Jamie should not be in charge of naming their children. A sneeze indeed!
Stanley Weber and his French are just so hot!
She knows alcohol is bad for the baby, right?
What the hell did Comte Hottie do?!
Well, Jamie took that better than I thought he would. He does make a good point. He should get to kill Black Jack, not some cows.
Aw, poor Murtagh!
Ooh, the apothecary suspects something is not right with Claire. Is he a time-traveler, too?
Did they know about dinosaurs then?
A bit of foreshadowing here. She might not find it so easy to take her own advice later.
Oh. My. God. Stop talking, Jamie, while you still have all your parts!
Jamie's speech is both heartbreaking and beautiful at the same time. He's not just a pretty face.
Finally some Black Jack-free sex. Also, Jamie's a boob man.
No full-frontal Jamie here.
What the heck? They have a front door, Charlie!
Who needs a presentation at Court? Not Claire.
Um...this story is starting to sound familiar.
Another Castle/Beckett moment.
Sam Heughan looks so much better with his hair loose.
Her assistant, for lack of a better term is a young boy. Haha!
Fergus has a career in psychology ahead of him. He gets women.
What was that grease?
The duke knows the bee's nest he stirs up.
Poor Mary, that guy will crush her in bed!
Ha, Charlie won't know what hit him.
Dukey doesn't like the Jamie-Charlie bromance at all.
Poor Mary!! What was that "La Dame Blanche" business?
Keep it together Charlie. Don't be weird.
The Comte is not happy to see Claire. He definitely planned the attack.
If Mary and Alex are in love, how does she end up marrying the a-hole?
The duke is a fun guest. And Charlie, he's gay. Duh!
Those fat guys can throw a punch. And Sandringham left the battlefield again! Haha!
Murtagh's like, "Now this is a party!"
Fergus's first dinner party is a success.

Review of Outlander Season 2 Episode 3
Jamie's adjusting well to having servants!
How pregnant is Claire at this point?
She knows about Sawny, Jamie. She gave him back to you, remember?
Crap. Keep it together, Claire. Freak out at home. Poor Mary! Forget about Culloden, stop this! (Okay, not really. But still!)
Well, that answers the question of when Murtagh gets laid. Also, doesn't the maid look like Hailee Steinfeld?
Be nice to Murtagh, Claire. Remember the cave?
I want that library.
Stanley Weber is so hot.
Don't be so sure about that, Claire. Jamie's got a brain.
What the heck is a "urinoscopist?!
The abbess is testing her by making her empty chamber pots. I love it.
Jamie is all "Get off me, Charlie!" This guy is very touchy-feely.
Aw, Jamie is getting practice for when his kid is a teenager. What did we do before cell phones?
Ha! She grossed the hell outta poor Murtagh!
Claire would not make a good trophy wife.
Burn.
That's creepy!
A life of chess and bordellos hasn't hurt Jamie's fitness level, that's for sure.
Well, he did manage to fight a war without you, Claire. He's not an idiot.
Their marriage is...not so good.
Interesting approach. I didn't know dogs could sense infection.
They just did the Castle/Beckett mind-meld thing. So cute!
Tell him, tell him...
Aaarggghhh. This is gonna come back to bite her.

What Happened to Us?
I might lose some followers because of this post. That is a risk I am willing to take.
What happened to America? We were once a proud and forceful nation. Now, we are all scared of our shadows. And of offending our neighbors.
What is the deal with these transgender bathrooms? You're telling me I might have to share a bathroom with a she-male? And if I had a daughter, she might be getting an early sex education? Um, no thank you. I remember when my brother was little. We always felt bad bringing him into the ladies' room. What would happen now? And what about pedophiles? They can just claim to be transgender! No one can say anything.
A lot of events have been canceled because of recent legislation. Cirque de Soleil canceled events in North Carolina. Honestly, I happily boycotted their show. I'd rather go to the bathroom in a safe environment. New York canceled a Mississippi festival because of a law passed there stating marriage is between a man and a woman. First of all, what do New Yorkers have to do with Mississippi? Secondly, most of the country believes marriage should be between a man and a woman, people.
Another issue I have is with the news that Harriet Tubman will eventually replace President Jackson the $20 bill. Why disrupt the status quo? If MLK didn't mind, should we? He was the president, no offense to Harriet Tubman.
Cracker Jacks are now apparently going to have no prizes at all. They are paper now, anyway. I remember getting actual prizes in the boxes, and I'm not even that old. Why are we so afraid of kids choking? If parents are letting their kids have that much sugar, we have bigger problems. I wasn't even allowed to have gum until third grade.
Thanks for listening!

