Granny Squared? OR My Cheadle Heart Will Tell on Me

THERE I WAS, late last night, finally holding down the couch--a chore I had been looking forward to all day--all comfy-cozy in a mighty fine (<--if I don't say myself!-->) nest I had built out of my coveted Roseanne afghan (Oh, come on, if you don't already have one, you know you want one. *cautiously tighter-grips several granny squares, because who 'can' you trust?!* as it was time for my date with Jimmy Kimmel. I don't always watch his show, but I do think he's funny and, so, sometimes, heck, why not?


DON CHEADLE.
That's why not.
Or would that be "Not why"?
Gad, how this " tea" I'm same-time drinking
makes me daft. Dafter.

Nope, nope, and nope.
I don't do Don Cheadle.
I can't. I WON'T.
Never have. Never will.
And DON'T MAKE ME.

YEP, when it comes to movies, TV series, shorts, documentaries, or especially the late night talk show I wanted to watch, I

Don Juan
don't want to go to there
,
if Don is.

FIVE WORDS:
I don't need-le the Cheadle.

NO KIDDING, WHAT IS it about some people that, for no good reason, (Look out, Donny, this is gonna hurt.) you just can't stand them? Man, I've reread that last sentence about 60 times and it still doesn't sound grammarically right, never mind that I just shattered Mr. Cheadle. But if there's one thing I'm personally sure of, it's that I'm right about Don. He's just not

my cup of tea.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's probably a really nice guy. And yeah, I know what comes next: there are a zillion billion people who think he's the best actor on Earth. (With my luck, you're one of them.) Uh-huh, uh-huh. But you know what? It just doesn't matter to me. Plain and simple, I am just not a fan of him. A-and...um...I'M NOT ALONE. Yeah, put this in your Don Cheadle FYI pipe and smoke it: Jimmy Kimmel doesn't like Don Cheadle either. See Mr. Kimmel smiling in the above picture? Now that's acting!

AND NOT to call it the deal breaker or anything, but far too many times,

Don
reminds me of

an upside down chin face.

Do you see it, or is it just me?
If you don't see it, be kind:
HUMOUR ME.
All that "cough medicine" I had to put in my tea today
seemed to have taken its firmest hold
right about the time I started putting
this goofball entry together.


[BACK TO ME WRAPPED IN
ROSEANNE SWADDLING CLOTHES ON THE SOFA]

"No-o-ow what am I going to watch?" I whined asked. As the hands of the clock were only too happy to let me know that Jimmy Kimmel Live was about to close up shop, the Best Jimmy Evah replied:


"?"
Seriously, Best Jimmy, if you gotta think about,
then we're in BIG trouble.

You put the kettle on
while I run out for
more "cough medicine"
-ly yours,
SparkleFarkle

Rest in peace, my Mollo and ZuZu.
