It’s always an exciting morning when I get to wake up and smell the egos brewing of a new list of nominees for any award show. But when it comes to television, because there’s been a certain amount of personal investment that I’ve made in some of these shows, it’s nice to see some of them recognized. But isn’t it funny how award shows always recognize people that are already famous and successful? It’d be awesome if there was an award show for people that nobody knew. Oh yea, I forgot, The Tonys! Fabulous! I’m especially pleased that the remarkable Sally Field get nominated for her role in Brothers & Sisters, my favorite show that nobody I know watches. (Rachel Griffiths from this show also got a nod, but the whole cast is stunning.) Grey’s Anatomy got a bunch of big ones, including supporting actor nods for George, Izzy, Christine, and Dr. Bailey.

I just wanted to drop you a note and say hello. I’ve heard so much about you for so long from so many people that honestly, I’ve been a little reluctant to get to know you. But I have to say that I’m so glad we had the opportunity to hang out together this past weekend. I had a really great time. It’s not very often that you meet someone and then you try to completely rearrange your schedule around them. I don’t want to sound too gooey, but even when we’re not together, I can’t stop thinking about you. You know what I mean? Have you ever had that feeling? I kinda feel like I did in junior high when I experienced my first crush. Not that I have a crush on you, I’m just saying that I feel a bit giddy…a bit silly…maybe a bit dumb for liking someone so out of my league.
