I’m too sleepy to be too wacky today. So we’ll just have to cope. *g* Not a lot going on around here.
On this date in 1892, sophisticated and cynical actor William Powell was born. Powell is most famous for his role as Nick Charles in The Thin Man movies and the title lead in My Man Godfrey. What I didn’t realize is that he was, at one time, married to Carole Lombard, his co-star in My Man Godfrey. She later went on to marry Clark Gable. Powell died in 1984 at age 91.
And on this date in 1914, the first transcontinental telephone call was made between San Francisco and New York City.
Tonight on TV, I’ll be hunting spooks with the team from Ghost Hunters International and then I’ll be getting even with miscreants with the gang from Leverage. Fun evening!
Much to my shock, I wrote THREE PAGES last night!!! 
They need massive revisions but the skeleton of the ending is there. Yay! As a reward, I’m going to play with my steampunk heroine today.
Reading: Now I’m reading The Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder by Joanne Fluke. I’m enjoying it.
Hey!
have fun on your play date! I hope she talks your ear off!!!!

I love the Thin Man series. They don’t make continuous movies like that anymore.
Yay on the three pages!!
