Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

I went to the student center for the free wifi and got to renew my Showtime app subscription to watch Penny Dreadful! I was so excited because I had no idea it was back.

So enjoyable.

And before that I watched Outlander: I had forgotten that crazy dinner party.

And then GoT: I'm glad that Ghost was there. . . I really thought that he would have more to do with it. But he did realize that Jon was back.

Also: enjoyed Bran's dreamwalking back to Ned's youth. More happy Stark family scenes: a reminder of what was.

Ramsey Bolton: Patricide, Matricide and fraticide all within an hour: some kind go Hat Trick of Sick Evilness.

BTW, I was somehow able to watch the premiere of Penny Dreadful before it aired: was that some special deal or is that normal?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm assuming Bran's dreamwalking is how we'll eventually find out about Jon's parentage. I thought Ghost would be more important to Jon's story as well.

I haven't seen the Penny Dreadful premiere yet because we were too tired to stay up last night.

was that some special deal or is that normal?

Special deal.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Tyrion and the dragons was everything. The mix of awe, fear and excitement when he puts his hand up to touch the dragon's neck was incredible The same with his delighted realization that the other dragon was putting his head down so Tyrion could reach the collar.

Yes - Tyrion and the dragons was excellent. And his comment afterwords.

Aren't they still chained though? Or did I just imagine hearing chains dragging after he'd unlocked the collars?

I think they are unchained.

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

They are definitely unchained. And free to wander the catacombs and round up some ROUS or something.

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

And free to wander the catacombs and round up some ROUS or something.

I didn't see anyone close the door...

Therefore, free to round up some Sons of the Harpy or something. . .

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

Go dragons! Scour the countryside! I'm more rooting for the dragons than any of the Houses/humans at this point, although Brienne and Arya could get me back pretty easily.

Also, have not quite teased out the Westeros/Torchwood connection but there must be one.
