We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Trust my rage

re: Grey's Anatomy my thoughts were exactly what Trudy said regarding the Burke/Yang kiss. Personally, I think the resident (forgot her name) will not be happy to find out about Dr. Burke kissing anyone but her, maybe .

The resident is Dr. Bailey -- that was my thought too. If she felt like she had an opportunity for leverage with the discovery of Shepard/Grey, she is just going to be ANGRY when/if she discovers the Burke/Yang. But I'll be she'll use it as leverage too.

Grey's Anatomy

My only thought on Burke/Yang was that it was extremely hot. Sandra Oh is brilliant at faces. She doesn't overplay it, but she is so expressive.

Random question. If you were going to spend 3 weeks looking at magical realism, what books would you teach together. Pick 3. And, ftr, it can't be all Garcia Marquez.

Something by Salman Rushdie?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Like Water for Chocolate?

Heh. ChiKat, I almost suggested that one. Except, would that be appropriate for Kat's students? I remember it's pretty racy, but then, maybe I only think that because I read it when I was probably around the age of Kat's students.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Helprin's Winter's Tale?

Yeah, there's that. I don't know what age she teaches. It is a bit racy (and so so good!).

Some Isabel Allende? Or Kafka's Metamorphosis? Beloved?
