Fairly quiet night tonight on TV. NCIS, the Dancing With the Stars results show (and we’ll have more kids dancing), and Womens Murder Club.
And now here’s the Dancing With the Stars report!
What was up with Samantha’s dress? Man… UGLY!!! Then Tom Bergeron called Len “Crankypants”. Has he done that before? Or did he steal it from me???
Last night the teams chose their dances from a hat.
- Cristian de le Fuente & Cheryl - They got stuck with the two dances they had the night he got injuured! Harsh! First up was the Viennese waltz which was lovely. But I cracked up when Tom, referring to Cheryl’s dress, said, “Is anyone missing a weather balloon?” (It was this silvery mylar material.) They scored 27/30 for the waltz. Then they had the samba. This was the dance during which he got injured. But this time it was smokin’! They scored 29/30 for a total of 56/60 for the night.
- Jason Taylor & Edyta - Their first dance was a great foxtrot. They scored 28/30 for it. I didn’t think their paso doble was as good as their first one, but the judges liked it, so what do I know?
- Marissa Jaret Winokur & Tony - They did a great quickstep which netted them 26/30. And she had a great dress for a change! Then they did a smokin’ hot rumba. Well… Len, Bruno and I thought so anyway. Carrie Ann apparently borrowed the crankypants.
- Kristi Yamaguchi & Mark - Their first dance was a sultry, smokin’ tango for which they got 29/30. Then they followed it up with a fabulous jive. They got 28/30 for a total of 57/60 which put her back at the top of the leader board.
I wrote about 3/4 of a page last night.
Reading: I set the library book aside so I could read the book for which I’ve been waiting a year to read. Don’t Hex with Texas by Shanna Swendson. I love this series so much and I’m seriously disappointed that Ballantine has chosen not to publish the fifth and final book in the series. *sigh* I rarely buy trade paperbacks that are brand spankin’ new and hot off the presses, but this is one of my exceptions.
Thanks for the recap!
Is there a reason Ballantine gave for not publishing the entire series? That seems really odd they wouldn’t do all the books since I’ve heard great things about the series?

What? What? They’re not publishing the last book???
How is that POSSIBLE? That series ROCKS!!
Grrr… who do I write my complaint letter to?

Thanks for the recap Tori. I heard something about CarrieAnn having a wardrobe malfunction. What happened?

Sorry to hear that the 5th book won’t be released.
Good news on the 3/4 of a page last night.
Have a good evening! Can’t wait to see the results show tonight for DWTS!
