Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Y'all I need more TV in my life!!

Only tangentially related, but I am a wild stress case right now trying to prep for my big event tonight. Wish me luck! I am always afraid of doing something stupid like tripping up the stairs, or making a student cry in public, or insult the speaker. Argh!

Ugh. My BFF is in the ER and being admitted to the hospital for postpartum preeclampsia! Who knew that was even a thing?!?! But I'm super glad she texted me to let me know!

Also, Girl just semi-flaked on our meeting up to "chat about some things" (aka I'm pretty sure we're breaking up) tonight. Seriously? Ugh. It seems rude to break up over text after three months but...

Shows I am part way through but haven't finished because I suck at binge-watching: iZombie, OITNB, Master of None.

Shows I'm Still Watching on My TiVo: HTGAWM (though I'm not sure for how much longer), Grey's, Jane the Virgin, Mom (because it's a half hour show and easy to half pay attention to, it's not so hard to keep up). Quantico in theory, but I've got 4 eps on my TiVo suddenly...

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I was watching Star Trek: TNG while stationary biking. Since the new Daredevil came out I've switched over. I try to only watch that while exercising, which has probably meant an extra mile away or two under my pedals. Otherwise I'm watching SHIELD, Sleepy Hollow, The Great British Bakeoff, and a bunch of HGTV.

ETA: I hope your BFF recovers quickly, meara.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just downloaded the most recent ep of People vs. OJ Simpson. Have you been reading the interviews with Marcia Clark in Vulture? Fascinating stuff.

Yep!

Ugh. My BFF is in the ER and being admitted to the hospital for postpartum preeclampsia! Who knew that was even a thing?!?! But I'm super glad she texted me to let me know!

So scary! I hope they can just fix her up.

I did not name all the shows I watch, FTR. I watch a LOT of tv.

brillig

Oh! I also rewatch Lucy Worsley BBC documentaries and the various Historical Farm series. I love recreation shows where the presenters will occasionally just stop and laugh at themselves instead of having Drama!!!!

Our wings are not tired.

I got spoilers on this one!

Yikes, that is scary. Also, I am so sorry for all the BS with the flaky girl. You deserve better.

I have a sad about all the television programs I am not watching. All I do is work with news, or HGTV, or recorded late night tv stuff in the background because I don't have to pay attention. I miss actual drama. So many shows. Someday. Maybe when I retire.

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

Timelies all!

What I am watching: Supergirl, Flash, Agents of SHIELD, Arrow, Underground, Legends of Tomorrow, Grimm and Once Upon a Time.

Stuff piling up on the DVR: Gotham(I think we're dropping it), Guardians of the Galaxy, Marvel's Avengers Assemble and Avengers(the British show from the 60s airing on CoziTV)

In other words, a whole bunch of genre tv and Underground.
