On this date in 1922, the tomb of Tutankhamun (more commonly known as King Tut—and, no, he wasn’t really born in Arizona 
) was opened to the public.
Movie choreographer Busby Berkeley was born on this date in 1895.
It was supposed to be rainy today. But the sun’s just come out. Yay!
Lots of Christmas movies on tonight. And I must watch Blackadder’s Christmas Carol because it’s such a hoot. Also we have Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.
Reading: I’m re-reading Once a Thief by Suzann Ledbetter. Chubby middle-aged home stage professional Ramey Burke answers her door one day to find her uncles and aunt who’ve recently been released from prison standing on her front porch. The Other Dillinger Gang, as they were known, needs a place to live and Ramey’s house is it. Which is fine and dandy until the day a dead body shows up in Ramey’s front yard. This is a cute funny mystery with romantic overtones. 
What channels are the Christmas movies? I’ve been looking for some of the old standards such as Miracle on 34th Street.

Enjoy your Christmas movies! It’s almost time for us to watch holiday movies, too. Glad to hear you had some sun today! That book sounds like fun, I may have to look that one up.
Have a great evening.
