Gwen: Demon, OK? The whole nine—cloven feet and horns and teeth. He wasn't wearing lamé though. Lorne: Yeah, the evil ones can't pull it off. It gets camp.

Did you see the Charles Bronson & Elizabeth-Montgomery-as-a-brunette post-apocalyptic episode? It's amazing how many actors I recognize in the old Twilight Zones.

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

I remember that one! He plays a man losing his sanity very well.

The deadline to switch over to the new card/payment system for transit is approaching. I've been hanging on to my old Chicago Card for as long as possible, but I won't be able to reload it after May 1st. It's not even that I'm resistant to change (although I can be), it's that they launched the new system like eight months ago and it's STILL pretty crappy and the subject of a class action lawsuit.

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

I am liking Grey's, but I hated the ep that looked at the possibilities of Yang's life based on her decision at the elevator.

I decided to alternate my Grey's and Scandal binge, and I just watched the episode before that one of Grey's...

This is what I'm always saying at work. I'm not resistant to change per se; I'm resistant to (a) unnecessarily changing something that works, and (b) incompetent change that makes things worse. These two things tend to go together.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I've been carrying both cards around for yonks, but the Ventra isn't even activated.

Perzactly.

I'm not even kidding about how happy I was to get my Chicago Card back after my lost wallet was returned.

In other news, I'm waiting on sizing info from my sister so I can buy my nieces today's Teefury shirt: [link]

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Pissed off at my cable company/box. Dvr is only half full, but it's not recording anything new. Checked scheduled recordings, and there's only one show listed, which didn't record the latest ep. I'm tempted to switch providers based simply on the boxes they keep giving me (the last one still had someone else's programs scheduled to record). It's Cablevision, ftr.

I once cancelled Comcast and sent their stupid box back to them, just so I could resubscribe a week later and get their upgraded box which they'd refused to send me.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Weather continues to be ridiculous. Yesterday's rain/sleet was the topper.
