really gets me in the mood to write some real characters. Thank you, reality TV. Sorry WGA. But I'm not in the union yet and this is great research.
