Yesterday, laurificus linked me to this post by Maggie Stiefvater and it's so horrifying and heartbreaking and enraging. I'm so glad that she got a diagnosis and treatment before anything totally irrevocable happened, but I know so many women - and I know you do too - who have had similar infuriating experiences with the American medical establishment.

Anyway, laurificus mentioned doing a TRC reread before Call Down the Hawk comes out on 11/5, and since I finished the book I was reading earlier, I think I might do that. I think I've only actually read TRK twice (I've read the rest of the series numerous times) so I could definitely stand to reread.

This morning, I was in a conference call that should have been a no-brainer but this is the only organization I've ever been in where people get into shouting matches over actuarial assumptions. It's ludicrous and yet it keeps happening! Those of us in the room just boggled at each other (the phone was on mute) while this went on. Seriously, it's ridiculous.

Also ridiculous, as in ridiculously good: last night's The Good Place: Tinker, Tailor, Demon, Spy!

Those of you who knew it was Glenn, four for you! (Apparently the actor's name was in the credits? Who knew?) Also thumbs up to those who guessed it was a highly evolved Bad Janet masquerading as our Janet, rather than Vicky in a Michael suit. And Jason is the MVP of the episode for figuring it out! And then giving the inspirational speech and heading to hell in a handcart with Michael to punch Shawn in the mouth and rescue her!

And Chidi is the second MVP of the episode because he's just such a good dude and especially so with Eleanor. <333

I just wish Tahani was getting more to do.

In other news, I woke up at about 4:25 this morning and didn't get back to sleep until almost 6, so I'm ready to be done for the day. Why do I still have 3 more hours to go? *sobs*
