Quotes: Eat Pray Love

“I have a history of making decisions very quickly about men. I have always fallen in love fast and without measuring risks. I have a tendency not only to see the best in everyone, but to assume that everyone is emotionally capable of reaching his highest potential. I have fallen in love more times than I care to count with the highest potential of a man, rather than with the man himself, and I have hung on to the relationship for a long time (sometimes far too long) waiting for the man to ascend to his own greatness. Many times in romance I have been a victim of my own optimism.”
Elizabeth Gilbert (Eat, Pray, Love)

Dazed and Confused

Hoping you are taking a bit of downtime now that the holidays are near (and you’re probably off work tomorrow.)  Take some time to have fun with friends and family tonight, make some cheese fondue and pop a classic DVD in…like Dazed and Confused.  Kevin Pickford (Shawn Andrews) should be enough to keep your attention for days!  He’s kept my attention since 1993.  Meow!

Carson Kressley gives us the skinny on what every man’s wardrobe should consist of.  Ladies, you may need to help your man out in this department, but after they learn the basics, they’ll do fine on their own. 

 
*  A great suit
 
*  A nice blue blazer
 
*  A couple of good button downs
 
*  A couple of sports shirts (this means a Polo or Izod, not a football jersey, boys.)
 
*  Three to four great fitting jeans
 
*   A brown belt
 
*  A black belt
 
*  A gym shoe, a leather loafer, black dress shoes, and brown dress shoes

Thirtysomething Reunion

abc_30_something_script_090823_ssh.jpg

Barely cognizant to the world this a.m. at 5:15, I grabbed the remote to turn on the news in an attempt to wake up and crawl out of bed.  I immediately heard the Thirtysomething theme song and sprang to life.  The cast from Thirtysomething is having a reunion tomorrow, on 08/26/2009, on Good Morning America!  Set your Tivo’s now. 

I adored Thirtysomething.  It represented everything I, as a 20-something, wanted to have as a 30-something when I got there.

It’s been more than 20 years since the hit television series “Thirtysomething” debuted on ABC in 1987, and the cast is coming together for a reunion Tuesday, Aug. 25 on “Good Morning America!” The series’ tagline was “real life is an acquired taste,” and the show focused on the trials and tribulations of a group of 30-something couples, friends and co-workers living in Philadelphia. Despite early criticism for its focus on the mundane aspects of everyday life, fans came to embrace the show’s portrayal of young adult issues and relationships. So what have the seven primary cast members been up to since the show went off the air in 1991?

It’s quit obvious from the pictures that Ken Olin has been up to …looking ridiculously sexy for the past 20 years.  The entire cast looks great, in fact.  Take a look:

abc_olin_090823_ssh.jpg 

Ken Olin…the dreamy Ken Olin!  He’s always been tops on my list.  I’ve compared every date I’ve ever had to Ken Olin, or shall I say, Michael Steadman.   They were big, impossible shoes to fill! 

Ken Olin (Michael Steadman): Michael Steadman and his wife Hope Steadman were the core couple of the series. Michael worked at an advertising agency with his friend Eliot Weston and was burdened by his responsibilities at home and at the office. In real life, Ken Olin is married to “thirtysomething” co-star Patricia Wettig, and both currently star on the ABC series “Brothers & Sisters.” Olin has also made a name for himself behind the camera, directing episodes of “Alias,” “The West Wing,” “Judging Amy” and “Brothers & Sisters.”

I’ll just say it…I never did like Hope Steadman.  Not because Mel Harris (who played Hope) wasn’t a great actress;  it’s just that I never thought she was good enough for Michael.  She was the competition, if you will.

Mel Harris (Hope Steadman): Married to Michael Steadman, Hope was conflicted over her decision to be stay-at-home mom. Another recurring theme on the show was Michael and Hope’s interfaith marriage.  He was Jewish and she was Christian. Hope’s best friend on the show was Ellyn Weston. Mel Harris is still a familiar face to TV viewers. She’s had roles on “The West Wing,” “Dawson’s Creek,” “House” and other series.

What Men Really Want

When TotalBeauty.com asked 200 men, ages 20-30, what body part first they notice first on a woman, the results weren’t overwhelmingly surprising. 

Breasts garnered the largest feed back with 34 percent of the vote.  Butts came in close with 30  percent of the vote.  Legs were close behind with 18 percent of the vote, and stomachs also garnered some interest with 10 percent.

Quote: Keeping It Hot

“I’ve found that the best ways to strengthen and sustain your relationship are to respect each other at all times, treat your partner the way that you want to be treated, and take time out for you relationship by planning moments where you and your partner can be alone with each other, and yes, this does require planning.  It’s really that simple.”  Lisa Rinna on the key to a successful relationship.
