Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

And now Max and the Baroness get to sing a happy fun song about how you should just worry about yourself and let the Nazis do whatever they want.

edit: and they kept "Something Good" rather than "An Ordinary Couple."

Was that an evil woman? Or just behind in her dental work?

Scandal is inherently fucked up. All about the horrible wrong choices. They're at least consistent in that. My favorite character is Mellie. She's definitely got the most reliable compass on the show. Awful as she can be (deliciously so) she's the most self-aware and internally consistent, I think. She knows her true north. Just don't get in her way, she'll make you roadkill.

I got my new swimsuits today! So I was able to swim without an atomic wedgie that actually left marks last night (when suits finally go bad, they really really do.) Unfortunately, my face was still partially numb (last shot wore off 5 hours later- and it took 3 tries to get me all numb in the right spots and a 4th to tide me over for the final setting) so I ended up swallowing a lot of air because my mouth didn't work right. Let's just say that the belch that emerged when I stopped seriously, SERIOUSLY impressed the lesson kids. And then I started choking I was laughing so hard.

I'm now $550 poorer. At least they made sure I had and used a $50 off coupon?? Everything feels weird now, hopefully it'll settle and I won't need any followup adjustments. Love 3D tech that means they carve the tooth out of a block while I nap and read, based off camera imaging. Living in the future!

Latest round of cookies is fine, but too flat. Ran out of flour and I need extra to counteract the booze. Still taste good though. I'll dump 'em at work.

She's his protege but got mixed up with the other side. Or an other side, anyway. It's kind of convoluted.

I would watch the Mellie and Cyrus show all day long.

Yes. Though Cyrus actually gets his personal conflicted. Like right now.

And this next scene is our dream, brenda.
