I'm pretty happy with my showerhead - what I want is a giant soaking tub. I look at my children able to stretch out in the bathtub with room to spare and my heart weeps with envy.
Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

There is the fact that your current place is not exactly puppies and rainbows in the way they treat you. Being a minnow in a bigger pond is not all bad if the minnows get treated with a modicum of decency - unlike your place where nobody gets treated with a modicum of decency. Or am I misremembering.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
The showerheads at my new gym are mounted directly overhead, hanging down from the ceiling (to accommodate tall people, I was told) and I'm finding that a little odd. There is no facing into or away from the spray, you're in or you're out.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, I was surprised to find I wasn't that crazy about the overhead rain shower dealie.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
CSI: New York is becoming bombastic and taking itself way too seriously. I don't know if there's a zero sum CSI game and it's reacting to the cancellation of CSI: Orange, but its tone is pretty laughable these days. I think these casts and crews are ill-suited to tell continuing stories about people. Stick to the problem-solving and stay away from the soap opera. Damn.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
oh no. I have not watched CSI:NY yet. I thought it got a bit too much in its own behind about 2 seasons ago and I was hoping it would let loose.
Hmm.
CSI:Miami has been canceled?

I have burned more calories than I have eaten today. I think that means I should have a cookie.
Eta: or three.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
CSI: Miami was cancelled last season. Ten fucking years, man. Think of all the watchable, intelligent, fun, etc shows that didn't get that ride or that money. However, a lot of bad actors got paid, so there's that.
LeN, this week's ep takes pretentious over-importance to a whole new level. It felt like the usual "crime scene investigators don't to that" was jacked up to eleven, plus...well, you'll see. These are just not interesting, charismatic, sympathetic people. I want not much more than problem solving and dubious science. Oh, but we do get so much more.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
The people that watch Catfish(and all the marks that wait to be on season 2, of course,) need to read Allyson's book too, because that show's conclusion is too often "Online relationships are bull," instead of the more accurate "How many supermodels do you think are really on Facebook?" and "People get pissed when you lie." I hate myself for watching that thing anyway, not least because the commercials make me feel like I'm a hundred, but I still can't stop.

I've moved seven times and traveled countless miles since I first had you, and you have been with me every step of the way. I miss my friends from college or Kansas or wherever, but I have never had to miss you.
This. I travel all the time, but at least y'all are always around!
And I'm also a "face shower, hit at neck/chest, or face away while streaming down head/back for maximum warmth" person. And would like I soaking tub. That sounds so nice right now, I have a horrible backache.
