captainsblogAm I the only one who's getting Nurse Jackie episodes a week before their scheduled airdate? TWoP is through its "weecap" of S1E5, which supposedly aired Monday. But I've seen episode 6, complete with an old friend from Pushing Daisies along for the trip.
If this is unauthorized cabling, shhhhh. Be vewwy vewwy qwiet.

Our church owns the house next door to the sanctuary. Clergy get the choice of living there gratis, or picking their own residence and getting a housing allowance. For most of the past decade, we've had older (way older)(ancient)(i.e., still older than I am) ministers who chose Column B, and the trustees rented the place out. Our new team includes a youngun, however, so we had to spruce up the old dump over the past few months.
Weekly updates told us about the progress, but only the church newsletter contained this odd Timbit about the previous tenants:
What Came Out Of The Laundry Chute?
The parsonage has a laundry chute that goes from the upstairs bath-room to the basement. When we started working on the house, we found that the chute was clogged. It took several people to clear the blockage. Here’s what came out:
-1 yard shovel (long handle)
-8-10 items of clothing including towels and underwear
-“Swiffer” floor sweeper
-2 hockey sticks (one signed)
-Fire extinguisher
- 2-15-lb. dumbbells
One of the dumbbells hit Mike Roberts in the arm, leaving him with a nasty black and blue bruise!
Bad timing, that. Mike and his wife have an armload of little kids, and Amy chose the end of the school year to have some overdue surgery done on her knee and she's been hobbling around in a soft cast for most of the past month.
----
I'm off for a round of errands and whatnots before le deluge begins tomorrow. Another of my all-day lectures to a room full of lawyers downtown, possibly seeing Emily at the Albright-Knox tomorrow night, a rainsoaked lawn needing mowing over the weekend, and then (at last count) five different appearances in four different courts in three different cities next week. One of them may be adjourned indefinitely, since one of the parties to it just had quintuple bypass surgery last week.
At least he didn't get hit with a dumbbell. Or have Jackie mixing the drinks.
