That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Thanks, -t and Calli. I've been working summers in MI for years so I've had the fudge in TC, but since this was my first trip to the island I figured fudge was required.

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

Oh god. NBC is remaking Prime Suspect. Leave it alone, people. Helen Mirren already won Emmys for that, didn't she?

re: insurance

The universe looks after me and Hubby in odd ways. This news story is about my insurance/hospital/doctor system, Intermountain Healthcare.

President Barack Obama has repeatedly singled out Intermountain, along with the Mayo and Geisinger clinics and other so-called "organized practices," for delivering high-quality care at below-average costs. They are "islands of excellence in the sea of high cost mediocrity" as one Dartmouth report puts it; standouts in a country where cost and quality can vary wildly by geographic region.

One of the big reasons I haven't seriously thought of moving out of Utah is because these folks have kept Hubby alive for over a decade, and I don't want to take him away from them.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

How many times has Hollywood not ruined British TV? There's The Office...

My god, who would they get to star in that? The only person I can think of is Glen Close, and she is occupied.
