Random Quickie  
Randomness is my best friend.

1. We are *so* kicking America's ass at the World Women's Hockey right now.

1b. Watching hockey makes me feel very, very violent and angry. Maybe this is why I don't/shouldn't play competetive sports anymore. I recall a day when I would purposefully kick girls' shins so they'd leave me alone with the soccer ball. Yes. I was a violent child. Are you really surprised??

2. House was un-fricking-believably fantastic tonight. I should be bothered by how much House pokes fun at Cuddy's ass, but oddly, I'm not.

3. Work sucks. No, that's not true. Work is okay, (some of) the people SUCK. My situation sucks. This succccccks (said in Hodgins-fashion).

4. Watched "Aliens in a Spaceship" again last night. Pure win. Best. Season. Two. Episode. Ever. (don't confuse that with "best moment" - which is a huge toss up between many Hodgela moments such as the swing-date, the Cleopatra's bed scene, the rescued kiss, and the snuggly-wuggly smelting moment - among others).

House! Yipes!!!  
Just a mini post to say that WOW! How insanely awesome does the promo for next week's House look?!?? It's called "Airborne", and you can Check it out here

House and Cuddy fly back from Singapore, encountering an outbreak on the plane. - From the official Fox page.

Yipes!!! I have so many questions I want answered, firstly: what are House AND Cuddy doing in Singapore?!? TOGETHER?!?!?

*fans self* Okay, time to relax. Probably just a work thing. Yes, yes, I'm sure that's it. But still ... that preview .... ack!!

Tuesday cannot come fast enough!!

On the spoiler front, I've only been mildly paying attention to House spoilers (usually through either Ausiello's report, or through E!'s Kristin), but all the info I've heard has been related to the Chameron relationship (Chase/Cameron), and nothing pertaining to Huddy.

My personal thoughts: House and Cuddy should just GET TOGETHER already, because she desperately wants a baby, and I'm sure House's little soldiers could help her with that. She's having troubles, yes, but if House's little soldiers are anything like him - they'll stubbornly find a way to make a baby happen!

[/RANT]

EDIT: Somehow, my television obsessions are melting into my unconscious mind. Last night/this early a.m. (since I didn't get to sleep until after 2 a.m.) my wacky mind created a dream where I was in an old basement with Angela (from Bones) and Izzie (from Grey's Anatomy), and both Izzie and I were in love with Angela (???), and trying to win her attention. In addition, we were stuck in the basement with a bunch of other people (whom I didn't know, but the dream-me did) and couldn't get out. We kept prying the windows open, but there were snipers outside who were going to kill us, so we kept having to barracade the windows back up. Then suddenly Angela was pregnant, my tooth fell out - and I ended up at the dentist asking him to cement it back in. And I woke up. *shakes head at the strangness of the mind*

TV Land Blah Blah  
This week's television viewing had some definitely high peaks, and some definite lows. Let's start at the beginning (with the low)...

Sunday brought along one of the best, most well-written episodes of Crossing Jordan ever produced in its 6 seasons on air. There have been few that have touched me as deeply as "33 Bullets" did.

My avitar marks a little tribute to
 
The Loss of Det Lu Simmons. Lu arrived as a new character to Crossing Jordan last season (I think) and I immediately hated her guts. She was a "know it all", and when she hooked up with Woody - grrrr - I was not a happy camper at all. When rumours surfaced that the writers would be "killing of a main character" on the show this season, I immediately thought "please, let it be Lu" because I really couldn't stand her. In the premiere this year, she made it her duty to have Jordan thrown in jail for a murder that she couldn't have committed.

But by the second episode of the new season, I had fallen for Lu. She seemed to be a totally different person - friendly, outgoing, and even a little naughty (Jordan-naughty). The friendship between her and Jordan seemed to be building, and it was good! They worked well together and it was nice to see Jordan with another female in the field.

BUT alas ... this past Sunday came, the third new episode, and of course ... Lu had to go. *Sniffle*. Tears have been shed for the episode, for the awesome acting done by Jill Hennessy, Leslie Bibb, and Jerry O'Connell. I cried when:

- Jordan was shouting at Lu to argue with her, dammit!
- Lu said, "I feel ... calm"
- Jordan, after trying unsuccessfully to keep Lu's heart going, whispered, "I'm sorry, hon"

I get a little misty just *thinking* about the episode right now ... it was amazing, and moving and ... sigh. Mustn't dwell...

A Lu Tribute:

               

AND THEN ...

On Wednesday, I was rewarded with the LONG AWAITED new Bones episode. But since I've recently started a continuing education course that had to be on Wednesdays ... I had to wait until Thursday night to watch the episode.

Still ... it was amazing too! Brennan's arch-enemy Howard Epps found his way out of prison, and was on the loose - making each of Brennan's close friends his personal targets. Poor Cam (and yes, I said "poor Cam". After losing Lu this week, I've decided to start enjoying Cam just in case the writers of Bones are chatting with the writers of CJ and get some ideas) ... with her inhaled plaster dust, and Angela with the heart, and AWWWW ... Hodgie saying "if Epps comes near Angela, I'll KILL HIM".

And
oh my word ... when Zach and Booth end up with the bomb planted in Caroline's ... shudder .... body, and the news report that follows the blast states that "Zach Addy died at the scene" ... oh my word (again) ... I nearly passed right out. After losing Lu, I couldn't believe that ANOTHER character was gone. Thankfully ... it turned out to be a story the FBI had planted, and Zach was okay (big sigh of relief). I really don't think my brain, or heart could have taken another television-related death.

So that was my excitement for the week ... television. I also had a new House to look forward to (with an unusually nice mix of sarcastic House and serious House) as well. Ah House ...

While I'm here, and on the topic ... I though I'd share some of my most favourite websites pertaining to these lovely shows ...

My most absolute favourite-check-it-daily one... *drumroll*

SEARCHING BONES - It's seriously your "one stop for all the most current Bones info". Lynn, who runs the site, has got picture galleries, cast information, character information, and the most prompt episode recaps I've ever seen! Kudos to you, Lynn!

Also,
Conlin Online - the only known fan site dedicated to the awesome actress, Michaela Conlin (Angela Montenegro on Bones)

I think that's about it. There's also Lynn's House Is Right website (same awesome up-to-date stories), and the Crossing Jordan Encyclopedia (a smaller site). Not to mention, the official sites for Bones, Crossing Jordan, and House are all pretty good.

HAPPY TV VIEWING!
