chocolatepotI haaaaaaaaaaate having a cold. There's something about how prosaic the misery is - it's not like vomiting, which is so dramatic and debilitating. You just have to blow your nose over and over and over until your face hurts, and deal with the pain in your sinuses and down the sides of your neck from the drainage, and cough perpetually. Nobody else IRL takes your illness seriously because it's Just A Cold. And it lasts for weeks.
Well, I have bought an expensive chicken from the farmer's market to turn into soup. There will be matzoh balls. (I mostly try to buy my meat from the farmer's market which means it's expensive and so I don't eat it much at home.)
Deep into the Peneloise fic. It turns out that having Eloise recognize that she and Penelope are in very different positions (that is, that she has thin privilege and, uh, older-money privilege) is super cathartic for me.
Hacks feels like 30 Rock filmed more as a drama, I think. Like I can picture these actors doing exactly the same scripts but played a little more broad/slapsticky, with the 30 Rock background music. It's also interesting to watch s3 after having read (most of) a biography of Joan Rivers (it was by a journalist and wasn't very good, which is why I stopped reading it a bit after her husband died) and so having context for Deborah's desire to be a late-night host and her back catalogue of hideously offensive material.
