OMG Souxi, almost exactly Ellery's words...from Taking Chances, chapter 36 Choices

Ellery closed his hand over Colson’s. “And I like you just fine just like you are. If college boys turned me on...you already heard this speech I think in one a my tirades ta Bill. Maybe its time ta pull you over the side a the road Colson, an give you my own talkin to. I am a loud, mouthy, opinionated bastard who drives like a demon and spends way too much time at work thinkin way too much about other people’s troubles. I got a bad back, a bad temper, and I can’t cook for shit, which is why my kitchen is so nice an clean.

 ;D

Oops - sorry, Fabienne.  Yeah, I guess those references might not be easily recognizable outside of the U.S. - "Ms." is a landmark feminist magazine first published in the 1970's.  "Maude" was a popular 1970's American sitcom about an outspoken feminist.  "The Feminine Mystique" is a book written in the 1960's that some think helped to ignite the contemporary women's movement. "N.O.W." is the "National Organization for Women."  Can't see Ellery doing any of these! LOL!

Have fun and be careful!

Hehehe, thanks for the explanation, but i think Ellery might finds this all a bit too much right now!  :laugh:

Aww, we all love Ellery, souxi.   And so does Wes - which is why he was so hard on him.  He wants him to be the best chief deputy the county has ever had. 

(Love your new Heath picture, btw  :'(  I don't think I've seen that one before).

Louise, I saw that Chapter 47 was up, so I'm going to go ahead and post the link:

http://louisev.livejournal.com/249265.html?view=2337457#t2337457


SPOILERS




Hard to see Ellery so subdued and "un-Ellery-like," but I hope it means he's really taken Wes's words to heart.  Maybe Colson can help him sort things out in his mind more clearly. 

Lovely to see how much Joe and the staff care about him.  And sweet, loyal, honest Jeremy - can't say enough about him.  I'm so glad he and Ellery are partners.  I feel for Wes, too.  That conversation had to hurt him as much as it did Ellery.  I really liked Wes's line about the good and bad in all of us.

Let's hope this means some fresh starts all around.  Great job, Louise.

Thanks,
Marie

Souxi, you make me laugh - I'm sure Ellery appreciates the support, and I'll bet he would agree!  :laugh:


SPOILERS- Chapter 48





Oh my - I was afraid he'd hit the Glenfiddle.  Colson is the best - so full of concern, but also able to keep things in perspective.  But he knows his man doesn't he? 

“Did you swear at her or somethin?” Colson was suspicious.

 :laugh: But I wanted to hug him when he told Ellery he didn't know what to make of him sometimes - yeah, a lot of people feel that way! LOL!

This whole thing may have been a wake-up call to Paula, too.  A very classy and smart move on her part to call Ellery.  There's been way too much personal b.s. interfering with their jobs - and not just on Ellery's part.  I'm curious to see Ellery's reaction once he sobers up!  On second thought, maybe her call did sober him up!

Thanks,
Marie