The Head Doesn't Match the Body!
Okay, what is it with the actors of today? What happened to guys like Paul Newman and Gregory Peck? They had handsome faces, and when they took their shirts off, look out ladies! Hot face, hot body.
Now it seems like actors need only have a nice face to be on TV. The actor who plays Lucifer? Very good-looking, and that accent? Yum. And then he went shirtless. Eww. What ever happened to muscles?
Tom Mison looks good in Ichabod's full uniform; even when he's just wearing the brown coat. But at home, with Abbie, in his shirtsleeves? Why is his waist smaller than mine?! I feel like I could defeat him, never mind monsters from Hell.

Nathan Fillion is hilarious as Castle, but when did he get so doughy? His face blew up between Season 2 and Season 3, He must have really enjoyed that craft services table.
Basically, what I'm saying is, why is there a double standard? Why should women feel the need to diet and get plastic surgery so they look good on TV, when male actors can't even manage to get to the gym? Do men just care less about their bodies? Probably. But they should. At least a little.
CafePress Review
I've always been hesitant to order things online. I prefer going to a store and seeing what I'm getting. Of course, sometimes it's easier (and cheaper) to buy online. Who wants to go out in the snow to do Christmas shopping if you don't have to?
But I decided to take a chance on CafePress. They have so many products of practically any design you can think of. I was looking for something to show my love for "One Tree Hill", and Amazon just had shirts, which, let's face it, I won't wear. CafePress had a cute "Naley" keychain. They even have deals, depending on the day. So I ordered it, praying that 1) I would actually receive it and 2) it would actually look like the picture.
You can pay using an existing Amazon account. You get emails from Amazon and CafePress confirming your order. You don't always get a tracking number, same as Amazon. But they do give you a general date of arrival, which was helpful. In fact, I got my product early!
It was exactly what I wanted, and packaged perfectly. Thanks, CafePress! I've already ordered from you again.

Methinks I Love My THINX!
THINX underwear are a blessing for us women that don't want to wear tampons or pads during that time of the month. Who needs the chemicals? Plus, bulk is not feminine.
The underwear come in different styles and sizes. You can decide how many you need based on your cycle. The inside is cotton, with five different layers treated with anti-microbial silver.
You can keep one pair on for hours, no joke. It's sounds gross, but you don't feel damp at all.
They are pricey. Hiphuggers, for your heavy days, are $34.00 each. Then again, how much do you spend on pads and tampons, not to mention ruined underwear?
To wash them, you should rinse them first, then cold wash. Technically, you're supposed to let them air-dry, but if you forget, it's not a big deal if they run through the dryer.
For every pair of THINX, bought, the company sends money to help AFRIpads give feminine hygiene products to women and girls in Uganda.

Why Can I Never Remember Stuff?
If you're anything like me, you have the short-term memory of a gnat. Some people keep a To-Do list in the kitchen. I remember things in the bathroom.
Literally. I forget them as soon as I get to my room. It's like the bathroom is a vortex of memory. I've lost story ideas that I knew were really good. I remember to make phone calls days after I meant to.
This has lasted for years. I was going crazy, and just figured I was doomed to live in forgetfulness. It's not like you can bring a notepad into the shower with you.
Then I discovered Aqua Notes Waterproof Notepad http://www.amazon.com/Aqua-Notes-Waterproof-NotepadMountable/dp/B003W09LTQie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage.
Oh. My. God. This thing is a lifesaver! It is a blank notepad with suction cups attached. I had a bit of trouble making it stick to the tile wall, but once you find the right section, it stays on unless you forcibly yank it off. It also comes with a pencil that you can stick on as well.
It is definitely waterproof, as advertised. You can write on it in the steam. Wet hands? Not a problem. I am definitely satisfied. Any aspiring writer needs one, for those times when an idea hits you at an, ahem, inopportune moment.
