This is the kind of clue known as a rebus.
Watches: this is the meaning of the word you're looking for. Grissom: GUS cross: The letter T road: AV, short for avenue Put the parts together in the order given and you get GUSTAV. Google "Gustav watches" and you learn that Gustav is a brand of watch. QEF

On-spec No. 3 earned the right to be just No. 3 today when she said something unusually perceptive. (Perceptive for anyone, not just a therapist.)

You have to be old enough to remember Gus Grissom and cosmopolitan enough to know about Gustav watches (I didn't). That might be a very narrow audience!
This is always a risk with cryptic crosswords. What they assume as "common knowledge" is often anything but.

Found out today we'll be losing our beloved Maestro Jaap van Zweden to the New York Philharmonic Orchestra. Fortunately he'll be doing double duty for another year and a half, so we won't have abrupt withdrawal. This is a HUGE move for him though. They are getting a great one.

Hey couch! My brother sent me a box of old photos and stuff that he culled from a bigger box that my Dad had stashed away at one point. He found it all when he was recently at our Mom's house helping her go through stuff. This picture is totally cracking me up as I was such a joyful teenager. This is me at around 13, spreading joy as usual at that age. I wish I'd believed I was beautiful then, I might have smiled more. God I felt ugly then. But look at that hair!!

Art I want to reply to your post about your realisation with your relationship with T. I want to convey I understand but my words are all muddled and I am overcome with the "feels" So I will give you a hug instead. You look a lot like my niece in that photo..

Thanks granite. I am learning to have some compassion for that long-ago me. I wish I had learned how to love myself back then. Oh well, better late than never I suppose.

I hate this!!! I made myself something to eat and choked on every bite and threw most of it away. I made myself a protein drink instead that went down better.
