So last night as I was falling asleep I ended up thinking of a lovely bit of Chidi/Eleanor fic based on this episode and now have forgotten it. But it was a nice way to fall asleep instead of stressing about things.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I am in Canada and downloaded that to watch this morning, and it was so entirely worth it.
Laugh moment: When Chidi asks if he's been annoying, and everyone equivocates, and then you hear Jason say YES.

Excuse me, I'll just be bawling until the next episode airs.

OK, listening to the podcast got me a little more grounded.
Oof, that was good.

That was great. Oh, Chidi.
I was noting that in the last few episodes (before he went comatose) he was far more decisive than in the past. Chidi has progressed, yo.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
-t I agree with you on the Tequila (My favorite line in Lizzo's 'Good as Hell' is "got a bottle of tequila I've been saving for you") and the bawling. (I had to go have a cry and thinking about it now I'm about to start up again.)

"50 gallons of man in a 10 gallon hat" is such a perfect description, I died a little.
I caught the pilot of Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist, which is high concept as network TV comedies go. To wit: the main character is a coder in a tech company, and *something* happens to her brain when an earthquake strikes while she's getting a brain MRI. As a result, she can now hear other people's thoughts and emotions in the form of a... SONG! (I KNOW). The pilot is a bit forced in bits but I still quite liked it. Peter Gallagher plays Zoey's father who is dying of a degenerative neurological disease and cannot talk/move much, and I legit cried for several minutes when he started singing, even though I was fully expecting it to happen.
It reminded me of Wonderfalls a bit. The pilot is streaming on Youtube if you wanna check it out: [link]

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Vonnie, I was disappointed when I saw the first commercials for Zoey's and realized that the music wasn't going to be original like Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, but then some people were comparing it to Eli Stone, which I loved. So, I might give it a chance. It's sitting on the DVR right now.
