TABLE OF CONTENTS note. Hawk Topics writer Chris Raine (page 16) balances Grey's Anatomy every week. But last Thursday's episode had me sigging with the characters. I have those. Last week's Grey's was about 'people.' Friends' Best friends. Count them as family friends. Unnumbered. Last week, as Jayplay was about to go to print, we realized we needed a photo of a Big Mac. My vegetarian friend Autumn braved the drive-thru and delivered the sandwich. Jackie, my sister, is the count-them-as-family kind of family. When photos fell through for this week's Jayplay, she spent Monday and Tuesday creating art that we weren't even sure we would print. I needed her, and she was there. When Christina stood at the foot of Meredith's bed during last weeks Grey's, I imagined it was Jackie, Cam or Autumn fighting for life. And I imagined Chris Raine making fun of that fight, cried, and I laughed. Laughing and the crying at the same time... that's what makes Grey's Anatomy — and my family — great. And my best friend (happy birthday, Cam) bought me a doughnut. He drove a crew of drunk people to Joe's Bakery, and remembered that blueberry cake doughnuts always make me feel better. It may seem like a pastry to you, but to me it meant understanding. I guess I'm a lot like Dani Hurst, who writes on page 19 that an egg roll can help on a bad day, even if it's not kosher.
