Grey’s Anatomy October 25, 2007

October 25, 2007 by Amy Leave a Comment

In the words of Alex, "Happy Freakin’ Halloween".  Wasn’t that great?  Wow, I thought last week was good but this week was REALLY, REALLY good.  I think the less interns we see, the better.  Unless it’s George of course.  So yeah, let’s start with George.

Maybe it’s not George I want to start with as much as Callie about George.  Callie’s announcement to the entire room that George and Izzie had slept together was FANTASTIC.  Leave your mouth wide open kind of fantastic.  I can’t believe she did that but it made for some fanstastic tv.  In fact this week had some great scenes and lines…so here we go.

Christina’s comment about Meredith’s "mommy bag" right after Callie’s big announcement had me laughing.

Meredith and Derek meet in the hallway with her mother’s ashes and talk about whether to put them in the cubby or car.  The little boy interrupts and Meredith says, "Can you take care of him?" And I love when Derek says, "Can you take care of…her."

Alex and Ava!!  Honestly I really want Alex and Izzie together but this really was a great reunion for Alex.  Nice to see Alex on the prowl again.

The man with the chainsaw and the foot.  He was crazy.  Period.  However, did anyone see loose ends tied up with that?  Last I saw the guy was in surgery.

Dr. Hahn’s comment about Christina…I was saying "What?!" with Christina but it was still great to see her put in her place.

I really liked Lexie’s dead cat story and liked Lexie and Meredith getting along.  They have good chemistry with one another.

So my friend and I were watching this show and we were just saying how NO marriage can survive on this show.  The only exception we could think of was Bailey’s.  And then hers seems to be going downhill all the sudden.  Nice to see some personal stuff with Bailey.  Last I remember she was wiping breast milk off her scrubs.

Christina telling off Hahn right before she finds out she’s the new head of Cardio-Thurasic (sp?) Surgery was just..nice.  Love how she takes it out on the chief.

So the kid with the new ears is telling Meredith he flushed his goldfish down the toilet so they could "go back to the sea".  Please don’t tell me Mer is going to flush her mother down the toilet.  But no, in all of Grey’s beauty, Meredith pours her down the sink at the scrub station and it was just beautiful.  Perfectly beautiful.

I started with George and I may as well end with him.  Izzie and his declaration "We made it through this day." was almost poetic.  And honestly, it didn’t produce any aw-ing from me because I’m still not into the Gizzie of it all but it was a nice moment.

So next week’s previews seem a little crazy, a little confused I think.  The only thing I clearly remember was Izzie claiming that Gizzie would be be having hot s-e-x.  Nice, can’t wait to blog about that.

  • I’m thankful for being encouraged through my pastor to persevere in a tough situation.
  • I’m thankful to God for answering my prayers–again…seems like He keeps doing that 😉
  • I’m thankful for a wonderful family who notice when something’s wrong and ask about it.
  • I’m thankful for a husband that is so willing to protect me, not just physically, but emotionally.
  • I’m thankful my job that is so flexible that allows me to go to Fall Festivals on Thursday mornings.
  • I’m thankful for all the free stuff I got this week.
  • I’m thankful for how much money menu planning has saved us.  Especially this week when our account is just about at zero.
  • I’m thankful for a Christian preschool and how much the teachers care about my children.
  • Even though it sounds corny, I AM thankful for the extra money earned through my paid posts this week.

Today the girls got to wear their costumes for the first time to their school’s Fall Festival.  Best I can tell, it’s Belle from Beauty and the Beast: A Christmas Story meets Jessie from Toy Story 2.

The Hills Music October 22, 2007

October 24, 2007 by Amy Leave a Comment

I get hits every week on my site for people looking for the music played during The Hills episode.  A little google search turned up this list from the episode…

A Fine Frenzy-Near To You
Mark Ronson-God Put A Smile On Your Face
Tegan and Sara- Back In Your Head
Nick Howard-The Pressure
Gran Ronde-Retrace
The Aggrolites-Free Time
Jill Cunniff-Lazy Girls
Luna Halo-World On Fire
Eisley-Invasion
David Condos-I Should Be Lost Without You
The Bravery-Believe
I-94-This Time Around
Nouvelle Vague-I Melt With You

Since I think the music is pretty cool myself and wouldn’t mind a few more mp3s to add to my iPod, I’ll try to include this in any weekly episodes I write up. 

You’re welcome 🙂

Not a great day

October 24, 2007 by Amy Leave a Comment

This afternoon particularly was rough for me.  There’s been another meeting scheduled with our youth council for this Friday and I started completely stressing about it.  By the time Scott got home right before 5, he found me in a pool of tears on our bed.  Not a great welcoming back home.  But I say that to say this.  God answers prayers.  I’ve been so hopeless with our situation and all of the leaders being able to get along and I just have been begging God to show us the right thing to do.  I don’t know if I have my permanent answer but for today, right now, a weight was lifted off.  I don’t feel the anger, stress and worry that I felt this afternoon and it is many thanks to our pastor that showed this video during his guest-speaking sermon tonight in youth group.  But more than that, many thanks to God for giving me what I needed when I needed it.  I have no idea what Friday will bring but at least I’m going into it with the proper attitude.

If you know anything about Contemporary Christian music in the past 15 years or so, I’m sure you’ve heard of dc Talk or Toby Mac.  This video features dc Talk members Michael and Toby talking about their friendship.  It spoke volumes to me about our youth council and that there’s hope.

The video is kinda long at 10 minutes so if you don’t want to watch it, the best part is the last minute or two of Toby talking.

P.S. Kevin and Toby are still HOT!

Something funny

October 24, 2007 by Amy Leave a Comment

I mentioned the other day really needing to laugh.  I finally read something tonight that made me laugh out loud.  Many thanks to Heather at Especially Heather.  Now if I can just find a way to work in remarks like that back to the company’s audit department…

Business Christmas cards

October 24, 2007 by Amy Leave a Comment

Is your son or daughter creative and in need of some college scholarships soon? Yeah, I’ve got two girls to hopefully put through college one day and I’d consider them creative. That’s why I wish my girls were old enough to enter this greeting cards scholarship contest. $10,000 would put a nice little dent in tuition costs and if you happen to have a son or daughter 14 years old or older, this seems like a no-brainer to enter. I think this is great since so many scholarships are based on academics, this gives your children to express their creative side in order to earn some money.

This company’s main objective is to sell business Christmas cards so keep that in mind when you or your child is designing the card. I imagine green cards with a forest in gold or Happy Holidays written in silver on blue. But that doesn’t sound very creative does it? Well, I’ll leave the work up to you or your children as I finished all the tuition-earning I plan to do in my lifetime about 12 years ago–haha, I’m sure I’ll be filling out all the scholarship forms right along side my girls in about 15 years. The contest has already started and you have until January 15, 2008 to come up with a birthday, holiday or even all-occasion greeting card. Good luck!
