I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Office:

Shoe-La-La?

The Kevin-Lynn story is shaping up to be sweeter than I expected from any story line involving Kevin.

Words fail me on the A story. Other than, why am I not surprised Michael is a fan of Willy Wonka (for all the wrong reasons)?

Right? I didn't expect it to go that way when she came on the scene.

Punishingly Intricate

Shoe-La-La?

I have a friend who is a little obsessed with Man shoes and the occasions on which you must wear Man shoes so this KILLED me.

What is even happening?

Re: HIMYM

I had been been so aboard the Barney/Robin train, I'd completely forgetten I liked Robin and Ted together. Sigh. That was a sweet episode.

I agree, Cindy. I liked Robin and Ted together too, but I really respected their mature break-up (stealthily engineered by Lily as it was), so I don't actually want them to get back together only to break up again, as they'll have to.

Very good episode. (Although Lily did reaffirm herself as my least favorite character. What the hell.)

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

I hate Robin and Ted together, mostly because future Ted has referred to her as Aunt Robin, so it just seems like a waste of time to like them together. I like Robin and Barney much better. I loved all the stuff happening with Robin on the tv in the background! The Lily thing was stupid, and they're not really even trying very hard to hide her pregnancy anymore.

Ooh, I just hit play on last night's Colbert Report, and Neil Gaiman is the guest!

In all fairness, I think that I'd be as put off by the suitjamas as the nightshirt.

The nightshirt could be corrected simply by taking it off, but there's no fixing the wrongness that the suitjamas imply.

Always Anti-fascist!

Idris Elba's on the Office. He's still crazy-hot.

He certainly is. I admire the his character's restraint for not just tearing Michael a new one.

In other news, this may be the first time I've wanted to go looking for Office spoilers!

Jim's joke backfiring all day just made me laugh and laugh.

Poor David Wallace. He can't win for losing with Michael. I really like his character.

Oh, Michael.
