Oh, and I did the thing where I jumped in the pool of ice water after sitting in the sauna. Well, it wasn't actually ice cold, but it was fucking cold. It was a bizarre sensation - I have neurons in my skin I never knew existed....
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've got Wire in the Blood for my creepy understanding of the creepy, creepy bad people needs.
Ah, yes. I do love Robson Green on the scent of a criminal. The books were cool too.
I vaguely remember reading some meta about Mandy Patinkin leaving Criminal Minds. How was it handled in show (whitefont if it was recent enough to be spoilery for this season)?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
The books were cool too.I need to read them.
How was it handled in showUnbelievably, mostly. Gideon was meeting an old friend from college and Frank the really insane guy from the previous season who killed lots of people but loved the not quite sane, Jane, killed the old friend from college. He had a crisis of faith. Disappeared. Left a strange letter for Dr. Reid at his cabin because Reid was the one who needed the closure. Sadly, he failed to leave one for the show's viewers. I think I got the names right.
As good as the first ep with Frank and Jane was, this one sucked and blew. I like to pretend there are meta reasons for this and that it wasn't just bad storytelling.
But there were a few *amazing* Garcia and Morgan eps. Things that weren't neat and really had to play out. Those, honestly, kept me around.

Nutty - thanks. did a variation on your variation (somewhat blander) that worked out fine. First time I've been able to handle real food in a few days.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
It was raining pretty hard, with thunder and lightning, here earlier.

It's going to be a sunny day, though only in the 50s. I may get some more yard work done if I don't go to see a movie....

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I just saw the guy who played Starsky in a commercial for debt consolidation.

Such a crush I had on Starsky.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just finished up some work I was supposed to do on Friday, so that's something... There's another thing I should probably do, but meh.
