Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My GA problem: I'm so fucking over Meredith. Why does Finn even want to deal with her bullshit? He could clearly do better. Also, I can't belive a guy like McSteamy would actually go for a woman like Callie, even for a one-night-stand, unless he's less shallow than the overly-goodlooking plastic surgeon steretype would imply.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

GA: I don't think Izzy would understand. After her shitfits last season about what friends owe her, I never got the impression she learnt. Got over them still talking to Karev, but not learnt better. She's very demanding. And, if I had a friend who was just a few days out from being curled up with her fiance's corpse, I'd really like an SO who'd let me help them out. In fact, it'd be something I'd look for. I don't like her "You talk to them!" hissy fits. Uh, people talk to people. About different things, even. Maybe if she had any friends, she'd get that.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

GA: Yeah, I don't think Izzy would have understood. She kept talking to Mer after the whole George thing last year, even after being shirty that they were helping Alex with his boards. So yeah, understanding not her strong point.

I don't see McSteamy NOT being the pompus, shallow ass that he has shown himself to be. But I also think that Callie is confident in herself to know that and know that it's a fuck buddy thing that she's probably getting herself into, and even enjoy it for what it is. I do, however, think that Addison is gonna flip her shit when she finds out and her confidence and self-assuredness is going to go even further down the toilet.

(And also? I LOVED the scene between her and Bailey. My love for Bailey continues to grow and grow each week and I want to be her when I grow up. Must make it a point to keep lurking around the Burbank Vons to catch a glimpse of her and her son.)

Ummmm....what else? I don't know. I was talking to my sister last night about the show as a whole, and I can't remember any BAD episodes. Any "Well, that was stupid" episodes. Is my selective memory showing again?

Art Crawl!!!

GA: I wish that Meredeth had decided that she didn't want either of them rather than "realizing" that Derek is the one just in time for Derek to "sacrifice" his love and dump her. While she is still in RECOVERY. WTF??? And I also agree that Callie should have been a little more understanding and hey -- she sat shiva (sp? Is it really the same as Shiva? Huh.) for Denny -- she could have gone with George and made tea while they listened to that message. I loved Bailey and Addison. I hated McSteamy and Bailey. I think that Cristina is missing the point. I can't believe that Preston can't get a word in edgewise with either Derek - OR Cristina. Poor Burke. I forsee Disaster.

GA! OH OH OH!! t bounce

Ok, when Preston said, "blah blah blah You want Preston Burke." I would have loved it, and I think it would have been good character development for Christina to have shot back, "You are a good and kind person. You are a person that cleans up behind yourself. you are a person that cooks well. And I am an unbelievable slob. A slovenly, angry intern. You are Preston Burke. And you, you are the most competitive, most guarded, most challenging person I have ever met. And I love you." I WOULD HAVE DIED.

That is so exactly what he needed to hear and I would have loved it if she had said that.
