Also, laundering a sleeping mask is SO much easier than laundering those heavy curtains. Adding those curtains to your room is a nightmare for anyone with dust allergies.

Better than blackout curtains is a sleeping mask, because you can take it with you when you travel, use it in hotels, on the plane, etc., etc. Sleeping masks are reasonably inexpensive in the travel sections of major stores or in specialty luggage stores.

“Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think about wine pairings.”

You can do it the day before. Or if your oven has a timer function you can throw them in there in the morning and have them be ready when you get home.

I’ve actually been really happy with how ST has handled Will’s sexuality

Yeah, salt on the rim is too much salt all at once.

Alternately just mix some salt into the margarita.

I just got done watching a random K-drama scene that involved a group of women meeting... and talking... and furthering their own character development. Ah, I thought, passing the Bechdel test without even trying! That was refreshing.
