Today is my dad's 79th birthday. He celebrated by sending a group text to all of us on his new phone. Yay technology!

While I thought last night's Arrow was slightly dis-joined (kinda wished the Roy storyline and the Moira one were separated) I loved how well everything was done. I mean Moira gets to be both loving, proud mama AND ruthless bitch protector of all before she died a horrible, but brave, death. I think I'm going to miss her more than I would have expected in season 1.

I have no comics knowledge, so I have no idea what baby-of-Ollie might mean, but it was awesome to see what a kid Stephen Amell can turn Ollie into during the flashback scenes. I'm not sure he was capable of that last season. Also, the costumer does a good job of making him look skinnier in the flashbacks that the well-muscled guy we all know he is.

As for the always wonderful Diggle and Felicity, I could not love them more. Diggle's slightly exasperated, "At least she's not as good at disappearing as you are." was gold. And Felicity's gag-face when Ollie injected himself with the pain meds was the best reaction ever (and I'm totally with her on it too.) I'm not sure I ship anyone at the moment, though, because all I want is for everyone to be awesome and work together forever and I worry that relationships between any of them might ruin that.
