One of Shonda's Many Great Creations: Owen and Cristina

My favorite GA couple!
*Phone rings
    
Cristina: Hey! So I was thinking about this whole internet dating thing. It takes five minutes..
    
Owen: Wait! That's why you paged me? You said this was urgent.
     
Cristina: It is. I'm about to get busy with this trial and you need someone to snow with on a rainy Seattle night. Ooh. Say that in your profile.
   
Owen: I, I.. I gotta go.
    
    
*While looking at some scans
   
Cristina: Did you do? The profile?
       
Owen: What, the dating thing? No.
    
   
*Cristina turns to the computer
      
Owen: Cristina I've spent all morning trying to figure out a way to fix this thing between Torres and Shepherd. I haven't had time.
    
Cristina: Sit. I'll do it for you. (typing) Describe yourself.
   
Owen: No.
    
Cristina: Stubborn. (Typing..)
     
Owen: I'm not being stubborn, I just..
   
Cristina: (still typing) Smart. Athletic..
   
Owen: Listen, I'm too busy to..
   
Cristina: A busy professional, seeks.. what?
    
Owen: Nothing! I seek nothing.
    
Cristina: Ah, seeks same, someone who's passionate about the work, someone who's.. come'on what
   
   
Owen in defeat looks at Cristina:
      
Fine, fine. Someone who doesn't care to cook or get out of bed when she's got a work day. Someone who sleeps so soundly and peacefully that I have to check her pulse sometimes. Someone who suffered and understands suffering.
   
Cristina: I'd keep it more up beat.
   
    
Owen continues:

..To the point that I don't have to say a word she just, she just looks at me and sees who I am and how I feel. Accepts it. She doesn't try to change, she doesn't want to change it. That person. There's a billion people out there but I imagine there's only one of her.




Me: Make up already! LOL

Rear View Mirror

Let your mistakes be in your rear view mirror - Far enough to forget, but close enough to guide. -Adapted


So I have been a little under the weather these past few days, and my motivation was no better. Last Monday, for some uncanny reason, my colleagues and I were throwing inspirational phrases, talks and whatnot that one of my seniors finally asked, 
"Nasan ba ako ngayon? Nasa simbahan ba ako? Wednesday bible sharing?" (Where am I? Church?)  
"No sir, nasa mga recovering addicts and alcoholics talk ka." (you're in the middle of a recovering addicts and alcoholics talk),  I replied laughing.
I'm not sure what it is, maybe we all need a little something to animate us while we stumble upon work, catastrophes, stress or LIFE itself every now and then. Who doesn't?
