In which she recommends chicken drumsticks baked in bacon

Boots is unhappy at not being able to take advantage of my recommendation!

I note with interest that the episode acknowledges the fact that someone can be in a het relationship but still be bisexual. Okay, they acknowledge it in rather offensive ways, but, um. It's something?

In which she remembers she forgot to say something

Not about House, about the vertigo. Although come to think of it, it's thematically appropriate to the "I crowdsource my second opinion on the internet" subplot.

What I forgot to mention was that when I went to the doctor about my mild vertigo, he said that antihistamines could be good for vertigo! (Which he pronounced "ver-TIE-go". I had to look it up in the dictionary when I got back to my laptop to make sure it wasn't another one of those words I've been mispronouncing my entire life, like "segue". (Dear English: "segue" totally rhymes with "intrigue". I'm just saying.)) Anyway, and so I said, "Huh, I was reading about that on Wikipedia! --Uh, not that I consult Wikipedia about my medical problems or anything, I just happened to kind of sort of... Well, look, I'm here now, okay?"

He was very gracious about that, considering.

Anyway, that was what I was going to say. But while I'm here I'll add that the vertigo is occasionally still noticeable, and by some bizarre coincidence it tends to be more noticeable after nights when I haven't had enough sleep. So I should go to sleep now.

Right after adding that my alien aka Bible bump aka ganglionic cyst thingy has receded noticeably recently. I like to think it's the antihistamines. Antihistamines cure everything(1), people!

(1) It's true, I read it on Wikipedia.
