To everyone who stopped and helped me with my Writerly Way questions and to those I asked privately about the role of governesses. As always I appreciate it more than I can say.

And I'll appreciate anyone who stops by and says hello to Lillian. She's a tween writing her own LGBT stories and she's trying to help raise money for two LGBT causes, one for the homeless and the other for two of the authors (who are also with my publishing house among others). come help support a young author Thanks!

Other than that, this day has also sucked. I swear I'm trying not to bitch but it's hard when life it like this. It's snowed three times today. Go figure and that's actually not the sucky part.

No, just dad being a jerk again. Mom had to ask me to stop sending houses to him because all he does is scream at her for me wanting to buy a house. Oh he doesn't say a word to me. To me he's all Mr. Helpful but then he takes it out on her. Also she had to drive him to his 1 week appt where in he yelled at her for having to wait for the doctor and for 'hitting every pot hole and didn't she know he was hurting?' Okay, boo hoo. Someone else was there, same surgery, same amount of days out and he drove HIMSELF there (granted he probably shouldn't). I'm not saying it doesn't hurt but WTF is up with being a big baby. for fuck's sake I had bones cut out of my shoulder and muscles cut off the bone and screwed in elsewhere. I had to ride with mom 100 miles back from the hospital the next day and in less than a week ride 4 hours in the car back to Pittsburgh. DId I scream at her? No (well maybe I was so high I don't remember the trip). he needs reminded you don't piss off the people who are taking care of you.

And I'm in a vicious cycle. I can't get my sugar down. It's stressing me out. My sugar goes higher then. And it kicks off my fibromyalgia. I don't know why my sugar won't respond to anything but I'm getting very afraid. I got them to give me more insulin (took 2 phone calls to make myself clear). Got my MRI set up too.


Seriously. Okay I WANT to like NCSI New Orleans (I hate LA). But this isn't the way. I'm sorry flinging a guy over a car for putting a hand on you or slamming a soldier's head into a table because he got sleazy with you doesn't show me your cops are bad asses. it shows me people about to lose their jobs.

Quit trying to bring up Franks. Just QUIT.

There are only TWO field agents in New Orleans???

Does he look like a federal building kind of guy??? WTF. No. It's bad enough NCIS:LA has them in some unbelievable building but this one too? They are FEDERAL agents. They don't get to pick where their office is with some private lock-code. No. As a secondary office/think tank maybe but no, just no. DUMB.

Also this is NOT the Bishop/Gibbs show. Why oh why are you pushing them down our throats? McGee has been ignored this whole year just to allow her maximal screen time (except when he was doing everything wrong, those have been his two big things, losing his id and messing up with Delilah that no one cares about anyhow because he belongs with Abby).

Will I watch NCIS New Orleans. I'll try because I love N.O. and Scott Bakula but man it needs to do WAY better than this.


And Japan brings us this: too cute to eat

Yeah, I don't get with the Bishop hate, but she's just... well, not Ziva, that's for damned sure. And Ziva had to work HARD to get in with the crew, what, Bishop just waltzes in and she's The Best Ever? Seriously. :P

I'm not too distressed with New Orleans yet (But the, I have come to rather like LA -- it took a while to warm to it, but I sure like it now). I'll see how it goes. Scott Bakula's "southern" accent is gonna get me before the stories do, though, I'm afraid...

You know, I don't really like her but I think you hit on what really bugs me. She's a Mary Sue. Both Ziva and Kate had to work at it and they weren't shoved into our faces.

I couldn't get into LA. I tried. I LIKE Chris O'Donnell (why oh why are actors I like in shows I can't stomach. Looking at you David B.) You are right about that accent. Maybe I'll just look at the buildings and wish I could set a story there without it being trite since every story in the paranormal is set there....

I can't believe there are ANY agents in New Orleans. The Navy has just about no presence there anymore.

I'll just stare at Scott and the buildings.

I was wondering if Abby was even going to be in the episode. Her 30 seconds of show irritated me.

I am going to comment to the author! I swear.

*Sigh* to your dad.

well that's sort of my plan too

Abby hasn't been getting much air time ever since Bishop arrived.

thank you

I know, I know

I guess NCIS Pascagoula was too hard to sell at the network? Seattle would have been better. There are Navy facilities up at Puget Sound. The opposite side from Seattle, but still...

Guess Seattle wasn't 'sexy' enough. Don't know why, it's a pretty iconic city. Ah Hollywood

LOVED the TOO CUTE to eat... there was SQUEE and I demanded that the Boifurendo look. There is even a BUNNY!

AGREED on NCIS. I need to REWATCH it, but the HELL?? WHAT is with the Bishop? Skip her... it SHOULD be the ABBY/McGeek/Dinozzo show! AND Delilah...*THIS should be sweet and awesome. DiNozza was going to COOK!* HOW "funny" was it when doing "Disabled People in Media" that she mentioned "Logan Cale"? XD

I WOULD LOVE to like the NOLA version... but indeed, their HQ is better/more "safe house" like the Boat House in Los Angeles.

It's a good plan. Let's stick with it.

Well. More reason to dislike her; I like Abby.

You're welcome.

i've forgotten the plan.

same here

I missed the bunny. How fun.

Yeah Bishop does nothing for me. It's different that she's married but she doesn't seem married if that makes sense. Abby/McGeek/DiNozzo gets my vote.

I missed the Logan Cale shout out.

same here (even if it probably wouldn't be) but man...it's showing me nothing

Yeah, I'm afraid she is. Ziva worked for well over a year to get the guys to even LIKE her, and Bishop waltzes in and everyone loves her? COME ON.

I certainly didn't like it at first, but within the last year or so I just started watching it and the next thing I know... I do like it. But then, I LIKE character-driven drama, whereas you don't seem to.... :)

yep, that exactly. It makes me resent Bishop more than I should


It depends on the characters but yes I tend to be more plot driven
