the Dalaverse

I think these are the best cookies I've ever had. I said they were shortbread, but that really doesn't cover it -- they taste like shortbread, but they're wafer-thin (heeee) and soft and crumble into delicious buttery crumbs if you so much as look at them. And the raspberry is just right, just a thin layer mostly in the middle, but so sweet and tart...can I marry cookies? I don't even want the chocolate-covered ones, the chocolate just spoils it.

This morning I realized exactly why I wear the same four sweatshirts, over and over, every day. I went to class wearing a long-sleeved shirt under my peacoat, and while I was fine on the walk there (even though it was like eight degrees), with twenty minutes I was shivering in my chair. I put my scarf back on and draped the peacoat over my shoulders, and while it is wonderfully warm, it's not exactly comfortable in somewhat confined spaces like classroom desks. I have no idea why I get cold so easily; I ought to have enough body fat for sufficient insulation. But it looks like it's back to the sweatshirts until spring. I don't like my sweaters.

I also don't know why I bruise so easily and often walk around looking like somebody beats me. Right now I know where the bruise on my left knee -- I bumped it climbing out of the pool -- but there's a nice mysterious one on that thigh, and a completely inexplicable, weird-looking bruise over my right rib cage. How the hell did that happen? I swear I haven't passed out drunk recently. My right knee is also perma-marked, it seems; since I scraped the hell out of it at Doggie Dip Day last fall, it's been permanently purple and tender. It's not even scarred like a cut would be. Ah, my gimp knee. It's the same one I fucked up in Scotland. It's my Scottish knee ::pats it affectionately::

Also, is Meredith going to spend this whole damn episode sinking? It's 9:30!

OH MY GOD SHE'S BLUE. MEREDITH IS AS BLUE AS VIOLET BEAUGREGARD. And the skull-drilling and ::shudders::

Katherine Heigl has an absolutely beautiful smile. Izzie needs to be happy now, okay? Because that smile makes me forgive all her shit.

Annnnnnd I'm back to hating her again. Nothing she just said outside while Meredith was BLUE was okay, not the way she said it. Jesus, Shonda, did you actually think people would BUY that speech? I was fully onboard until that.

HOT KYLE! EEEEEE! Okay I'm back on fucking board. Even if it' sjust temporary death. DENNY! I don't care how cheesy a near-death experience episode may be, That was awesome.
