When the Internet had breaking news of the "Friends" reunion coming up, a rush of emotions came over me. Mostly ones of love and excitement, but then also some anger (at you, Matthew Perry). So instead of putting all of you through the confusion of how to handle your emotions, here are the steps of how to contain yourself before the big day:
Step 1: Breathe
Deep breaths, this is actually happening.
Step 2: Read on, make sure this isn't a joke.
Okay, now that we established this is real, we can start to get excited.
Step 3: Let out all the excitement jitters.
Once you compose yourself, breathe again, and reminisce...
Step 4: Think about how long you've waited for this day to come.
Step 5: Realize that Matthew Perry won't be there...
I've never felt this type of betrayal before and I'm not handling it well.
Step 6: Find out why Matthew Perry won't be there.
I didn't know it was impossible to take a plane from London...
Step 7: Forget about him, now start planning for your viewing party.
Necessities: wine, candy, and turkey.
Step 8: Think about all the food you're going to need for this party.
You know, since Joey doesn't share food.Step 9: Debate re-watching all 10 seasons on Netflix before the reunion.
You know, just so it's fresh in your memory.
Step 10: Re-memorize all the words to smelly cat and you're good to go!
Smelly cat, smelly cat, it's not your fault.
