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?

I found House's last speech kind of OOC, too. He's not totally unable to be supportive, but it's usually one or two "you don't suck" lines buried beneath a huge pile of sardonic commentary.

I got up at seven today. Even though I am not going to work. Now i'm going to catch up all the craxy amounts of tv I've got saved. Already watched Invasion, which recoreded instead of L&O for some reason, plus a couple of Futuramas. Also have two Losts, an SG-Aquarium, at least one BSG, House, not sure what else. Also I may clean the bathroom. Should be a good day.

Gronk. I am trying to take solace in the fact that at least I have the day off tomorrow, so when I can't fall asleep until 2am yet again, at least I'll be able to sleep in.

In happier news, I have blueberry pancakes.

Okay, the keyboard with fungi is a world of eww. My personal reaction would be to tell said user to throw it in the trash and I'll bring him a new one.

I'm curious how shrift's user managed to turn his keyboard into black cornflakes, though.

I just took a call from a user who says that he has dropped so much food into his keyboard that fungus is growing on it.

I thought it was bad that my users sometimes flat out lie to me. Sometimes when I'm sitting next to them. I think superfund keyboard beats that.

Woke up late. I think sludge moved into my head overnight. On the blue sudafed. Head hurts. Popped a circuit breaker with my hairdrier. That's a first.

(Stopped in College Station, Dana -- the Woodland hotel in my chain was sold out. So was everything else within 50 miles in that chain.

Really? Bizarre...

But fridge! Fridge is good.

shrift, has it really only been two years. It seems so much longer.
