Good Queen Jane

I've had this happen several times yesterday and today.

When Robyn was going on to Misti about sometimes people you trust go behind your back to do things to protect you, all I could think was, are you listening to yourself, Gurl? Apply that to Delilah and Mel.

3/5, thanks to TOC being over, Speaking of Champions, Happy Birthday, @saber5055, our beloved Supreme Adjudicator.

Me too! This makes me feel much better that I wasn't the only one.

0/5. My mind went to Hebrews for Wednesday's FJ, but I knew that the experts had removed Paul as its author, so I chose Romans thinking it was a trick clue on the writers' part. The burden of too much knowledge! But since I love pie most of all desserts, I will happily join the pie table. I will bring a honey vinegar pie, which is surprisingly delicious.

It was good to see Sue again. Even with her plants and cats, she’s the most connected to reality person at MQ.

Thank goodness! I thought it was just me. I was getting ready to call my ophthalmologist to get my eyes checked.

2/5 BUT WITH AN *!!! I was so excited that I got a TS in the Tournament of Champions, I texted all my friends (most of whom did not care).

The British crowd is certainly enthusiastic. They’re cheering everything including falls. Alexa and Brandon are certainly showing last year’s World Championship wasn’t a fluke. (I know, no Russians or Chinese, but when has the US done this well in Pairs?)

This is in place of Cup of China. China declined to have a Grand Prix event this year, presumably because of fear of foreigners carrying COVID.

They are running a race now, See the threads for Season 35 Spoilers.

According to the blog referred to above, they taped all six of the TOC games AND the exhibition game in one day with the exhibition the last taped. No wonder Ken was swearing after that long a day!

WADA is finally tired of waiting for Russia to finish investigating the Valieva doping case.

1/5, no*. I'm blaming my score on having to do most of the games via archive because of World Series preemptions. That's my story and I'm sticking with it!

I want Jason to do his greatest hits, Sinnerman for the short and Riverdance for the long.

2/5, no *. I knew Friday's FJ, but my tongue said Matisse instead of the correct artist.

Watched Skate Canada Free Dance. Charlie/Tanith/Greg have picked up some good young skaters. And they use happy music! Also glad to see that Mady’s snake hair lives on.

Didn't Liz make a deal that all the soldiers taken over by the Daleks and Cybermen be restored and released before she gave herself up? Although there wasn't anything shown, I'm assuming the bad guys kept the deal and all the UNIT folk were ushered out of the building before it went down.

Maybe Meredith has to take Zola back to her birthplace in Africa for some reason.

3/5, 1*. Still middle of the pack.

Gracie Gold is skating in Skate America. I hope she skates like she did her short program in Nashville, which was lovely. And then I hope she gets on with the rest of her life.

I was watching the football game earlier on CBS and saw that they have given up putting times for the Sunday evening shows. it was just "on tonight after... " I like that we are getting more helping ordinary people shows. I also like we are getting more ordinary time with Dee and Vi and Mel and Harry. Let's add Dante into the mix now too.

2/5, no *. I seem stuck in the throes of mediocrity.

One way they could get around the "sucked off when one gets closure" is that the core group has developed such a bond with each other that they won't leave until they all are ready to go. That includes Sam and Jay.

Me too! that's why I said Herbert Hoover with great confidence.
