Speaking of TV characters with schizophrenic moms, did anyone else see L&O:CI this week? I wasn't going to tune in (as usual--I watch the syndicated reruns, but not the first-run eps for some reason), but when I saw the episode description mention Goren having to deal with his mom while he's working a hot case, I changed channels. I love it when Bobby reveals personal details, and in this one, he ended the ep telling his new boss to fire him or not, he didn't care, and then stomped out. I'll be tuning into the next Goren/Eames ep to see how that resolves!

Although you have to wonder about a guy who doesn't tell his overprotective mom about his considerable promotion for more than two years, and only tells her because he lands in the hospital.

See, I've done dangerous things on the job that I didn't tell my mother about until the job was done and I was still alive, so...

But I guess that doesn't preclude you from wondering about me, too, huh.

Hey, 2:30 is almost 3:00, and I bet that 3:00 is here before I even know it, and then 3:00 is practically 4:00, and 4:00 might as well be 5:00, which is the end of the day WOO HOO!!!!! ....What? It's only 2:30? Ffffffuck.

OMG YES. I am in that hell RIGHT NOW. Fffffuck is right.

Happily my friend D. and I are emailing Bender quotes back and forth, so that provides stifled giggle distraction.

Well, there's not telling and then there's not telling. Details about your job definitely don't have to be shared. The fact that you're working in a completely different position than you had been since college though, especially since it was one you busted your hump to earn? I'd be bragging about that one ASAP!

On the "I watch too much TV, just like Sean" front, I'm not sure it was really a promotion, except in terms of excitement and being one of the guys-- at one point, Gil mentioned that the lab position Greg was leaving paid more.

Robot Devil: "Well it so happens that I'm in the mood to make a deal with you."
Bender: "Forget it. You can't tempt me."
Robot Devil: "Really? There's nothing you want?"
Bender: "Hmm. I forgot that you could tempt me with things that I want."
