Golden Girl

I'm on episode 3 of the Golden Girls tonight. If you know me, you know I LOVE this show. I own a season on DVD and I set my DVR to record every episode out there.
Today, Rue McClanahan passed away. You probably know her as Blanche Deveraux, the over-sexed, Southern belle of the show.
The thing I love about all the Golden Girls is that they never let their age get in the way of their fun.
We 20-somethings tend to dread the big 3-0. But the Golden Girls teach us that each year of our life (even into our 80s and beyond) can still be full of fun times with girlfriends, good food and sex!
Blanche was never shy about her "desires," I often call her the original Samantha Jones. In real life, Rue had 6 husbands (not all at once) and kept her acting career alive well into her 70s.
If you've never watched an episode, do yourself a favor and watch some of her best moments.
RIP Rue McClanahan, thank you for being a friend.
