I had big plans to catch up on TAR last night only to be thwarted by the football delay! I'll have to find time to watch it online.
We gotta go to the crappy town where I'm the hero!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I just watched last weeks Just Desserts and there was so much drama I had to fast forward through large chunks of it.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Anyone else watching ANTM? Last week was the makeover with a - SURPRISE! - rejection right afterwards. And the girl who cried all through her haircut and didn't carry off her new look well enough was sent home.
Then they had the girls being "fallen angels" - hanging from a bar in a harness with black costumes and wings ... Tyra's cracked up, right? Not as bad as when she had the girls being "hapa" - weird mash-ups of ethnicities (TWOP referred to it as having the girls in blackface), but she's OTT.

Because books.
We actually watched the whole Chopped Champions season, and the finale was tonight. I cried! It was actually really good, if slightly manipulative of the tears at the end. I was so surprised! It's always been one of those shows we just watch out of habit more than real interest.

Punishingly Intricate
And the girl who cried all through her haircut and didn't carry off her new look well enough was sent home.
And then the girl whose eyebrows she had DYED WHITE to go with her dark brown hair! CRAZY!!!!

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
And then the girl whose eyebrows she had DYED WHITE to go with her dark brown hair!
Okay, srsly, why did they do that to that girl? The dark hair was okay, but bleaching her brows made her look weird.

PR tonight has absolutely positively wrecked me.
Just wrecked me.

Because books.
Yeah, that was a good one. It confused me, though, because the ads I saw this week were really for next week, with the cheating accusations, etc.
Mondo's print was fantastic. And I loved Andy's, too, although not the garment.
I love Valerie, but despite being a sweetheart, she really needed to go. She's been going downhill since the start, and everything she's made recently seems like home ec/craft project stuff .

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I'm not surprised at who won or who left but I found myself in tears at the end.
And Gretchen still always finds a way to make it all about her. That is her true talent.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yeah. Wow.
I liked Valerie's print while she was creating it, but you could barely see it in the finished dress. it was the fit on the top that killed it for me. I didn't catch that it was so similar to her nakin dress until they put up the side by side pictures.
