Stuck. Here's a Link.

It's 11 minutes past 11 right now, and I've got the perfect tonic to the Teachers Tournament on Jeopardy! (I saw the first game and the only use I got out of it was finding out that there'll be an American Experience documentary on Bill Clinton on PBS next week. Finally. Took them long enough to get to the decade I grew up in): Episodes of Jeopardy! from 2005, Tivo'd off of Game Show Network. They run them every night during the week at 11, and 6 a.m. every Saturday and Sunday. I've got seven episodes stacked up and I can probably roll through five of them before I head to my room for the night.

Yet, I finished Buffalo West Wing by Julie Hyzy this afternoon and immediately started Affairs of Steak, the latest in Hyzy's White House Chef Mystery series. The bad news is that it looks like the next one will come out next year (Unless she wrote a Christmas-themed one, which would be nice so I don't have to wait as long). The good news is that I'm only on page 42 and have 235 more pages to savor.

I really really want to continue reading it, but then I also have those Jeopardy! episodes I really want to watch. I did enough research tonight, searching for a few other people who were part of the Airport movies, so I can take the rest of this time to do what I want. So now it's a competition.

While I wait for that indecision to sort itself out, over at Bloggerati, G posted the interview questions that I answered and sent back. My guest post, which I sent with my interview answers, will be up tomorrow.

And the winner is Jeopardy!. I can blaze through 60-70 pages before I go to bed, so both work out for me tonight.

  2. I saw the advert for American Experience. I have it set to DVR. That's your decade when you grew up. You're so wonderfully young and have so much to look forward to.

    Love,

  3. I like that most of my childhood was spent with the Clinton Administration in the White House. Must be one reason I stay hopeful.

    1. Oh sweetie, I hate Bill Clinton. But it's o.k. You were a child then, and some day, perhaps, you'll understand my hatred. Favorite Young Man was born in 1980, and he loves Bill Clinton, too. I loved Ronald Reagan. I love Barack Obama. Clinton drove me insane. W. drove me insane. That's why I'm still nuts.

      Love,
      Janie
