Yumm!<BR/><BR/>JT is the "it boy" of 2006 for sure. He came back with a vengence and proved he's no one album wonder.

Let's get it out there in the world and people will catch on.<BR/><BR/>Guy I heat right now<BR/>-Johnny Knoxville (I heat him so much it's not even funny)<BR/><BR/>-Dermot Mulroney (So hot..hello Wedding Date!)<BR/><BR/>-Justin Timberlake (Can't resist a singer/dancer combo, and I love his preppy wigger style.)<BR/><BR/>The Dane Cook special is hilarious. I love him and and for a long time. He's a hot comedian and is really physical with his comedy. The crying thing is so funny i almost peed my pants because I have totally looked in the mirror when crying.<BR/><BR/>It's funny because it's true:)Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08644793558130365140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20403949.post-1168499513747661182007-01-10T23:11:00.000-08:002007-01-10T23:11:00.000-08:00I am so glad Erik has told his blog world what he ...I am so glad Erik has told his blog world what he has been going through this past year. It is time. I just want everyone to know that Erik is truly my hero. I've always admired my son and loved him deeply, but the way he has handled this family crisis is beyond anything a parent could imagine possible. <BR/><BR/>He dealt with his own pain with incredible courage, he made up his mind to learn from my mistakes and to take something positive out of something terribly painful, he offered brutal honesty when it was needed and managed to offerloving support--even when he was angry. This is a man who values family above all else, who grieves deeply when there is a loss like this and people he loves are hurting, and who hangs in there and fights for the redefined family that can emerge through love, healing and growth. <BR/><BR/>As Erik's tears show, there is still grieving to be done. We are all still grieving, but we are also still growing. It is a difficult but amazingly life-affirming process that will someday be beautifully captured in Erik's writing. I have no doubt about that.<BR/><BR/>Erik could use that big giant hug--I know his close friends have been there for him through this and I'm very grateful for that.<BR/><BR/>Erik, I want to thank you for everything you have done for both me and your stepdad. You are a beautiful human being, and I love you very much.<BR/>PAMAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20403949.post-1168492079620944812007-01-10T21:07:00.000-08:002007-01-10T21:07:00.000-08:00thanks for the love, Lanie!

I...I remember Coco and she was a sweet little pup. It's so hard to let people and pets go. There's an attachement to them that just doesn't just go away when they pass away or are "lost." (not sure how you want me to phrase it.)<BR/>You gave Coco a great life, and she gave you one right back. it's ok to grieve that, and to grieve the other thing too. Break ups are the worst, whether is being forced to break up because the other person or pet dies or things just arent what they used to be. <BR/><BR/>If you need a pick me up, check out Dane Cooks comedy special "vicious circle?" I heat him, he's awesome. It's the best, and theres this whole part he does about crying alone, and how sometimes you look in the mirror when you're crying..it's great and will defin. make you laugh out loud.<BR/><BR/>I love you Broomhilda, chin up xoGinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08644793558130365140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20403949.post-1168462305680585032007-01-10T12:51:00.000-08:002007-01-10T12:51:00.000-08:00Coco is your spirit animal guide now, that is if y...Coco is your spirit animal guide now, that is if you belive in that sort of thing, like at the end of Jedi when Luke looks off across the Ewok TreeHouse and sees Obi, Anakin and Yoda all chilling up in the trees drinking Ewok ale.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20403949.post-1168455667406892922007-01-10T11:01:00.000-08:002007-01-10T11:01:00.000-08:00again, that anonymous was me (erik)again, that anonymous was me (erik)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20403949.post-1168455605197417522007-01-10T11:00:00.000-08:002007-01-10T11:00:00.000-08:00geeeeeeeeeeeez, Eleanor, i didn't cry for THREE ho...geeeeeeeeeeeez, Eleanor, i didn't cry for THREE hours, i said i cried for ONE hour. the implication that i cried for three hours makes me sound crazy. thanks a lot.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20403949.post-1168455405408768392007-01-10T10:56:00.000-08:002007-01-10T10:56:00.000-08:00it totally makes sense to cry for 3 hours. i bet ...it totally makes sense to cry for 3 hours. i bet coco misses you too, even if she's in doggy heaven.<BR/><BR/>hugs, eleanorAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20403949.post-1168451487196041422007-01-10T09:51:00.001-08:002007-01-10T09:51:00.001-08:00that comment above was me, erik(obviously)that comment above was me, erik<BR/><BR/>(obviously)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20403949.post-1168451468059175092007-01-10T09:51:00.000-08:002007-01-10T09:51:00.000-08:00thanks doug! woke up this morning feeling much bet...thanks doug! woke up this morning feeling much better. always good to have a good cry. <BR/><BR/>(and am i the only one who can't sign into my blogger "identity" anymore, ever since yesterday?)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20403949.post-1168443993844347062007-01-10T07:46:00.000-08:002007-01-10T07:46:00.000-08:00*big giant hug**big giant hug*Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
