Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

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.

Well, you certainly taught that cat a lesson she won't soon forget.

Well, it did get her taken back outside. And frankly, I'm a big freaking softie who is headed towards her doom.

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

Be strong, sarameg, be strong.

Don't let her wear you down.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

When that tortie looks at sarameg it's seeing a winning lottery ticket.

Dressed in tunafish.

Quotation from the Grey's Anatomy writer about George, with which I heartily disagree: "the guy women appreciate but girls don't love." (from a mildly spoilery TV Guide article). If that's what she thinks...well, maybe I'm a girl (bite me), or maybe she's writing him wrong. As a woman, I'd appreciate a man with more spine.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I put my laundry in. Do I get a cookie?

eta: I'd appreciate having George around to do my laundry. Do you think that's what she meant?

Oh my God my procrastination has reached epic proportions. Epic, I tell you.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I like George. George is cute, and smart, and loyal, and going by the elevator scene, has hidden depths of spine. Also, having a really good job doesn't hurt. I've had enough of those passionate, passion-inspiring men who all turn out to be dangerous, either to the body or the heart. I would happily marry George.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm going to interpret the rest of that quote as meaning that he'll get his shit together, spine-wise.

Also, the guy who plays Alex has five kids in real life? Dag.

If he got his act together and stopped being such a pushover, then sure. Which guy's not better for being fixed?

I'm not a fan of hidden depths of spine. It's one step up from a fixer upper, but still -- why can't you be apparently spineful? Instead of surprisingly so?

I can't think of one.
