ita, agreed on your white-font. I really liked the set-up for AJ's character though-- the ex-military genius cryptographer or whateverthehell she was doing, with a bit of a formal awkward manner, but obviously a quick-study. Here's hoping they don't make her too slick too soon. I'm very meh on the lawyer though, who's too patently put there as Daly's love-interest.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

The status is NOT quo.
My mother was pure evil in the morning. Not only did she sing ("Rise and Shine" or "Good Morning"), but she also frequently squirted me in the face with a water gun. She would also put easy listening on REALLY LOUDLY. I have a stone hatred for Barry Manilow as a result.

I can't even.
My father was the obnoxious waker-up in the family. He was always gone at the crack of dawn during the work/school week, but on the weekends, no sleeping in for us, no sir. "You're wasting the day!", he would bellow, channelling the drill sergeant-major from his RAF days.
Now, as a retired person, he's seldom out of bed before 9am and I am a confirmed, dyed-in-the-wool night owl/sleeper-in.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Good Morning Song my mom sang:
Good Morning Mary Sunshine!
Why do you wake so soon?
You frightened all the stars away!
And chased away the moon!
To this day, I'm not sure if she was saying that Mary Sunshine was really ugly and if so, why did she sing it to ME??? Implication that I was ugly enough to scare away stars and moons??

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Singing mothers. Weird.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I am almost completely uninterested in series tv this year, it seems, and it makes me sad. I just started watching Alias, but can't really get in to it, tried Grey's Anatomy, but wasn't into it, etc., etc. Not being home most evenings doesn't help, either. I just feel so cut off from the community!!
My must-watch-on-the-night-of TV shows right now are Survivor and I just got into Arrested Development.

Well, not all of us can have the sooper cool moms who fling rats around by their tails. Believe me, I'd rather have the rat flinging as a kid than the "You're so ugly, you caused the heavens to disappear" song singing mom.

Coding and Sleeping
My kids are sort of cute when I have to wake them up. Leif just collapses on my shoulder, and Emaryn sort up communicates in grunts before she gets up and wanders around like a zombie.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

My mom sings all. the. time. It's like being in my own private Rogers & Hammerstein hell. Her usual morning song was "O What A Beautiful Morning" from Oklahoma! Oy. AND oi.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Dear Aimee - nothing in that song says anything about ugly. People scare animals without being ugly.
