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.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Top Chef:

I so wanted Lee Anne to stay!!! I like her much better than Tiffani who I feel like would stab people in the back if no one would catch her. So proud of Dave, but Lee Anne's a better chef. Also, he needed to SHUT UP instead of rambling to the chefs about his dishes.

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

You know, I noticed that back in S1 and then completely forgot about it until now. Probably because nobody uses first names on that show.

ARGH!!!! SO tempting to read the Top Chef white font, but I still have most of TAR and all of Lost to get through before I even dare look.

And why on Earth am I spoilerphobic about Top Chef? Dunno, but I am.

Because books.

The funniest thing about Top Chef tonight, for me, was that the challenge would have sent Stephen into raptures of bliss. And, no doubt, endless pontificating about the wine, and the grapes it was made from, and where the truffles are found, blah blah blah... Heh. You LOSE, Stephen!

I would be spoilerphobic, too, Sean. I don't like to know anything in advance.

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

Today was much less irritating than yesterday was, in bunches of ways, and I flailed around enough to stumble into figured out something that stumped both the corporate librarian and our primary corporate filings vendor, and I have both F2F swag and Gothic charm school swag.

Yay.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It was all in Super-Secret goth code. Does that make you feel any better?

MUCH BETTER. She said, like, "flibbertygibbet" or something. I forget exactly.

Probably because nobody uses first names on that show.

Yeah, I don't know that I knew his first name before.

I am halfway through Top Chef and resisting the whitefont.

AmyLiz, you are so right about Stephen!! He probably wet himself when he saw this episode. HA!

Still really really wish LeeAnne had stayed. I really liked her.

Off to bed, but I can't wait to read Jesse and Sean's reactions tomorrow.

ChiKat, I like her so much more than Tiffani. So much more. Ah well. The final cookoff should be amusing.

I'm so tired, but I kind of want to watch the re-air of the Bette Davis bio on TCM. Maybe with popcorn...

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Gronk.

Today has been a long day. Had to deal with all kinds of stuff with students and professors this morning, which was all terribly awkward and putting me in the middle of stuff that I really didn't want to be in the middle of.

Afternoon studying.

Plus, I think I've got tendonitis in my wrist. Or, something. Writing hurts. Writing while wearing a wrist brace hurts less. Pretty much doing anything that requires turning my wrist hurts a lot. I think I'll see a doctor tomorrow.
