The following is a transcript of a conversation between Arielle (my esteemed lady) and myself, recorded in secret by Valerie Plame (who by the way has unexpectedly rocketed to the front of the class as my new "celebrity" crush. I mean, come on - she's a real life spy! How smokin' hot is that? Move over, Megan Mullally.):
Arielle: So do you know what you're going to write your journal about tomorrow?
Me: No, not really.
Arielle: Well... the first season of Bosom Buddies came out on DVD.
Me: Uh huh.
Arielle: Maybe you could write about that.
Me: Generally when I write about something, it helps when I have some sort of opinion about it.
Arielle: Your opinion could be "The first season of Bosom Buddies coming out on DVD is awesome."
Me: That sounds a lot more like your opinion than mine.
Arielle: You could also write about how Holland Taylor who played Kip and Henry's boss at the ad agency in the first season and their "not so silent partner" in the second season was later on the show The Naked Truth with Tea Leoni on which Tom Hanks guest starred in the second episode.
Me: Shouldn't I save great material like that for my novel?
Arielle: OR you could write about how for the DVD they didn't spring for the Billy Joel song, so there's some weird imitation theme song for the show now. Can you imagine how jarring that must be?
Me: I'm sorry, I just don't see how I could write something interesting about the DVD release of Bosom Buddies.
Arielle: Sure you can. I believe in you.
See? I was right. The lesson to us all: never believe in me again.

HAWT.
I'm glad you listened to her.
Both the discussion of the DVD release AND the mention of The Naked Truth were great additions to your journal as a whole.
I'm also horrified by the lack of fan appreciation the people distributing the DVD have for putting some crap theme song on there. Billy Joel would not be Billy Joel were it not for Bosom Buddies. I'm just sayin'.
What happened to your celebrity crush on Sarah Silverman?
I want to see a picture of your girlfriend.

Here you go.
