My satellite provider chose to air college football last night! I don’t know if Blue was on later or night – I’m in the sack by 10.

Can anyone tell me what happened on the show?

I could just wait until next week, but I was **so** looking forward to the new Blue, and I’m curious, and anxious, and a bit ticked at DirecTV.

Yikes. That was supposed to be “later or not”. Sheesh.

Premiere isn’t until the 9th. So you didn’t miss it. 🙂
