Okay, so this really never happens. I’ve been sitting here for half an hour, and still have nothing really to say. How sad is that?

I’ve been knitting away on my shawl, and am getting through about 4 rows a night at this point … you know, the usual problem. The rows get longer all the time, so while being diligent, it’s moving slowly.

Of course, it’s also raining. It’s been raining since Sunday, and Chappy  hasn’t gotten out of the house in days. He hasn’t gotten to show off his snazzy new collar, or anything.

I can tell you that the weather 26 years ago was absolutely perfect May weather. That was the day our first dog, Muppy, died at five and a half. (Sniffle.)

Otherwise? Did you know Claudia’s taking donations for her annual MS Fundraising Bike Ride? The one that always has really fabulous prizes? Run right over there and make a donation!

Of course, NBC isn’t helping matters. They announced a partial schedule for the Fall … but Chuck isn’t on it. Which doesn’t mean that it has NOT been renewed. It just means they haven’t announced it. Speculation is that Warner Brothers–who produces the show–has it linked in negotiations with one of the pilots that NBC didn’t actually like … but that NBC does, in fact, want to renew Chuck. Assuming they can find room on their schedule, considering that they’ve only got 10 hours of programming to play with.

I tell you, this is driving me nuts. And, if you haven’t watched Chuck? You can see the Pilot (and some of the other Season 1 episodes) here at the wb.com. (Although, oddly, the episodes are sped up just a tiny bit, so the voices sound just a little faster and a little higher than they should–a little distracting, but hey!) You can watch the 10 most recent episodes of Season 2 at hulu.com.

And, the finale? The episode that they said really COULD be watched by someone who hadn’t watched the show before? And that really worked as a pilot for Season 3? So true. You could absolutely watch it without having prior knowledge. You should, in fact, because it was amazing.

Honestly. I am not the only person this uncertainty is driving nuts.
