Well, I can happily say I’ve never had cause to use that excuse!

We’ve started another round of celebrity deaths. This time it’s actress Rue McClanahan. She is probably best known as Blanche Devereux on The Golden Girls. She died from a massive stroke at the age of 76.

Tonight on TV, we have the return of Burn Notice and Royal Pains. Woohoo!!!

Reading: Finished up Dead in the Water and have now moved on to the next book in the series, Styx and Stones.

Well, maybe not. But I don’t want to be a sheep either….

It’s another gorgeous sunny day here. But also hot and humid. Ugh! So as long as I don’t have to be out in it, I should be fine.

My TV is still amazing and wonderful! I can see things on it I never noticed before. LOL!

I was remiss this past week by not reporting the celebrity deaths. We lost Art Linkletter (whose show always made me laugh), Gary Coleman (What you talkin’ ’bout, Willis?) and Dennis Hopper.

Tonight is the two-hour season premiere of Wipeout! which makes me very happy. I think it’s the funniest show on TV. And we have a repeat episode of Deadliest Warrior which I vaguely recall seeing but I don’t remember who won.

Reading: Now I’m re-reading Damsel in Distress by Carola Dunn. This is the next Daisy Dalrymple book.

This excuse has to be accompanied by scraping your fingernails over the phone’s transmitter to be truly effective. :rofl:

On this date in history:

  • 1924 – J. Edgar Hoover was appointed as the Director of the United States’ Federal Bureau of Investigation, and remained so until his death in 1972. I wonder if he wore a dress, heels and pearls when he was appointed? *wink wink nudge nudge*

And we’ve lost another legend. Singer/dancer/actress Lena Horne passed away yesterday at the age of 92.

It’s a gray, rainy day here. But no storms at the moment which is good. Oh great. The Weather Channel people just said we could have tornadoes tonight. No! Absolutely not! I refuse!

Anyway.

Tonight on TV, we have new episodes of Chuck, DWTS, and Castle.

Reading: Still reading Good Omens. It’s LONG. *g*
