Six Feet Under
(Yes, I am doing some catching up, aren't I?)

DVDs are an amazing thing. Friends with DVDs are even better.

We haven't yet made it to the end of the first season. Zelda's friend Anna has a new baby brother, born on Saturday - his name is Henry. Welcome, Henry!

So we had to drop everything this weekend to take care of Anna, which was cool. But it meant no time for dark comedies about death. We may polish them off tonight, who knows.

Yesterday was Toni's 30th week of pregnancy. Calvin was born dead at 30 weeks. Something of a milestone. Things began lightening up at this point with Zelda ... oh, who am I kidding, of course they didn't. But at least this wasn't hanging over our heads.

But we did watch the "crib death" episode the other night, Friday night. Yippee. Glad Rico was back, and I wasn't as antsy about the subject as the handling of the subject. Putting together words like "mild" and "preeclampsia" make me irritable, to say the least. And, of course, Rico's baby lived.

I was amused when Nate used the "some baby's are too good for this world" line on the parents of the deceased 3-week old. I hate it when people say things like that, and it made his character a little less perfect. He always knows the right thing to say to the bereaved, doesn't he? Uh, no, he doesn't. And who of us do?
