Always. Only you.

Magnet #120 - Zen

Today's magnet is in honor of last night's Daytime Emmys, which I have on DVR, and may get around to watching, at some point...but probably not.

Oh, how the times have changed. Not so long ago, I was stalking Radio City for when the tix went on sale in town. Now, I can't even be bothered to watch. How sad.

An online friend of mine gave me this magnet - apparently, the Zach and Kendall (Zendall) fanbase did some sort of campaign to lobby ABC Daytime not to break up our favorite little soap couple on All My Children.

As with all of my obsessions, my little Zen candle burned hot and bright - through fake marriages and real affairs, and real divorces and fake affairs; through blackouts and serial killers, crazy parents and crazier best friends; through secrets and lies; through divorce island and lobster slaying, and balloon New Year's and belly button balloons; through gardenias and pencil doodles; through many pregnancies and a voiced-over coma; through myriad "Always. Only you. / Always. Only us." declarations followed up by "where's the trust" conversations; through stab-stabbings and kidnappings, plus Shelters of Suck and Mardi Gras igloos.

But alas, The Powers That Be finally managed to turn me off of the show after three years of shipping the good ship Zendall. And, there's no real explanation for it.

However, I will say that had it not been for Zach and Kendall, I wouldn't have met a really great crew of online folks - folks that have become friends in real life as well. So, it looks like the soapy angst was worth it in the end.

And look! I got a magnet out of the deal, too!
