While staying at Mommy’s last week, we started binge watching Homeland. We’ve only just started Blizzard Nemo and we already have about a foot of snow outside. So, after about 4 episodes so far today…
INT. MOMMY’S LIVING ROOM – NIGHT
Gail (Jill’s mom), Tom, and “Cutie” (Jill’s stepdad) watch TV. Jill carries a newly opened bottle of wine in from the kitchen. Cutie gets up to look out the front door. Twinkie the cat meows at Gail.
Gail
I just realized who Twinkie looks like!
Jill looks at her mom confused but intrigued.
Cutie
Yeah, he looks like a cat.
Gail
No! He looks like Claire Danes!
Everyone laughs.
Gail
I’m serious!
Cutie
You’re right! Why don’t you tweet it at her?
Gail
He does…
Cutie
…or *Meow* it at her!
Jill laughs and high fives cutie.
Gail
With his big eyes and long eyelashes?
Jill
Yeah, okay…
Gail
And that confused look on his face?
Well, Claire Danes isn’t on twitter but here you have it. You be the judge.





Good comparison! Hope you are all surviving Nemo out there. The city is great – plowed, sidewalks shoveled, biz is open. Only around 10 inches here. Love NYC!

I know, it seems like the city got nothing compared to out here. I like being snowed in once in a while though.
Just what number bottle of wine was that-that you brought out to the living room-whose consumption caused your mom to feel her male orange cat resembles Claire Danes? Does she still feel that way today? Is she even up yet?
Lol. She will never back down on this assertion. I think that must have been bottle #3.
HA! I think I peed myself a little while reading that. Thanks for the laughs, Jilly and Mommy!
Lol. I swear we were just locked inside for too long.
That is an interesting comparison though I think mildly passable. I’ve not seen Homeland yet but have heard great things about it so will do at some point.
I’ve always been a fan of Claire Danes though since Romeo + Juliet.
She is really fantastic in that show and it’s so addictive.
