This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

Thrive to spite them

Shrift -- I'm so sorry.

Deena - healthma to your Dad.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Shrift, I'm sorry about your cousin.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hmm. The OC hasn't been even remotely funny this ep so far (and I don't expect that to change in the next two minutes -- ohh! gun!,) but I think they're doing really well at hitting emotional notes.

Art Crawl!!!

I know, ita. I mean, I kind of prefer The OC to be funny but I'm not sure how it would have worked in this episode.

move out and draw fire

Oh, shrift, my sympathies. That's terribly hard.

Deena, lots of health-ma for your father.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Congrats, Ouise!

Happy belated birthday, Corwood!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm just gonna copy -t for a minute here:

Congrats, Ouise!

Happy belated birthday, Corwood!

It's rainy here. NOT condusive to the long walk I was going to take.

And I finally "got" that the Matchbox Twenty guy and the Veronica Mars guy do have the same name. But are not, presumably, the same person.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The OC was definitely not funny, but I liked how they handled the emotional stuff.

I do wonder at Julie's denseness, to think that shacking up with her ex the day after her husband who was about to divorce her three days before their prenup expired won't look just a wee bit suspicious. But I guess if she was going to be a murder suspect, it would have come up this ep.

I watched CSI. And then ER because...well, I don't know why. And then the OC. Conclusions: avoid ant infested decks and guns. And Sandy's eyebrows are getting increasingly distracting. Oh and why shoot Trey? Why not just bash him over the head with something heavy? I know, plotwhatever, but lame.

sarameg, you forget that Marissa is lame.
