DR Jason, have you had a chance to get to Rita or The Woman in White?

Another periiously hot day here, and I was glad to be out of the car and into the restaurant for lunch quickly.

Maybe one day this week, the forecasters will get it right and we'll truly have cooler temperatures.

DR vixmom - The crow flies at midnight in the western sky.

Translation: Phone call has been made, just waiting for a response.

as David Cassidy, bk's close and personal co-star, once sang, "I think I love you"

I very much enjoyed ROME. Very interested in plot events, and characters are becoming more and more interesting.

And for those with an interest, Marc Antony has an outdoor wash with his servant scraping his back and arms, and we see this magnificent specimen of man in the altogether. After having seen several of the ladies of the company in their  beautiful bare magnificence, it's only right that the men get equal time.

DR Matthew: Sadly, I haven't. Things have been busy, busy for the last few days. I'll give them a listen when I have a chance to really give them some attention.

The point I was trying to make with DR Cillaliz last night about my surprise over EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND winning Best Comedy Series:

Only three times in the history of the Emmy has a long-running comedy show won Best Comedy Series in its last year of eligibility: THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW, THE MARY TYLER MOORE SHOW, and BARNEY MILLER.

GET SMART, TAXI, ALL IN THE FAMILY, MASH, CHEERS, SEINFELD, FRASIER, FRIENDS, SEX AND THE CITY: none of them were able to pull out a win during their final year on the air.

So, the odds were against RAYMOND last night, especially with the year's biggest hit DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES and last year's winner ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT as its major competition.

My DVD for the afternoon was THE SPITFIRE GRILL. Only got a little over an hour of it watched, but it's a lovely film and one I'm enjoying watching again after not seeing it for many years.

Over the weekend I decided to stop viewing my soap opera on a regular basis. The gay characters have been written off, and the other plots were getting maddeningly repetitive and irritating to watch. I will keep abreast of the stories by reading daily summaries on TVGUIDE.com, and if the gay characters return, I can resume watching via SoapNet.

This should now free up a lot for time for watching DVDs. (And catching up on recorded TV from the previous evening. Tonight, for example, I'll be recording 1 1/2 hours of shows I can't watch at their regular times due to conflicts with simultaneous broadcasts. I'm sure some of this will straighten itself out once I've sampled the new shows and decide which ones will become regular viewing.)

I read that the WB will be repeating Tuesday night's SUPERNATURAL episode on Sundays, so that will allow me to watch MY NAME IS EARL/THE OFFICE and HOUSE at 9 and catch up with SUPERNATURAL on Sunday.

Hmmm...technically, doesn't MY WORLD AND WELCOME TO IT also count here?  I'm pretty sure it was cancelled by the time it was nominated.

Good afternoon!

Well, laundry is finally done, and I actually got some business taken care of in the interim - e-mails and phone calls.  So, at least I was somewhat productive today.

OH!  And the landlord sent over the new handyman to check on the plants in the backyard.  He's from New Zealand, and he has beautiful blue eyes.

;D

...Alas, unlike Marc Antony's servant on "Rome", the handyman from New Zealand was not in the altogether.  Ah, well...

Sorry...  I'm still in the world of my personal "in-joke" after one of the phone calls I had this afternoon.  It was a good phone call, but amazingly silly.

But again...

Who cares?

Is it time for a margarita?  Hmm..

Well, on second thought, maybe just a hit to the head with a bottle of tequila is what I need right now.
