Comedy Comedy Comedy! Music Music Comedy! Movies, Comedy, Music! Dermot Mulroney. I love him. If someone said "physcially, who would be your prototype?" It would have to be Dermot Mulroney. Yep.I sat next to him at my favorite restaurant in NYC, Balthazar. My friend Tracie was there and I was a spastic freak who started blushing when I thought he was looking and asked for him when the waiter came over and asked what I wanted. I wanted him. Oy. Did I want him. How crazy is it to get 'giddy' over someone you don't know? More later.

Huge fan of In Treatment, "Grey's Anatomy" (not so much this season), "Mad Men," "Dexter," "Curb," "Dirt" (I'll be on this season!) and "30 Rock" "In Therapy." I'm addicted. Don't call me when the shows are on. I won't pick up. Seriously addicted. Is there a 12 Step program for this? If you get upset with me b/c I won't pick up, then I'm going to break up with you!

Love "Rescue Me," reruns of "Sex in The City", "The Daily Show," "The Chelsea Lately," "Six Degrees", "Weeds,""Oprah," The Discovery Network, The History Channel (love the dramatizations), FX, HBO. This past Sunday I was GLUED to my TV watching Discovery Health Network watching a special on a baby that was born with 2 heads (a parasitic twin) in Egypt and another baby born with an additional leg. After that it was onto 'Dr 90210 where I watched a stripper get bigger eggplants and a jappy guy get his nose fixed for the 4th time. His wife is pathetic, freaking out about about him going to South America checking out the Latin Women and trying to discover why they are all so gorgeous. She needs to eat. Ok.. new favorite..30 Rock. Hilarious! Tina Fey is brilliant! Alex Baldwin is still hot even though he's phat. Lewis Black's HBO special from D.C. was hysterical!
