I was at the Menil Museum of Art on Saturday with older sister Cathy, her hubby Jay, and friends Jon and Brian when I found out via FB (on my trusty Droid - which I haven't quite figured out how to properly operate, by the way) that Dennis Hopper died.
Now, mind you...Gary Coleman had passed away on May 28th, followed by Dennis Hopper on May 29th. I made some kind of comment about deaths happening in 3s and how maybe Estelle Getty was next. Then I did the whole takey backey thing when I remembered that Estelle Getty had already passed on, so I naturally replaced her with Rue McClanahan because Lord knows Betty White will live forever. You are probably wondering why I had to go with a "Golden Girl". Yeah...no clue...call it instinct if you must call it anything at all.
I was perusing FB (in lieu of a smoke break since I don't smoke and I'm all about non-smokers having equal break time rights) just a few minutes ago and noticed my friend Rachel had updated her FB status to "not rue mcclanahan! someone pass me a piece of cheesecake, quick." This freaked me out - like maybe just maybe Rue died. So I looked her up on Wikipedia and sure enough...she did.
I think I may be slightly responsible by way of power of suggestion.
Lesson learned: Keep my big mouth shut next time two deaths happen in a row.
