Always Anti-fascist!

I used to know I think, but given the way my rings wobble on my fingers, if I were buying one now, I might want to adjust them.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Wow. I hated that episode of NCIS.

God, yes. That was sooo bad. Note to the showrunner: Please stop making everything All About Gibbs. Oh, and make sure Sean Murray eats something--the lighting in the final scene with the three team members sitting at Tony's desk made SM look gaunt. And he doesn't look any better in next week's preview.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

for Ziva to coyly say every woman knows their size "just in case"

Oh, well. That's different, then. Also kinda dumb. What's a girl supposed to do, tell all boyfriends her ring size "just in case"? Keeping the info to yourself doesn't help you get a shiny rock on your finger, now does it?

A smart boyfriend gets a ring that she already owns and has it sized. Of course, he might have a problem if she doesn't wear a ring on that hand :)

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

Or in my case I own no rings.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Way back, when I was ordering my high school ring, I had it sized for my left hand, because that's where I always wore rings. The guy taking down the information smiled at me and said teasingly, "Don't you want to save that hand?" I had NO IDEA what he was talking about. My classmates laughed at me, but hell, I always told them I was never getting married.

I've changed my mind, Universe. Is there a worthy and appropriate gentleman you could usher my way? If it's not too much trouble.

I want to find out if McGee finished his second book.

And I want to drown Bitch Lawyer.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I now hate the writers more than I hate Rena's character. They were playing needlessly coy with her and Gibbs' relationship last night, and I thought that stunk too.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one who thought the plot was lame. I still love the banter, but I'm about sick of them throwing new, antagonistic (real or seeming) potential love interests at Gibbs. It's old, old, old. Move forward, writers. I know they have a Bechdel test for female characters, but do they have a corollary for the men?

Cute trailer for the next Castle.
