Luckily, this excuse does not apply to me. At least not today. *g*

It snowed here again. Crazy weather! It’s snowing here in Arkansas and in Vancouver which is hosting the Olympics in a few days, it’s 50 freakin’ degrees!!! What’s up with that?!

Got a few things on this date in Hollywood history:

In 1886, actor Charlie Ruggles was born

In 1894, director King Vidor was born

In 1915 D.W. Griffith’s controversial film The Birth of a Nation premiered in Los Angeles

In 1921, actress Lana Turner was born

In 1922, actress Audrey Meadows was born

In 1925, actor Jack Lemmon was born

In 1935, actor James Dean was born

Tonight is a fairly slow TV night, or rather it’s a night with no double (or triple) booking.

And I guess I’ll attempt to do some writing if I can ditch the brain fog.

Reading: I finished up Hold on Tight which I was sorry to see end. Can’t wait for the next book from Stephanie! Now I’m back to reading Untraceable by Laura Griffin. It’s set in Austin, Texas where I used to live so it’s fun playing “spot the locations I know”.

Nothing going on here. I’ve been wading through a bunch of podcasts I downloaded. And deleting a bunch of them. *g*

Since the Super Bowl is on tonight, there’s nothing else on so I’ll be watching recorded shows.

Reading: I’m almost finished with Hold on Tight which I am totally loving! Steph’s Navy SEALs rock!!! And so does the cover.

Well, I don’t drink at all, so this doesn’t really apply to me. But I’ve known people who could certainly use this as an excuse.

It’s still gloomy here. Rain, rain, GO. AWAY. And take that snow/wintry mix in the forecast with you! On the plus side, however, at least I don’t live on the East Coast. Yikes! They are getting buried under snow!

I’ve been listening to different music channels on satellite. I have now heard three different Lady GaGa songs. And I liked every one of them. Go figure.

There’s a horse race on this afternoon, but not a darn thing on tonight so I’ll be playing catch-up on recorded shows.

Did more tweaking on the Greek gods book last night. But today is going to be a genealogy day.

Reading: Last night I read Hot Spell by Michelle Rowen which is her first Harlequin Blaze book. It was very cute and fun and I Ioved it! Next up… Hold on Tight by New York Times Bestselling author (has the novelty worn off that yet, Steph? *g*) Stephanie Tyler. I already know ahead of time it’s going to rock because Steph’s books always do!
