Love isn't brains, children, it's blood, blood screaming inside you to work its will.

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.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

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?

I can't even.

Matt Ruff, Fool on the Hill?

ETA (more modern fairy tale than magic realism, although ... Also, I was wracking my brain for inappropriateness, and I don't think there is any, but I watch Deadwood for fun, so I'm not sure I'm a good judge.)
