Just had to post this

Busy getting the house tidy as we're having friends over for dinner later.

Yesterday the hubby and I drove down to Laguna Seca raceway to watch some motor racing (yay for military...got in for free!). It was really fun...not to hot thanks to the onshore breeze, and we did one of the listed "Things to do before you die" things....sit at the Corkscrew (probably the most thrilling 2 corners in motor racing...a sudden turn and steep downhill which corkscrews around). Anyhow, we're wandering around the paddock, and I see one driver that kind of looked familar, but not enough that I could say that's so-and-so. Later as I'm looking through the program I see his face again...it was actor Patrick Dempsey. I don't watch "Grey's Anatomy" and have really only just seen pictures of him about, so I'm not a fan...but still cool. Don't know if/where he finished in the race, as I hadn't taken note of his number at that point...except he didn't win or place.

Speaking of cool (rather or not)....weather WTF with being 100F AGAIN today here? It's frelling May!

I like Patrick Dempsey. I actually don't care for McDreamy, but I loved him on "The Practice" with James Spader, when he played Paul the killer dentist. The scene in the treehouse, when he's telling Alan the truth, is one of the greatest scenes of acting in a series. The quiet, calm conversation and the horror on Alan's face. Utterly brilliant scene.

Heheheh about the weather. It's stupidly hot down here, too. Bah.

You see, I've never seen that either. I like the sound of a killer dentist, though. *g*
