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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh yeah, Scandal was extra horrifying this week. Yikes. Did y'all see that they are cutting the season short? Apparently so they don't have to hide the pregnancy even more.

Because books.

Snowpocalypse indeed. I don't think they expected it to be snowing like *this*. Roads are closed and there are accidents all over, nothing's been brined or plowed. Yikes.

You know, I don't even watch Scandal, but I'm dying to know what happened in this scene that horrified everyone!

Sox, so glad you are all okay. Tell T I said you should get a Forester. He always appreciates my unsolicited advice.

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

Precipitation seems to have stopped. Streets here are mostly just wet, I see a few cars zipping by on the main road. It's supposed to get to 45degF tomorrow, so it'll all be gone, but tonight when it freezes it's going to be dangerous. I hope my family decides to stay in DC instead of coming home after the game. But they won't, of course.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Power is back on thank goodness. The house was starting to get mighty cold.

Having just watched that scene, I'm gonna say - not less horrifying, exactly, but less surprising, probably. Because how very fucked up Scandal is is a large part of its charm, really. Also Olivia's coats. Her wardrobe in general is pretty great, but her coats are really wonderful.

Yes!! Roommate tried on a sweater-coat-poncho-thing at the store last weekend, and i was like "It's pretty, very Olivia Pope, not sure it's you..."

Ooh, I did not. Interesting. I was wondering if they'd hid, or write it in somehow (I mean, c'mon, what's one more crazy "Oh shit she's pregnant" among the other drama going on? It could TOTALLY be a storyline)

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

I did not! I hope they can fit in all the twists okay.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I too, think of Steph every time I see Mallomars. Possibly because until that conversation, I'd never noticed or heard of them before. (I have tried one since...not my thing.)

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Anyone want to move to Traverse City? My friends are selling their gorgeous house. [link] (I just noticed that one of those pics shows a framed photo that I'm in.)

My goodness, that house is very much to my taste! NSM my budget or geographic location, of course.

One of my half-pint jars broke while steaming. Disappointing.
