'Bring On The Night'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
discovered that my bank is boycotting the entire state of Illinois because they've had so many card fraud incidents there
What?? How can they do that?? Holy crap. Like, if you lived in Illinois, what would you do? Or is this a local bank, that just assumes no one ever travels to Chicago? Good grief.
Local credit union, but I suspect it's probably actually their credit card processer behind it - but even though they have few or no customers living there, I'm sure they're hearing plenty from people who travel there, as the looniversity on the whole is a ridiculously well-traveled joint.
Mostly, I'm just kind of stunned that it's, you know, the amurrican midwest. In a way that I wouldn't have been if they'd said, "hey, y'all, we've been getting a lot of card fraud in Kazakhstan", right?
(I actually got card-frauded by Illinois about a month back, but totally put it behind me after it was all dealt with, which said local credit union were total customer-service saints about. Now I find out I apparently wasn't the only one!)

Totally--fewer people are going to be going to or ordering anything from [insert random country here], and if they are, they can call the bank and SAY "Hi, I'll be in Mauritania for the next two weeks" But...Illinois?
Weird.
Caprica's final episodes are running on Tuesday. And Detroit 187 (at least I think it's new) - V is back on Tuesday too.
Sumi, thanks for mentioning this! I had forgotten to make sure my DVR was going to record them, and it wasn't because for some reason it doesn't think they are new episodes.
I've got two more inches to knit on a hat for my cousin's 3.5 year old then I can start on one for my other cousin's 5 month old. Baby hats, so fast, so fun.
Actually got mac to take some folded clothes to his room and to strip the sheets on the other bed in his room.
I am going to take a grocery run during halftime and cross my fingers that mac does his reading log as I have said.
Does he go back to school tomorrow, msbelle?
I've had my ibuprofen. And my beer. And my quesadilla. My head still hurts. I think I'll go wake Noah.
Thanks, y'all. Justified, White Collar, and Southland set to go.
It's KILLING me that NBC still hasn't announced when FNL premieres season 5...
