You know what gets me? This is what gets me. Twenty years I’ve been fighting demons. Maggie Walsh and her nancy ninja boys come in; six months later, demons are pissing themselves with fear.

As I’m writing this, it’s Wednesday evening and I’m watching Law and Order:SVU for the 8millionth time. My mother, who is not as much of a fan as I am, wants to know where the pretty lady’s partner (Stabler) is, and says she doesn’t like any of the new faces much.
