We can come by between classes. Usually I use that time to copy over my class notes with a system of different colored pens. But it's been pointed out to me that that's, you know...insane.

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

People who flounce because Sean Bean's character doesn't make it to the ending credits have well-developed ass muscles.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Thing is? Stark's end was pretty clear. No one has fared particularly well thus far, so I have long been expecting everyone to die. So far, that's a good strategy.

Because books.

I sort of assumed a lot of the viewers would be the book fans, so that surprised me. And it seemed pretty clear from the get-go that no one was going to be completely safe in this universe.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I haven't read the books, but the foreboding is pretty heavy in this series. I assume that's intentional for the book readers.

GoT was nominated for 4 Television Critics Awards:

Potentially lost in all the buzz and conversation yesterday about the latest episode of Game of Thrones was the announcing of the nominees for this year’s Television Critics’ Association awards. Game of Thrones was tied for the most nominations with four (Justified and Parks and Recreation also received four noms). Thrones was nominated for best drama, best new program, best performance (Peter Dinklage) and program of the year. The winners will be announced in an unaired ceremony on August 6th. The full list of nominees can be found at the TCA’s official site.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

I'm almost through True Blood S2 and oh my how delicious is Eric!! I don't even like blondes, but i'd jump that tall drink o water any day. "Good night tiny humans", indeed. But why does he always look so sick? I get Bill looking all green skinned and red-eyed since he subsists only on artifial blood, but other human-drinking vamps look fine and it seems like Eric has ample access to the real thing. Did i miss something?

Man, I'm a wreck. I just marathoned all of Game of Thrones culminating with the season finale.

A year.

Well, I've waited longer for A Song of Ice and Fire to continue. . .
