fenrisrangerSo. Didn't see all of the House (missed the intro and the last 15-20 minutes) because I was at the gym and we left early because my left hip gave out on the treadmill and my dad was having low blood sugar. But from what I have seen, I'll say this much:
House, you just try being mean to Cuddy again. I'll jump through the fucking screen and break your other leg. *comforts Cuddy with cuddling and hair strokingand sex*
This is probably my new favorite episode because of the Cuddy. Snarky!Cuddy, administrator!Cuddy, mommy!Cuddy, self-sacrificing!Cuddy,wet!Cuddy. . . . The beginning was all funnylike (I was all *gigglesnort handovermouth* so as not to draw attention from the people on the treadmills around me) but then House just started pissing me off. Even at the beginning, he was all "laser pointer on boobs, lol" and I was saying under my breath "kick his ass, Cuddy. Go do it. Pull him away from the windows so your moneygiver types won't see, and sock him one.
Though I couldn't stop my laughing at "It's never lupus". I almost fell off the treadmill.
SVU wasn't that interesting except for Casey's bitching at Olivia. What was up with that? *coughsexualtensioncough* After the ep, though, they were all "NBC.com online live chat with the Mariska" and I was all *runs to computer*. There were so many people on that the blog server was having a lot of trouble keeping up. And it said comments didn't get posted but they did, so I've got about 5 of them on there on different threads asking the same thing. I started trying to post when there were only like 30 comments on the questions thread, and by the time that it actually showed up that I had posted, they were up to like 2000. The question more or less went like this:
What was with Casey's attitude towards Olivia this episode? Her pretty much blatant hostility and personal attacks seemed off from their normally civil, if not friendly, relationship. Is there some upcoming character development that will explore this, or is it simply the clash of both of their passionate drives to get the bad guys? If the latter, how did this affect the way you acted that scene?
Because I'm interested in how she interpreted that scene, as it came out of nowhere, IMO. Though it's not going to get answered, looks like, as there's so many people that there's like no chance, plus she's only been answering more personal or general questions, not acting-related and specific episode questions. Too bad.
Somebody screwed something up on my computer so it's all in "Windows Classic" style. (I totally typed "Wilson" there. No idea why. Well, some idea.) And I can't change it back; XP style isn't a choice anymore. Going to have to do a system restore, see if that will fix it. I'm a little worried, as I loaded a downloaded game (dangerousbadbadbad) right before this and other bad random computery problem things started happening. And I don't want to have to uninstall the game.
Did english presentation. Mine was already running towards the 10 minute mark (and she cuts us off at 8) when I was practicing it and going fast, so I was cutting things out right and left during 6th hour so it would fit within the 8 minutes for presenting during 7th. I get there, it turns out that she's counting our reading of the excerpt as part of our time. Didn't tell us that. My passage was extra long because I wanted to get in this theme shift. So that was 4 minutes right there. I ended up cutting out practically every other line to get my presentation from the 8 minutes I had already trimmed it to down to 4 to fit in the time constraints. With no time to figure out what to cut, I just had to pretty much wing the entire thing up there on the podium.
And then every single flaw type missing thing she pointed out to me when she showed me my grade was in my original presentation. Didn't have good enough transitions between topics? Because I didn't have time. Not enough connections to the rest of the story? I cut them down from 6 examples to two because I didn't have time. So it's kinda not fair that the people from now on will know that they have to count their passage reading time while I know that I could have gotten a better score if I had known that and had time to actually think about how to trim down my time. (And I really wish that the presentation could have been longer, because I did have a lot of good points that I didn't get to make.)
Still, I got an A on it (the highest score so far, though I was only the 5th to go, but still in the group of the highest scores ever because the rubric they use is silly and everyone ends up getting Bs on it) and I only wrote it half last night and half during the day today and then basically threw out everything I wrote and made stuff up based my basic ideas while I was up there. So that's cool.
