At least you’re leaving Ryan in good hands, right? I mean HELL, I imagine if Ryan dared to try to take you for anything in divorce court, the judge would take one look at Iman and say, “Dude, she left you with THIS, and you want MORE? Case dismissed.”

I totally plan for any potential Cusack destiny to override marital vows. When I was with Daron, even he agreed to step aside In Case of Cusack, “Because clearly that’s just something that’s meant to be, and only an asshole would stand in the way of it.” And you wonder why we’re still best friends. . .

Ah yes, to know Lloyd Dobbler is to love him. Just so you know that special pass doesn’t go away once you are married. If David Bowie ever comes a knockin’ Ryan knows I’m leaving him with Iman. And if Tom Skerritt circa 1983 shows up…well I’m kinda not like the other girls…

Ooh, I’m gonna say it’s the accent, plus the raised eyebrow, plus the brilliance. You’re one’a THOSE women, gettin’ talked out of her knickers and wedding vows by a seductive genius. . .

Whereas my romantic ideal is still Lloyd Dobler from “Say Anything”: cute, funny, physical, musical, trembling after our first time, and not certain about a lot in this uncertain world, but goddamned sure about one thing: ME.

(But I bet Alan’s a lot better at pickin’ the wine with dinner. . .)

I’ve always thought John Cusack was cute, and Alec Baldwin has grown on me over the last couple of years. But to be totally truthful . . . . Alan Rickman has just got that somethin’ somethin’ I’d remotely trade my husband in for.

I admit it, I’m a sucker for Hilariously Funny every time, CG. Mike and I just had a convo wherein one of his coworkers criticized another for not being “remotely interesting,” and I defended the accused on the mere basis of the fact that while he was no Rhodes Scholar, he was a Guaranteed Good Time — and face it, who would you rather be trapped in an elevator with for who-knows-how-long?

“Hell,” I said, “I’ll take funny over depth ANY day of the week!”

To which Mike replied, “Obviously. You’re with ME, aren’tcha, baby?!”

My absolute favorite line of this post has to be Mike’s response to Alec Baldwin baring his soul to a reporter and your rhetorical question of who, in Hollywood, does that.

“Wow. No one?”

I imagine Alex Trebek weighing in with his quiet murmur, “I’m sorry, Mike. The answer was “Who is Mike Wallace. Control of the board goes to Tracy…”

p.s. I also enjoyed the fact that you could overlook the age difference and the fact that “… he’s kinda heavy.” That’s true infatuation.

I think I was just too much all about the “Dude, I house-sat for Tim Leary and he totally bogarted his weed” story, if only because the Leary experience lasted about a week and the Cusack experience one (intense, electrifying, strings-section-infused) minute.

And I stayed with you in Lawrence on the way back! And later totally fought off that friend of yours in St. Louis, because you guys had once done it, and while I’d had your sloppy seconds in the past, apparently he was the unlucky guy with whom that little diversion became *distasteful.*

Eric and I have our 5th Anniversary this May. He read your blog and is already making lots of “O, I’ll have wood for ya baby” comments.

Funny, I remember you going out to Hollywood for the premiere, but you never told me the Cusack story. LOVE it. He is such a cutie.
