| Wow, have you guys been busy!!! I am mostly through reading up... although, I still must find time for some of the indulgent extras!!!
First of all,
Congrats to Lee on 100%-- 
Bummer about being misinformed on the number of assignments  This driver's ed course seems quite intense... I don't what I had to do for driver's ed was nearly as demanding. I hope your homeschooling has a summer hiatus, at least.
I loved all the fangirl talk a few days past-- you guys cracked me up 
I find myself comparing any male character to George O'Malley (of course they don't usually measure up to our sweet, humble hero).
I'm also just about killing my husband. Sometimes he jokes about my obsession and sometimes he can be degrading about it... my fangirl-ness is a bit much for him... to ridiculous. But I say  to him most of the time about it. When he's being funny about it, it is funny b/c he knows his name is TR Knight, but his cute jealousy doesn't allow him to "remember" his name correctly...he'll say things like "that TZM guy" or "if you weren't so busy looking at/talking about "TKZ". Kinda funny. Now and then he'll slip and say his name right... I call him on it 
As a fangirl, I totally support Gwen's title suggestion for the next thread:

Sorry to all those who I haven't responded to PM's from-- summer will all kids home is busy... this past w/e we did a neighborhood camp out w/ the kids... it ended up being fun, but activities like these make me wish my 2 yr old was older!
Glad to hear your Mom is doing better these days, Gwen. And good for you for encouraging/pushing her out the door for some exercise. Caring for your parents can be tough work at times... especially when they are resistant to our care taking ideas-- keep pushing, though... the exercise will be of great benefit to you all. I wish I could have convinced my parents to make some serious habit changes, but by the time that I was old enough/mature enough to recognize and help in this, they were too sick (the age gap b/t us was 42 yrs!! yes, I was "unplanned" )
Gwen, you mentioned experiencing racism yourself. I worry about this for my youngest... he is So. Korean. He's young, so I haven't had to worry too much on him being affected by it yet, but I have encountered some myself, much that is harmless or not too offensive though... usually just comments about how cute he is, or children making the "squinty eyes" or people asking me how I "got a boy", assuming that he is Chinese. The most unfortunate thing about this is that he has very little connection to his heritage, as it is, and then to have people mistake him for being Chinese (not that there's anything wrong w/ being Chinese-- it's just not his heritage) makes his strongest connection to his heritage null and void to the way others see him. Anyway, it saddens me to think that he may encounter racism one day when he's older and doesn't have me with him.

The reading had luminaries such as Tony Shalhoub, Alfred Molina, and Marian Seldes. I hope they join.
Sorry, Pia, I guess your stuck in the middle. We have to appeal in a Steppenwolf production.
RIALTO CHATTER: T.R. Knight Officially Attached To 'TENOR', Tucci To Direct, Opening On Broadway February, 2010 |  Thanks so much for this info, Gwen! I'm so excited... although I have a ways to wait... that is good, considering me getting to NY will probably be a child care logistical mess, I am determined to go!
Thanks, too for the info on Parade 
Pia-- thanks for the heads up on the TV Guide article. I'm gonna run out and see if I can pick one up. Interesting how you said that the writer acknowledged Shonda's possible disenchantment with George... I am truly surprised to see that. Although, like Gwen, I believe it more ABC's wish to push George to the backburner and TR out the door. It still leaves us all wondering about Shonda's extent in the situation...

On a side note-- someone mentioned to me that there were 2 Katie/TR sightings tweeted-- both from June 27th-- it appears TR went to visit Katie in Georgia-- while she's filming "Five Killers".
Well, I'm off... the troops here are getting a little restless. Doesn't help that for the past month we've had a total of like 4 sunny days-- ugh! I guess climbing the walls is a better description than restless
