Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

Contemplating use of celebrities to frame a documentary on something so wrought. I mean, I get why, but I don't need Sarandon or Diane Lane or America Ferrara to forward the ...forward. But then, I sought out the documentary on the fistula clinic, so maybe I'm not the margin audience, I'm the given. But still, there's a taste in my mouth like glitter on shit.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Owen has been talking about Frankenweenie for at least six months. He's dying to see it.

In other news, we're having eye surgery for him tomorrow to correct his turned out eye. It's been turning out for a while now and he didn't respond to exercises or patching.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Tomorrow night is full of conflicty things. There is a meeting I have to attend at 7pm for the final silent auction that is on the 10th. I have TIVO set to record the debate. I hope to be home for Supernatural, but TIVO has that set also. Then there are the A's. If they win tonight and tomorrow they can take their division. At least I can peek at my phone for the score during the meeting.

Oh, and before all that fun, I have to go to CJ's school to talk with his ASL teacher. She has been out most of the semester so far and I want to know what the plan is to get the class back up to speed. They have had subs, but no one who is qualified to teach ASL.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I am just now watching Sunday's Good Wife.

I feel like they just ruined Kalinda a little bit, with the sleeping with her ex, and it makes me a little sad, and more than a little skeeved.

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

I feel like that was mostly another tactic she was using against him, but I'll need to see what happens next.

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

Why does that ruin her, Lee? What was she in regards to that side of her life that got compromised?

I guess it bothered me because I didn't think it as a tactic, but something she did despite herself, which doesn't seem like Kalinda to me.

She has always used sex to get what she wants, which I am more than fine with,

but this felt different and not Kalinda-like and wrong.

Hmm, I agree that she's always used sex as a tactic.

This? Yeah, I don't know. I just don't see why, really: if he was so bad that she fled Canada and changed her name to get away from him, why is she now willing to sleep with him? It's not like Kalinda to be in sexual thrall: she's the most controlled person in the entire show.

I also think that Peter needs to STFU when Alicia tells him to. And that Zach is going to get into serious trouble during the campaign, with the Youtubing and the porn.

No kidding.

The fight scenes really looked like they were desperately trying to hurt each other, which I appreciate. I'm waiting and seeing on the ex-sex.

Cashmere, I lucked into a sneak-preview screening of Frankenweenie, and it is ADORABLE. It's the best movie from Tim Burton in years, probably since Big Fish. And it touches on similar issuers, in a way.
