Sophie Update and This Week on CSI

[bunchofgrapes]

Sophie had her surgery today and is back home. And boy, is she ever happy to be home! She's been clingy all day but I think part of the reason is because she's a hurtin' kitty. I got some pain meds to give the little girl and she took the first dose okay but it's obvious she's still in a bit of pain. She keeps making this squinty face and she won't settle down. I think she will when I go to bed though. She has a couple of shaved front legs and her tail has a little pom pom on the end and three inches of shaved tail. They put stitches in her tail and I was worried that she might be pulling at them but every time she looks at it, she instantly turns away, like it hurts to even think about licking at it. I should hear in the next few days whether the growth is benign or malignant. If it's malignant, her tail will have to come off. Obviously, I'm really hoping it's benign.



The clip of the old Astro Quest and we see the Karate Chop of Doom, made famous in every 60's TV show. Ah, good times.

I really liked this. It was funny, had nice team interaction and Brass continues his quest to be awesome.

Hodges: Jim, it's Hodges.
Brass: Who?
Hodges: From Trace. We have a situation from the Whatifacon
Brass: The Whatifawhat? How'd you get this number?
Hodges says something about cloning Grissom's cell phone and then: He's dead, Jim

It only took 9 years for someone to say it.

Anyone catch the cameo of Grace Park in the crowd, right before RDM shouted, "you suck"?

Doc is mean. I'm sorry, but gray hair doesn't make the guy Mr. Loveable. I think he's Mr. Surly. I understand that David was driving Doc crazy with quotes but seriously, Doc is not nice. And I've never liked how pissy he generally is to Brass.

Love Brass' jaunty run up the stairs of the geek house. He even gives a little hop as he starts up the stairs. He seemed amused by the mother's resigned look. Loved the "not amused" look he gives the two scifi buddies during their interview.

Brass and Kate Vernon's character were great together. I loved how sympathetic he was to her. He even promises to do everything to help her. He doesn't say that very often. But I love the way he trumps her on "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest". Even better though was his, "an epistemological dichotomy? I just call that second degree murder." The professor didn't realize the cop was a very smart guy.

I really love Weddle and Thompson. I hope they keep writing CSI because I love their episodes.

All it takes sometimes is hot goaltending. The Rangers are not that good but Lundqvist had a hot stick and got in the Caps' heads during the first couple of games. After game 1, we pulled our inconsistent goaltender in favor of the very young AHL rookie and he got in their heads (posted two shut-outs). Tim Thomas had the hot stick in Boston. I'm guessing Hiller got in the Sharks' head and that was all she wrote. If a team can't figure out the goaltender, they'll never recover.

I'm looking forward to the 'Canes - Bruins series. The 'Canes are a hot team and the pathetic Habs didn't do Boston any favors by giving them such an easy series. Boston could be in for a nasty surprise.

Pens - Caps will be good too, if only because of the hate we have for Sindy Crosby. I know the Caps can beat all the teams in the East--we took the series with all the remaining teams. If we make it to the Cup final though, we probably lose--unless it's Detroit. The Caps don't do well against West Coast teams.

Hiller so got into the Sharks' heads. Don't know if you saw any of the games, but the only game where the Sharks skated well and were smooth and cohesive was in game 3. The other games they just never got going and gave the puck away and just skated plain ugly. And the fights, holy crap, some of them were superb.

It'll be interesting to see where the Caps go. I'm certainly not rooting for the Ducks, that's for sure.
