Early Winter

This morning I had frost on my windshields, and they became snow when I scrapped them, so there it is - Oct 22, 2008 is the first day I see snow this winter, and it is not a great feeling to see it so early.

Time to pack away summer clothes, take out scarf and gloves, and get ready for cold mornings

ER
In season premiere Dr. Greg Pratt passed away, now Dr. Abby Lockhart has left (along with Luca) to Boston in the 3rd episode of season 15 (last season).

As I watch the story unfolds, I feel like I am losing pieces of my memory, of ER, of this great show, and the countless moments where life, whether bright or dark, unveils before you, in this tiny place called the Emergency Room.
Abby has been in ER since Season 6, still reckless as usual, but she has grown up from a nurse into a brilliant doctor who understands the patients and will go the extra distance to care for them.
Her personal life [in the show] was nothing to write home about, but to make someone who has been around for so long disappear in 1 episode with a lame story of moving to Boston, it hurts. It hurts less than the death of Dr. Pratt or Dr. Green, but Abby is my favorite character and she will be dearly missed

  1. Ahhh! Don't remind me. :/ I was out lastnight waiting for what seemed like forever at Ottawa/Wilderness for a bus to come in this bitter cold we've been having. I actually saw the first signs of frost a couple of days ago, but yesterday was the first day to break out the winter jacket - I wasn't impressed.

    Not much of an ER fan but I know the feeling of loosing a character you've grown attached to. It takes time to re-adapt and then the show never ends up being quite the same.

    Looking forward to Monday, perhaps a Heroes take? ha. Keep warm in the meantime. :)
