Oh my God, gorgeous. I'd be the person harassing you on the street to explain how handsome your dog is, even though you already know it.

Hm. I have a face like the prow of a battleship and hips wider than the Grand Canyon. Shouldn't I be married with 11 children by now?

My cat really, really annoyed me when we adopted him. He would wake me up at 2 AM kneading the back of my neck with his sharp claws because he wanted food, and any time he was displeased with me he would poop NEXT to the litter box instead. He had been a stray for an estimated three years or so before the pound caught…

Whateva. I have a cat that I like and a new stray cat who I kind of...sometimes tolerate...but my dogs are my babies. They give me a reason to go outside and keep me company while I hide in my introvert cave. They hang out with me and are always up for whatever adventure I take them on. My cats bug me for food and the…

I once did not realize I had poison ivy on my hands, and apparently I was just a touchy touchy little woman that day. Rash. Everywhere. Including my belly button!

I thought it was the little tidbit from the "You hired me!" scene that first got Bob interested in Pete. When you're looking for an opportunity, a person in power who gives you any sort of endorsement becomes important.

Bob is definitely a schemer. T&LO pointed out early on how similar his name is to Don Draper, and now we know that his whole character is basically a proto-Don. It will be interesting to see if he has a similar rise to power. And I think for the time being I will assume he was actually infatuated with Pete. Lucky for…

Sally is so her mother. For better or for worse.

Can we talk about how crazy this episode was?

I usually get a bit woozy spending more than $20 at a time, but yesterday I bought a kayak. Totally worth it. Otherwise, I'm a total tightwad, even now that I have enough income to start stuffing up my savings account. Poor is a mindset, people! A totally healthy one.

The sad part is that you're complaining about everything being taken as sexist by using a very sexist term. Where exactly do you think "pussified" came from?

Weird, I always thought Sansa was the most beautiful lady on the show. Her hair is upsetting sometimes, but she looks like the kind of girl who will grow into a gorgeous woman.

God yes. That whole scene with Bran and Sam I was saying, "OH HERE COMES COLDHANDS. YES. AWESOME EPISODE."

Book spoilers ahoy!

Wow, I don't know if it's lucky or unlucky that you started with Secretariat. Marguerite Henry and Walter Farley introduced me to Man o' War, which is how I started following modern racing. I wish I could have been around even to see horses like Holy Bull, Cigar, John Henry, or Spectacular Bid in person. There've been…

It ended up only being exciting for the folks who bet Palace Malice or Oxbow anyways. :P Definitely a very divided three year old crop this year.

This is the most kickass little chick I've ever hatched. It keeps trying to climb over the other eggs and then falling on its back and freaking out like a turtle.
