Oh, Mr. Cronkite. The first non-family voice of my childhood, who calmly told me the news of the day, explained the horrors and the wonders of the world, and assured me by his measured and gentle tones, that all would be well, in the end. You, sir, were one of a kind, and you shall be missed. Rest in peace.
*sniffle*
Seems silly, but his news broadcasts really *were* a huge part of my childhood. The news was *always* on during dinner, and it was always Walter Cronkite, and he reminded me of a my dad a bit, and it just makes me...nostalgic, i guess, for those days.
Anyway. In other news - Cat is currently in Kansas City at the Tattoo Rendezvous, dispensing art and chatting up people. So if you're in the area, drop by! That leaves me and the Monstrous 'home alone' as it were, but we're just hanging out, watching tv and eating mac'n'cheese. :)
*miss you, mignon*
I'm working on my spnsummergen fic, and enjoying where it's taking me. Two more weeks until it's due! Two more weeks to Writercon!!
And in television news, i just this week watched the newest mini-season of Torchwood. ( Let me tell you what I thought...with spoilers! )
And that's the way it is in *my* world tonight. I'll probably toddle off to bed soon...in my woolly socks, as it's suddenly gotten *very* chilly here, for June in Misery.
*hugs you all*
*sorry if i disappeared for a moment - i thought i'd flubbed the cut tag. :)*
