The last remaining survivor of the Titanic passed away early yesterday morning in her sleep. Millvina Dean was only two months old when the Titanic sank. She died at age 97. To her and all the other passengers of that grand old (but not nearly as unsinkable as originally thought) ship, may you all rest in peace.
And my thoughts and prayers go out to the passengers of missing Air France flight AF447 and their families.
My hands are driving me insane. I think I’m finally going to have to break down and spend as little time on the computer as possible for awhile. So, I’ll be reading your blogs, friends, but may not be commenting.
The only thing on tonight is Life After People. I may just record that, though. We’ll see.
Reading: Finished up Never Say Sty and now I’m reading 4 Bodies and a Funeral by Stephanie Bond. This is the fourth (hence the 4 in the title *g*) book in the Body Movers series. This time around, our heroine Carlotta Wren ends up in the midst of the beginning of a serial killer’s rampage.
I just added up the number of books I read in May and it was the same exact number as Dru! How’s that for bizarre? I read 13 myteries, 6 fantasies, 4 childen’s/YA, and one action/adventure.
That is cool that you read the same number of books.
We have similar taste in books as far as the mysteries goes.
Take care of your hands.

I read about the last Titanic survivor’s death this morning. How sad. Sorry to hear about your hands. I hope taking some time from typing helps them. You and Dru are smoking me in the reading area lately. But, I may catch up this summer. *G*
Again, I hope your hands feel better soon.

Wow, I hadn’t heard that about the last survivor. How sad and interesting at the same time. Wow.
