It's probably going to drive home the strange way in which the death of somebody goldens all memories about them as a person. Will was at times horrible to Alicia but you can't ignore the bond they had. They weren't quite friends, definitely not lovers and yet also not quite enemies by their last exchange (the ice was…

Also, just noticed the show has been picked up for a sixth season. Considering this, I'm glad they have time to rebuild, but I'm still worried about how we continue from here. This opens up a lot of opportunities but also a lot of ways in which the show could take a turn for the worse.

Hear,, hear. Will was an absolutely terrific character; definitely your typical shark-toothed lawyer who had no qualms about doing certain, somewhat immoral things for his own gain, and for the benefit of his firm, but at the same time Will was so much more, especially as we saw him in relationships with the wonderful…

I speculate that Peter tries to draw Alicia closer and she rejects him, and he doesn't quite understand why, and things finally boil over for their lukewarm, on-off-intimate marriage. He's been a fuckbuddy who she happens to be married to as of late; now she's embroiled in his stealing-an-election mess. Watching this…

At least we experienced the gutpunch in unison, then.

I welcome this. He's an excellent actor and a complete dreamboat.

Kalinda's character has got a lot of understandable flack as of late, and has been kind of dry and uninteresting so it would've made sense for them to kill her off, but this show did not, and yep, that definitely means something.

I just ..wow. It's difficult, and I love that touched upon the difficulty of this kind of a turn. It does throw up red flags. A devastating turn of events that brings tears to a viewers' eyes one week is in hindsight the very reason they felt like the show stopped being as good as it once was. On the other hand, at…

This mushroom-chickpea-spinach sautee has been amazing for me but I also realised I can't make it every other week, or else I'll get bored. So this week, aside from my hummus sandwiches to work, I'm trying a free-styled Italian stew/soup kind of thing with plenty of beans and veggies, a tomato-y broth and some pasta…

I can't decide if joining my current job was a bad life decision. It's in a dying industry and while it's a steady job, it's just not what I can picture myself doing long-term and I just don't know how it'd fit into my overall career graph. I don't know. I don't know where my life is going, and that's scary.

Booze cruise this weekend. So nothing much in terms of travel experience but old friends and plenty of drinking, so it can't be too bad.

*Vince McMahon walk*

I did, a part of why I messed up with the stove was because I was too engrossed in my broccoli-sausage-cheese-tortilla-chip omelette monstrosity/goodness.

It was a very cute smile, too, especially when it was inspired by Elsbeth.

True but let's not forget the power of internalized misogyny. It takes a lot of unlearning for all of us, no matter who we are, and it's good to remember the unlearning is a process. I catch myself at it, and I've been aware of this for over a decade now (as a feminist woman). Diane's not perfect, Alicia's not…

I think Moffat wrote Jeff out because he felt like now that Steve was going to be a father, he wouldn't have a friend like Jeff anymore - Jeff is like the friend you have when you're in your 20's, and when you mature to start a family, you leave those kinds of friends behind. I think maybe the actor also didn't want…

Have fun! I have a mini-vacay coming up, too - just a booze-cruise with some former college friends but I haven't seen them since last year so I'm psyched for those 24 or so hours we'll be spending together.

Fuck, my sympathies. I woke up with a hungover two weekends ago, so I made a ridiculously delicious omelette, then turned the stove off, or thought I did - turns out I didn't, and the pan was still on there. Suddenly my smoke alarm goes off, I panic, turn it off, open the balcony door (I have a tiny balcony), disable…

It does seem like it'll be Bryan's Mania, but it could also just be a way for them to get people interested about the main event and then put face-melting heat on either Orton or Batista. Probably Batista. It seems like such a bad idea, though, because if you leave WM on a sour note for the fans, it'll color the whole…

Yay, wrestling talk. Last Monday's Raw had some amazing moments. Yeah, calling it Occupy is kind of cheeseball, but that moment really struck a chord with me because a) it saved Wrestlemania and b) it's all come from such an organic place that even when WWE writes it as a storyline, it still feels quite real to me. I…
