With how little sleep I end up getting over the weekend I really should call it a night. Sometimes I think the reason I put off sleep is the feeling of delaying the things I'd rather not do tomorrow. Said things tend to involve being at work and taking someone's brand of shit with a smile.

Miss Austen Regrets made me cry AND made me want to read a good biography of her. Anyone have any recommendations?

So, I take it I should now watch Miss Austen Regrets instead of the SGA ep that I haven't seen yet?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
House did make me laugh and smile. That show is just consistently entertaining. Here is my question-- it may have been answered and I missed it.
So does the station not have an internist? Is the only doctor on site not a specialist in clinical medicine? Or is she somehow a psych/GP?

Good luck. There's not a lot of info out there, so biographies end up either being very thin, or containing a lot of speculation. Not as bad as with Shakespeare, but still very unsatisfying.

I did see a documentary a few years ago that said Carter came into office bringing into his administration people who were naive in what they thought they could do, and condescending to the Democratic power structure of the day.The analysis I have picked up somewhere and retained -- which doesn't mean it's accurate but it stuck in my head -- is related to that. Basically, Carter's campaign was largely about how he wasn't a DC insider and so so he'd be shaking things up and wouldn't be doing business as usual and all that. And in his case he really was an outsider, and that was the problem. He and his staff didn't have connections with anyone in DC, and so he couldn't get anything done.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
That was a good episode of House. DH had a lot of ideas about who Wilson was seeing but he did not guess Amber. Why he knew her name and I knew her as cutthroatbitch is beyond me. But there were just some amazing lines. Really funny

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I was on the phone for most of House and had the sound off. The end looked like the problem all along was a broken toe. Is that really what happened?

megan - kind of what I had guesssed, but the biopic made me curious about what happened to her brothers and sisters. . . they all seemed in such a precarious position.
