Before the show starts: There will be a Veronica Mars recap. I'm really tired, though, so I don't know when. Maybe later tonight, maybe tomorrow, but keep an eye out (and don't wait up for me). I'm taping The Amazing Race for later because the ep synopsis was like, "All asshattery, all the time!," and I'm not sure I have the strength for that right now.

P.S. I asked. She was totally talking about The Merchant of Venice.

Merchant of Venice

Which, like, totally takes place in England.

I had conversations like that with my mom, for years. At the opera. Where she's never sure what language it's in, what even the titles of the works mean in English, or if she's seen it before and liked/disliked it.

And suddenly, a mom's favorite word is "guy".

Mom: "It's the one by the guy you like."

Me: "Verdi?"

Mom: "No, the Nazi guy?"

Me: "Richard Strauss?"

Mom: "No, it's German."

Me: "Strauss was German."

Mom: "No, this guy's famous. Richard Burton played him."

Me: "Oh. Wagner."

So.Much.Work.

It's moments like that when I learned ... I was an adult! My mommy didn't know everything.

Hey, now. Maybe you should settle down and rest up for a bit. Just because your adoring blogging public is waiting expectantly for your next recap doesn't mean you should feel obliged to put up with us.

Take care of yourself. ;)

Glad to know my mom is not the only one who asks those kind of questions.

Oh, not Price And Prejudice then. Wait, they're making a Merchant Of Venice? Really? Hmm...
