1. Regarding the last CSI episode:
I know everyone's been blaming the break-up on Grissom, and I wondered if I was missing something, but having read the pertinent parts of Annie's recap (a word which here means "the transcription of Sara's video, some Grissom/LH interaction, and the ending"), um...yeah, I'm going to stick with heaping all the blame on Sara. The leaving, it bugs. Also the boat. I have an irrational hatred of spending excess time on boats, which is matched only by my dislike of CHANGE.
I could handle San Francisco; that was more of a return-to-roots. Leaving the continent, that's UNACCEPTABLE AMOUNTS OF CHANGE. I don't even want Grissom to go after her at this point, even though I think - if only to spite me - he will. I hate the idea of them reconciling out in the middle of the sea somewhere. Why can't they subscribe to the fan-inspired-but-still-incredibly-logica
I also think this is an episode I'm never going to watch, because now that I know what happens I have no need to subject myself to Lady Heather's crap. And since I know that much, it makes me wonder why I should bother checking out the 2 episodes I missed before this one; I see no need to subject myself to finding out what the new CSI girl is like, either.
The end result is that I think I might just go ahead and drop this show permanently. Forget trying to make it Christmas unspoiled and then catching up, maybe I'll just follow recaps and/or stop actively caring. And here I thought this would be the one show I'd never leave, no matter what...
--------------------------
2. Pretty sure that I refuse to write anything else about The Office this week. It's a shame, because I just have this massive Notepad document full of glee and hilarity prior to the 19-minute mark, but because of the ending I refuse to acknowledge anything worth commending about the episode as a whole. The more the internet praises it as being one of the best episodes ever, the harder I dig in my stubbon heels.
3. Going to go improve my mood by finishing off that Lost ficlet. Except that now I'm getting all distracted by watching the episode it's a post-ep for (4.02, Confirmed Dead). And when I went to go check the post where I originally launched this idea, to see if there were any lines I could borrow, I just ended up getting further distracted by how pleased I am with my review of that episode. The meta is excellent. In a way that's impossible to work into the fic, of course. Sigh.No! Will not write a third (to be added to the beginning) missing scene to incorporate it! Noooo, I'm sick of this fic writing itself backwards...

Re: blaming Grissom, it seems like most of the internet is mad at him for being so stubbornly inactive that it's unfair to expect Sara to put up with it. Which I get, theoretically, but there seems less blame directed back at Sara, and I like being contrary.
