Power is back on thank goodness. The house was starting to get mighty cold.
Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

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.

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..."
Did y'all see that they are cutting the season short? Apparently so they don't have to hide the pregnancy even more.
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.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I'm actively trying to move to Traverse City, but that's waiting on getting a job or getting to a point in my current job where they'll let me work remotely. So I'm afraid I can't put in an offer. Pity--it looks like a lovely house.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ooh, what a nice house.

Would anyone be into facetime/gchat onerous tasking? Or non-onerous but boring? I need someone to chat with but also keep me on task, as I do things like organize my books or clothes, and was thinking maybe else would need that too, and we could do it with the power of the interwebs, instead of having to trade off coming over and hanging out?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I can't do it today, meara, but I'd definitely be interested another time.
