Also, Tivo cut off the last few seconds for me too. I could see the ending in Lorelei's face though, now that I know what it is.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Okay, that one boy doctor with long hair is HOT. Who is he? Where do I know him from?
He played the younger sister's jerk boyfriend in Ten Things I Hate About You.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Keegan!
Rio, that's a complicated looking exercise. I'll have to work on it.

I was fixated on the space between, and even missed that.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Tonight was only the 2nd time I've ever seen House. Was this an exceptional episode, or is it usually this good?
Of the 3 or 4 I've seen, this is definitely the best, although the other 2 or 3 (I memfault exactly how many) were all very early in its run.
Timelies. And gronk. The insomnia fairy has been playing hit and run with me this week: a couple hours sleep, then a couple hours awake, then an hour or so asleep, and then awake again. Meh.
Does anyone know if it's possible to be asleep and dreaming, yet still physically aware that one is lying in bed? Or am I just vividly hallucinating from the sleep dep?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yes. Strong painkillers can do that for me. Sometimes this happens to me even without the drugs. Lack of sleep can result in dream weirdness.

That would be good, because that means I got a little more sleep than I thought.
I wonder if that kind of sleep does any good, though. Granted, I've been drag-ass on 6+ hours sleep that day after sometimes, where getting only 2 or 3 a lot of times doesn't seem to slow me down the next day at all.

Yeah, I don't think that is a deep sleep, which is what you really need.

I loved that Lorelai proposed - that was very satisfying. I think that Rory is WEAK. A quitter.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
the British MP who ripped the US Senate a new one
I saw some of that last night on the news. (And was surprised it hadn't been a topic of Natter.) Who better to whip out the bitter righteousness than a Scot? He was relishing each and every R he rolled.
Watched some of House. But was clicking around and so spent probably 60% of the episode very confused.
Could not get up this morning. Feel like tenderized meat.
