Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

I think what I liked best, tonight, was hearing the "Flight of the Bumblebees" following the slushies down the hallway, seeking out their targets. Hee.

Oh for sure. Even if structurally it's got that basis the television medium allows them to fill in those brush strokes, if I'm not totally overworking the metaphor. And even a sketchy as they started out, there've always been layers, some of them kind of unexpected. What's her name, the main guy's wife, for example, is unexpectedly sympathetic. Which makes him actually a lot less likable than that role might typically be conceived.

The sister in law and Sue (mostly) excepted, of course.

I'm totally high on Puck right now. And I kind of fell in love with Kurt tonight.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jane Lynch played Julia Childs' sister in Julie & Julia.

I don't find her sympathetic at all. I understand how she got into the situation, but she would have been better off pretending that she'd lost the baby. I wouldn't have liked it, but I could wrap my mind around it. the fake pregnancy is too much.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

OMG, really??

It's only a short role, but memorable.

I missed the first 20 minutes of Glee. How the heck did Puck and Rachel get together ?

His mom guilted him about not dating Jewish girls.

ETA: And immediately thereafter he had a dream about her climbing into his bedroom window and concluded God wanted him to get into her pants.

Oh, I remember the character, just didn't realize it was her.
