Thirty-one posts for thirty-one days of the
Slice of Life Story Challenge.
It's Tuesday, which means it is "NCIS" night in our household. I wouldn't say that we are superfans, but there have been very few weeks that the long-running procedural isn't on our TV screen.
Tonight was a special night--the five hundredth episode of the original series. I jokingly suggested popcorn and my husband took it literally, handing me my own bowl and paper towel. We took up our usual stations, me in the armchair, his legs stretched out sideways on the couch.
The storyline was twisty, as usual. We chatted a bit during the commercials about the other shows the guest antagonist had been on. Forty minutes in, I wondered if the case at hand would be wrapped up by hour's end, or if we would be left hanging with a to-be-continued storyline.
Ten minutes later, we gasped simultaneously as the plot took a hard left, one we didn't see coming. Case closed...and an unexpected, permanent goodbye.

Per usual, I don't know what this show is. Sounds good though! Yes, I had to search it. I must start watching more TV.
