Vampire Diaries 2.11

Ok, I give up. I’ll just…be an emo 13 year old over in a corner, madly shipping Caroline/Tyler and thinking about things like friends turned genetic enemies and cellars and chains. This reminds me that I haven’t checked out the latest Kaori Yuki manga yet. Even if I’m not sure I actually like him yet.

Anyway! I was pretty sure going in that this episode was kind of…going to be a “make it or break it” episode for me? Two of the three things I was worried about didn’t happen, but it looks like one is going to.

Uhm…how long is the hiatus, again?

(no subject)

I have a near uncontrollable need to wrap things.  Like, giftwrapping.  I keep looking at things and wondering if there could be a justification for wrapping them.  It's kind of an...unfulfilled hyperfocus thing.

Meanwhile, my excedrin migraine needs to kick in, as I developed a low level migraine around 12 and kept working on the phones for 4 1/2 more hours.  Though...I'm pretty sure that "it needs to kick in so I can watch Nikita and Covert Affairs" may not be the proper type of priority.  But there are spy ladies with guns waiting for me.  Also, I'm not sure, but I think that, despite having fewer POC in the main cast, Covert Affairs may have less racefail than Nikita?  But I suspect I'm being influenced by the fact that the last Covert Affairs episode that I watched was the one with Oded Fehr, and it didn't have the Fail that I was worried it would have once I figured out what the ep would be.  But despite Nikita herself, Nikita seems to use every racial stereotype, whereas Covert Affairs, so far, at least seems aware that they exist and should maybe be avoided.  Not fair to judge when you've seen 10 episodes of one show roughly as they aired and 4 of the other over a few days, though.
