06/15/06 rescue me, baby


I am in love with Denis Leary. It took a while--he had to grow on me. I thought he was a major asshole back in the "I'm an Asshole" day, but I really dug him in "The Suicide Kings" (1997) and now I find him irresistible as a philandering, boozing, lying, cheating, conniving yet haunted firefighter on his FX show Rescue Me. It's the only television show I watch. Period. And the more dysfunctional his character becomes the more I drool. One man demolition crew, careening out of control, leaving a trail of total wreckage and broken relationships in his wake? Oh, yeah, baby, so sexy. How sad is that?


But no matter, Denis has moved to the top of my list. What list, you ask? Come on, I know you have one. The "Honey, I love you, but if I ever have a shot at __________, I have to leave you" list. And Honey nods as he stares at the TV and pops another Bud because, really, who are we kidding here? Like it'll ever happen.

Anyhoo, here's the list I have shared with the GITB and he has approved it (this is the list of men I am officially allowed to have a fling with): (yeah, I know) drumroll please:


  • Denis (we already covered him).
  • Ray Liotta (I have no explanation. I just want to rip his clothes off).
  • Bruce Springsteen (have loved him since 1975. I should have been the mother of his children).
  • Andy Garcia
  • Jeremy Sisto (Brenda's psychotic brother on Six Feet Under)
  • That guy who played Furio on the Sopranos

PS--addendum: I forgot (I know, how COULD I?): Benecio Del Toro. YUM.

I have a similar approved fling list:

1. Lars Frederiksen. I don't know why but the face tattoos really work for me.

2. Karl Urban. The only way I'd kick him out of my bed was if I was going to f*ck him on the floor.

3. Ice Cube. I can't explain it. Maybe it's because he can look so fierce and gangsta, but then he smiles and I go all gooey.

There are more, but those are the Big Three at the moment.

Oh yea, I'm with you on Dennis. Smokin'!

bhd, now I am so curious about who IS on your list.

Trish--I do have to agree with you on Karl Urban,, but Ice Cube??? Dang, Girl!

eb--Jude looks too much like an adolescent boy to me--which is what a lot of my lesbian friends look like to me, so eureka. But not my type.

Antonio, oh, yes! And The Rock, yes. Also, I would like to have my way with Vin Diesel, 'cause I like 'em big and stupid too.

But Angelina? Waaaay too psychotic. She has those scary-ass crazy eyes like she would insert a razor blade into one of your body parts if you displeased her, and not in a fun way, either. She has bunny-boiler written all over her. She gets my vote for Queen of the Crazy (and not in a cute, fun way)Bitches of All Time.
