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

That is how I feel about TV. There's so much! And I'm more behind on movies.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm feeling pretty good about my decision to quit American Horror Story for good in the middle of the first episode.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I still haven't seen the last episode of Jane the Virgin from last season. Or the last episode of iZombie. Or any of the current Doctor Who. Let alone stuff that's premiering.

I think we gave up on Fear the Walking Dead, despite a mutual love for Cliff Curtis.

Also, fact learned from Facebook today: The guy who was the singing voice of Aladdin in the Disney movie also played Tucker in the Buffy episode "The Prom."

Never seen any of those! Or Walking Dead, much less FTWalking Dead! I have, otoh, decided to try Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.

Nice going, Facebook!

So, I've been taking one Tylenol and three Advil every four hours (unless I'm asleep) since I got my current temporary crown (about two weeks now) and that's been clearly necessary as if I was even a little late my tooth/gum/jaw/face would give me significant discomfort. On Saturday I forgot that I would not have access to the little bottles of OTC pills I keep at my desk and so went all day without, and that was not great, but I got back into my routine Saturday night. Whether it was from missing a bunch of doses or just the healing is going, today I am getting the discomfort a half hour or so before I am supposed to take the next dose.

I have a bad feeling this is a sign of impending root canal.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I spent the weekend catching up on Arrow and the Flash, so now I am only behind on SPN, and pretty much everything from this season.

I am tempted to watch Crazy Ex-Girlfriend largely because I ended up liking Jane the Virgin so much. Although I am going to wait and see what the buzz is (including, now, Jesse's opinion)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Is Crazy Ex-Girlfriend supposed to be good? I have to admit the entire concept turned me off as soon as I saw the first commercial.

But then I also thought the idea of Jane the Virgin was ridiculous, but it's gotten rave reviews, and the only reason I haven't watched it is time.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I'm working my way through the current season of Face Off.

Ninety more minutes of work and then I just might take a nap. The weekend was busy and my brain is demanding downtime.
