It was just as bad as he described it.
I need to get a box of latex gloves to do my job.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
What on earth are these people doing at work?!?!!
I overslept 45 minutes this morning, and will still be on time for work. Thank god for dresses.

I woke up this morning at 4:30, and couldn't fall back asleep.

That's not at all right.
And oops, not so much with the on time if I don't leave right now.

And a mask! Don't breathe in those spores!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My cable went out at 9 yesterday. Somehow it's worse when it's two shows you were trying to record.
Watched House. I think my curiosity is sated. I just can't dig it anymore. I was mostly irritated. Why did they let the lawsuit slide? I mean, why this time and not the others? I'm assuming that if they hadn't amputated the hand, he'd have died, and it was clear he was lying about his history. But, OTOH, this way the kid gets to go to school. Which, really isn't what malpractice insurance is about. Plus, the final speech by House was OOC. And more closing montage.

Is Veronica Mars the show with a kid named Lucas, who has issues with his father? I saw a bit of something like that, and the girl in the following scene kind of looked like the girl in the ads (blonde curls, perky but not to the point of inducing murder).
Interesting premise, but teen-aged angst doesn't thrill me anymore. Not that it ever did. I watched Buffy for Giles and Spike and I admit it.

ita, I assumed (and this is a big assumption) that Cuddy had advised them to sue, so assuage her guilt. But, ITA about the closing speech. It was very out of character, esp. with someone else in the room to witness it.

I saw Veronica Mars for the first time last night. It's kind of appealing to my inner Nancy Drew fangirl--and boy, howdy, that's a deep mental dredging operation there--25 years or so. It looks engagingly plotty and seems to have some worthwhile dialog. I may give it another shot, depending on what Smonster and Amyth want to watch on Wednesdays.

I figured something like that too, and in fact, when House turned around, I thought that was what he was going to say. I'd have liked it better that way, because then it wouldn't have seemed so universally endorsed. I mean, shouldn't most of his patients sue? For emotional distress if nothing else?
