My son and daughter-in-law (in their 30s) and their son (in his first decade) love it. They check the (excellent) summaries on Television without Pity, they talk about the strategies, and they even got me to watch two seasons of the show (because they love it and because TVwoP is so good).

But argh! The show is many of my nightmares rolled into one. And now I'm packing for San Diego and having to unpack parts of the luggage to be sure I didn't forget to pack something that's already in the suitcase. What will I forget? My camera? My camcorder? My (oh, no!) cell phone?

Moannn.

Oh, well, at least I didn't get A Bad Elephant (TARjoke, sorry). And I'm not racing anyone else to get to San Diego. And by this time tomorrow ... Well, if I'm not in San Diego, there's still probably nothing I can do about it.

And you?
