RIP ~BEA ARTHUR
Monday, April 27, 2009 I woke up with a crushing hang over yesterday. To make a bad morning worse I got the sad news that one of my most favorite actress/comediennes died peacefully in her sleep. I would have tipped a few back in her honor, but quite frankly I believe that I was still drunk when I read it.
First Estelle Getty now Bea. This only leaves 2 out of the 4 Golden Girls. I really loved that show. One reason was that it was on Friday's so I could stay up late enough to watch it. I would usually be baby sitting. My goal was to get the kids to bed before Golden Girls. That way I could eat their parent's food and enjoy my show in peace. When you think about it I was really ahead of my time for an 11 year old.
I always liked Bea's Character Dorothy. Dorothy always felt like a kindred spirit to me. She had to put up with her mother, an idiot, and a hoochie. And she always had the best one-liners.
Any how, I know this is sad news for a Monday morning. But lets be honest here Monday is the saddest day of the week, because you have 4 more days of work left. I suggest watching Golden Girls clips on Youtube as a way to make the day go by faster and an act of solidarity.
RIP Bea!
