Anna, I love you, but I have notes: A) We're terribly jealous here in the US that everyone in the UK got to start Downton last night and we didn't. B) If you and/or Bates end up in jail again at any time in this

This may be an unpopular opinion, and I may be suffering from Fashion Week Lunacy: But I kind of enjoy this. I mean, is it crazy? Kind of. Does it look like your laptop's innards stapled to one of Sally Bowles's rejected frocks? Sorta. Is it
