you don't reallly want to mess with me tonight!
That's what I'm saying.
OK. To bed.
No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Hm. My uncle was a "late baby" for my grandparents, and I just did the math to figure out she was 39 when she had him. I'd always assumed she was older.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I finally got to watch the GA season finale, so I went back and read the whitefont.
Kat, I agree with you about Burke's vows, but even as he was saying them, I knew he was going to break it off. Poor Cristina. I definitely read that as anguish.
Also, I agree that Bailey not getting chief resident made no sense. Have we ever seen the Chief and Calli interact for more than a couple of minutes here and there?
Also very over George.
I know it's wrong, but I love that Meredith's sister was the one flirting with Derek and that it seems like she'll be around next year.
On a different note, Kat, why do you think I'd like the Palm?
How sad is it that I've been back for less than 24 hours, and I am already itching to go away somewhere again?

So, when do we build Sang Sacre in Second Life?
Oooh.
I am brainwormed by the Venture Bros. also when it comes to "cosplay."
I have the brainworms.
My day's good news: productive writing day.
My day's bad news: we're well beyond out of money and I haven't rustled up a temp assignment yet.
Stupid capitalism.

On GA, I've been confused for a while now about Calli's status. She seems more like an attending than a resident; she;s the only ortho surgeon we see, she never has interns trailing her unless they're Bailey's interns, it seems like the first mention of her being a resident is in the episode before last when she threw her hat into the ring. Left field.

I thought that she was an attending. And she's older than George. isn't she?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Lee, on GA, I agree that not making Bailey chief resident made no sense. Wasn't the chief just wishing a few weeks ago that she could be ready to be Chief of Staff, and now she isn't even chief resident.

sj, yes. It was very much lacking in sense.
-t and Vortex-- I was confused about that too. It kind of felt like that because they had never come out and said what Calli's job title was, they thought they could make it whatever they wanted in order to set up story lines for next year, even though what they wanted made no sense because of the surrounding storylines. .
Man, GA has some catch up work to do next year, at least from where I sit.

Exactly, Lee. You get to the heart of the matter.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Several women I work with have had their first babies at 35 or older. The kids are now teenagers, and everyone seems to be doing ok (even the woman who had a couple miscarriages at 35 or older, then had 2 babies).
To the extent there are problems, it's more along the lines of someone who's high-strung juggling the responsibilities of being a full-time professional plus parenting teenagers plus caring for aging parents with very serious health problems.
