F-R-I-E-N-D-S!

Any idea what you were doing on this exact date 10 years ago?

I was watching the Friends finale!!  (And calling Rachael, who was on her Senior class trip to Boston, to talk about it together).
The Frasier series finale aired the next week (a sad month for NBC).  Crazy that it's been 10 years!

Friends was on from 1994 to 2004 (my 4th grade year through my last year of college).  Rach and I started watching somewhere in the middle, but quickly caught up on the reruns and became faithful fans!  I distinctly remember the first episode I watched was the one where Joey and Chandler lose Ben on the bus, then have the heads v. tails debate ("What kind of scary-a$$ clowns came to your birthday party!?"). =)   Rach and I were well known for our love of Friends (they wouldn't let us be on the same Catchphrase team for that very reason. lol)  We even had a fun signature wall with the Friends logo painted on it in our game room!

(I'm so glad we at least still have the pictures.)

Anyway, I really love the heart of this show and still watch the reruns, and odds are good I'll still watch them if it's on 10 years from now!
The cast changed so much through the years - their personalities and their sense of fashion! lol  But so did everyone who watched the show, because a lot happens in 10 years!

So in honor of the 10 year anniversary, here are 10 random fun Friends quotes:

"Pi-VOT!!"  ~Ross

"Is it short for anything... like Ross-topher?"  ~Joey
"No, it's just Ross."  ~Ross
"Oh... pretty."  ~Joey

"Damn the jellyfish!  Damn ALL the jellyfish!!"  ~Monica, after being stung

"Well, that's not even a real fish.  No, that's a Goldfish cracker!"  ~Chandler

"Okay, Hannibal Lector... better roommate than you!"  ~Chandler

"Well, this is kinda out of the blue, don't you think?"  ~Eddy
"This is SMACK-DAB in the middle of the blue!!" ~Chandler

"Stephanieeeee knows all the chords!"  ~Phoebe

"She liked what she saw, did she?  Checkin' out the Chan-Chan man!?"  ~Chandler
"That was... surreal."  ~Rachel

"When is my birthday?  ...Would you care to venture a guess?"  ~Benjie (Greg Kinnear)
"(Picks a random date)"  ~Ross
"That's...not even kinda close!!"  ~Benjie

"What a great time to be alive! Look at this plate-bouncy thing. (Bounces the plates) What an inspired solution to man’s plate-dispensing problems!"  ~Parker (Alec Baldwin)
