I like CASTLE too

I wouldn't even think of watching something else.  In fact, we will be watching it tonight.

But can't you record more than one thing at a time?  DR Ginny doesn't have a PVR/DVR I don't think. So she can only watch one!

Plus since you're watching it tonight you didn't actually watch it yesterday :)

Still proofing after all these years.  Going very slowly and methodically.  Finding only a few em dash things and only a handful of bad across-the-page hyphens, all easy to fix.  However, amusingly, I thankfully caught a whopper of a mistake in the very first paragraph of the prologue.  It just goes to show that you can have three sets of eager eyes proofing (not including mine own) and all sets of eyes somehow missed this huge whopper of an error.  In the paragraph I say it was 1993 and that I'd just pulled out from The Shores, where I'd been living since 1998.  How could everyone, including me, miss that over and over again.  It should have obviously said 1988.

Do you get someone else to read it again once you are done?  I'm glad you caught that last error. That would have actually been sort of confusing for readers (they wouldn't have known if you meant 1988, or 78 or what).

I'm going to go watch the winter finale of Glee now.  And read some more.

Time for me to head home.  I need to do some laundry while I watch TV.

Be back later!

LOL-Yes, I can record two things at once.  I meant if I had to choose between Castle & something else Castle would likely be the winner.  I have no interest in watching that other show.

Right, DR Jennifer, no DVR in our house.  I'd been watching SMASH on line, but decided last night to watch it instead of CASTLE.  I missed watching CASTLE with DH Richard.

Now I'm going to log out to watch BODY OF PROOF,  another of our favorites.

'night!

Jennifer this morning I finished reading the 3rd ebook in the Profiler series this morning.  By this afternoon the 4th one became available.  I'm glad I stayed with the series & really like the direction the books are taking.

I, for one, did not have pancakes today. Bummer.
