Academic House Arrest

On Thursday I had my first final, psychology. While studying for that I found this gem in my notes that I would like to share: "To maximize having offspring and investment men want to have sex with as many children as possible." I can only assume I meant women... Apparently I was not paying attention that day.
So finals are in full swing and I deal with stress by watching television which is bad because television takes a ton of time. Mostly I watch television because I can ignore my own life and focus on the show, while at the same time be reminded that there are bigger issues than my stress and other people are facing much worse issues than I am and, despite my sometimes global view, finals are not the most important thing in the world
This television therapy results in my discovering new shows around this time every year. This year I have found House. I guess I haven't really found it, I used to watch the show sporadically before my parents bought me a PVR (which, bit of trivia, is helpful in preventing depression because it helps provide an internal locus of control, just a bit more psychology for you).  This was around the same time that House fired/lost his entire team and I thought that I wouldn't enjoy the show anymore because, like I said before, I like the family aspect of procedurals. Little did I know that his team was not off the show and they would eventually become members of his team again.
I have watched season seven this week and, despite having read some fairly scathing reviews, I felt it was very well done. I don't feel that Amber Tamblyn's character is very likable but I think she's an interesting edition to the show and her morality (although sometimes unrealistic; see 7.11 Family Practice) is refreshing. What surprised me is that I didn't miss Thirteen, who is one of my favorite characters. I assume that is because I was so busy gushing over the adorableness that was House and Cuddy. Plus how could I not love a show about Sherlock Holmes if he was Benjamin Franklin Hawkeye Pierce.
I'm off to study for Perspective on Jesus, which I should have started doing two hours ago. But...I was watching House.
