Katie and Emmy made me watch the final two episodes of White Collar because Katie hates me and Emmy likes watching Katie torment me.

I just-- NO. NO. You do not eat food in an archive! You do not have sex against the closed stacks in an archive! You do not go into an archive with "Well, I have a vague physical description of this dude, and know he landed in 1946 at Ellis Island, but I don't have a name or anything else!" (Okay, yes, people do that. But NO. NO.)

I-- Thing--- No! Closed stacks! No other researchers! food in the archives omg.

Now I am dead. DEAD.

dead.



:(

archives woe.

Doctor Doctor!

Folks, I have a question!

If I were to ask you to list the top doctor characters in fiction - Medical Doctor or PhD or people who are Healers or Herb Witches or Midwives or basically anyone of that type of character, any medium of fiction - who would you list?

They don't need to be "good" characters. Just your personal favourites. If you have time to tell me why or link me to some great "This character is awesome because" things, that would be ace, but names are good.

I'd appreciate if you asked your friends to participate as well!

(I guess The Doctor counts, but you can only list him 11 times.)

(yes this is for a thing.)

Yay archives?

I'm so excited about people's Awesome Doctor lists. Thank you!

I look forward to reading them in a bit more detail. I have cleverly spent the evening in the archives, reading very blurry microfilm, and my eyes are so very very sore and my head is very achy.

But I have found out Interesting Things about the Halifax newspapers and their separate treatment of the Asylum for the Blind. (Also interesting things about exactly how blurry something can be before I can't read it anymore. Owwwwwww.)
