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

I was VERY pleased with the winner. I screamed out loud in my house.

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

I whooped for real, not just typing!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I don't think I made an out-loud noise, but I was also VERY HAPPY. They all did great work, and I always love seeing the stuff in motion. It's even more impressive that they can actually move like that!

I do still have a crush on Tate, though.

That's totally reasonable.

Compassionately intolerant

I had a massive crush on Tate and really wanted him to win Face Off.

I think Laura is a better practitioner but she does not bring the same level of creatively and emotion to the work.

I hope that the exposure brings them both the work they want.

Finally catching up on last week's TV--OMG, Marie is awful. ...I worry I would be that awful person, if I were on, though.

Though, as one said, they couldn't sing and couldn't dance, which aren't qualities teams focus on when they figure they can make it to the en

Hah--when they all got to the masquerade part, I was afraid they'd have to waltz, and was like 'but they JUST danced!"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Many comments after watching the full week of The Voice:

Oh, man! I'm so bummed out for Shelbie Z.! I'm also sad for Stephanie Ann Johnson, even though I didn't think she was actually the best. (Apparently I am repping for the big girls tonight.)

Hey, Team Adam can actually sing as a group! Well, he has at least one professional background singer and one college a capella vet, so at least the two of them know how to sing harmony...

I kind of hope Matthew Schuler becomes a big star just because he has such a regular name and that makes me laugh. It seems like it will come down to him, Tessanne Chin, or Jacquie Lee, don't you think?

Watching TAR--

I had no idea there were that many kinds of dates. I want to try them all.

Also, I feel bad that the girls all have to wear long sleeves and pants while the boys don't. That said...baseball wives, I find it really hard to believe LEGGINGS are appropriate.

Jason's accent continues to entertain me. He was in the cah, yes he was. I would be fine going around the track, but would want to close my eyes and scream, not keep them open!

I would long since have passed out from the heat, though, I think.

And all y'all who expected last week to be non-elimination were almost right!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

The race car task is one of those that is deceptively hard -- coming right off an adrenaline-inducing descent and right out into a car going seriously fast. Not the best headset for being observant and having a working memory.
