Man Candy Monday.

Happy Monday, friends!! Are you excited for a new week? Ready, at least? I haven’t decided yet which camp I fall in, but while I’m thinking about it, here’s one of my favorite guys. I first saw him in Ugly Betty and again in Six Feet Under, which we just finished over the weekend — whew! What an emotional roller coaster that was! Anyway, he’s incredibly swoon-worthy. He’s got mesmerizing eyes. And he just sort of captivates my soul…

“I’m drawn more to quality, and so if the quality is in television, I go in that direction. If it’s in film, I go in that direction. But I don’t limit myself or discriminate against any of the mediums.”

Have a Relaxing Weekend

Happy Labor Day weekend, friends!! I couldn’t be more excited about having THREE DAYS of freedom, although I am pretty sad about saying goodbye to summer! It’s been good to me!

Man Candy Monday.

Why, hello, friends! A very happy Monday to you! Can you believe it’s almost September? Ready to fall into fall?? I know, that’s pretty corny, but I couldn’t help it! Oh, wait, corny…like candy corn…wow, I’m certainly on a roll today, aren’t I? Anyway, today’s guy starred in our current binge-watching show. He’s pretty smooth. He seems really down-to-earth. And the characters he plays seem really, really intense…
