I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Ahhhh, that was great! So much what I wanted. And the Rains of Castamere over the credits was fantastic.
Man, there's a lot to cover next week.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, shit, it's Sunday. Totally not a good sign that I managed to swallow a whole day and didn't notice...

Long weekends certainly contribute to that.

Well, the truly sad truth is that I clock weeks ticking over by the ER visit, and I had a panic that I had somehow missed it this week (when the headache doesn't move, it gets hard to tell) and needed to go into the office tomorrow.

Oh, yeah, that would be bad.
Man, I hate that that's your calendar.
I think you asked in Natter, but I'll answer here - I don't watch Girls. The ads looked like something I wouldn't want to watch, and then the reviews (both positive and negative) just reinforced that it's Not For Me.

I think it's funny, ita. But I also see your point about it. definitely, not the usual envy-filled aspirational type TV

Good episode. Well done, especially considering it was done on a TV budget. There are a couple of things I missed from how it played in the books - The chain across the bay, the even bigger fire, and "Renly's ghost", but it all ends up amounting to more or less what we got, so there you go.
