It really is exhausting. Last week my brother and I took him in for a procedure and we were in Boston ALL DAY. We walked for miles and did errands and had lunch and still had to wait around for an hour when we went to pick him up. I didn't get home till 8 PM. That, my friends, is past my bed time and I was distinctly cranky. (I don't actually go to sleep at that hour but I like to sit up in bed and watch TV in my pillow nest.)

Expand  

I know how you feel I did all that for my husband too and it is exhausting.  Everything is going to be fine.

Right? I don't know about you, but one of the things that frosts my ass the most is that I'll get a referral someplace with no regard for my convenience. I don't drive so I need to be able to get places by public transport. No, I am NOT going to Marblehead or Peabody. Find me someone in Salem, please. Sheesh. 

Expand  

I feel the same way and I drive.  Have a perfectly good hospital network here in Pasadena and my doctor was sending me all over LA.  I was like, “no sir, I only know this set of freeways and I don’t want to get on any of them.”

I see that TLC is making sure that everyone stays liquored up.

[magemaud]

No Emily, unless you’re suddenly fluent in Spanish, it’s pointless to eavesdrop on Ashley screaming at Manuel. 
 

Who is that baby voiced blonde who’s going to be on Before? I’m tired of her already 

[sainte-chapelle]

From what I saw Becky with the bad hair already ate out of the surgery

I like Kobe a lot…he needs a spin off

[tvrox]

Ashley, it's good that Manuel wants to work. 

[Gobi]

Can't Ashley just whip up a magic spell to prepare the documents?

Dummy Whisperer

[Shelbie]

Why are these people so interested in Gino and Jasmine’s lack of sex. I’m so bored with this idiotic subject that I could scream.

[Zombness]

Sophie says she is not fluent in Spanish, that's a lie my friends, she speaks Spanish very well.  So Ashley and Manuel, Sophie was listening to all you were saying in Spanish.

[tvrox]

This is the LAST group that should be teaching about "healthy sex." 

[magemaud]

Not any kind of expert, but Sophie’s Spanish accent sounds better than Ashley’s to me 

[Gobi]

"You're being Angela." Thems fightin' words!

[sainte-chapelle]

Ok Ashley is saying she only cares about knowing the kids so she can cross examine them about lies….she is fucking awful

You are absolutely right, Sophie knows more Spanish and speaks it better than Ashley.

I think he and Emily could be a very wholesome and amusing show. But they'd have to stay away from Sharp. Matt Sharp can't stand human decency.

I wonder what she'd have to dip a candle in for navigating bureaucracy? Red tape?

Wouldn't you drink if you were stuck with these people in one house?? 

[judylo]

This is nothing but screaming and cacophony! And again, I must express my distaste for having to read subtitles because Manuel won’t learn English and Ashley indulges him.

Speaking of subtitles … anyone see Monsieur Spade, with Clive Owen as Sam Spade in France? Originally AMC, now on Netflix.

I know she lived in Mexico. And yeah, I think she's half black. But I find her so insufferable and dull any information about her leaves my brain at once.

I don't remember, but people that are raised in Europe usually speak more than one language and her Spanish accent is from Spain, not from Latin America.

I have it on my list, is it good? Right now I watching "The Almighty Johnsons" again. I've seen it before, but not for several years now. I'm enjoying it just as much as I did before. Great show, so well done.

Jasmine is caterwauling again. I can't.

[sainte-chapelle]

I just watched “ Behind her Eyes” I guessed the shocking twist in Episode 4 and I found the show to be disappointing

She's half black. But I think she's spent some time in Mexico.

It’s certainly interesting, especially in the beginning, but gets horribly convoluted and incomprehensible. And the last episode is really terrible. Scenery and Clive Owen gorgeous.

[SunnyBeBe]

Jasmine’s level of instability is concerning.  Very bizarre.

[Gobi]

If this was fiction, I would be expecting someone to be tossed off the top of that staircase.

[Pepper Mostly]

People, we are going to need more anecdotes! Keep 'em coming! 

I went to the thrift shop on Friday and found my son a pair of brand new, tags still on, Tommy Hilfiger dress pants for about $12. Find of the day. 

[Zombness]

Ed shut up, you are not expert on these themes and you were just stirring the pot.

[tvrox]

Rob is not handsome, sorry Sophie. 

[SunnyBeBe]

It’s as if she gets a charge from the volatility.

Good to know. "Death in Paradise" is a new favorite binge around here, ridiculously complicated murders but beautiful scenery and well acted. Houseguest and I will turn it on and barely pay attention to it, because all you really need to watch is the last ten minutes, when the detective unravels the nefarious and wildly confusing crime. But there are funny bits and the supporting cast is very good. 

[magemaud]

From an old article 

“Sophie, a mixed-race individual, opened up about her tough experiences being bullied as the only person of color in her Spanish school, but believes these experiences shaped her into the person she is today.”

Her father is Black, from Jamaica and her mother is White from the UK. Claire raised Sophie in Spain but Sophie moved back to England  when she was 16.

One of these days either I will get to Toronto (Toronto, right?) or you will come to Salem and this will come to pass.
