Memo to the Criminal Minds writing staff

Dear Writers:

I kind of love Criminal Minds. Derek Morgan is adorbs, Dr. Reed annoyingly/lovably nerdy, and Penelope Garcia is funny, brilliant, and nobody comments on the fact that she's not a size two. Love. Her.

However: could we please STOP blaming mothers for the actions of serial killers? Because, really, LOTS of kids are abused - by fathers AND mothers, alas - and the vast, overwhelming majority of them do NOT become serial killers. So, really, lay off the Mean Mommy Made Him a Bad Man story line, please.

Thank you.

it shouldn't bother me

...but it kinda does. The poet, the ex who broke my heart a million times over, is married now.

mid-life crisis imminent

Actually, I think I had it on Saturday morning, and it passed by Saturday afternoon, as soon as I realized why I was asking existential questions about my reason for existing at all, much less being stuck in dumbfuckistan.

Now I'm shopping for a Miata.
