I've had a crush on Henry Adams for 20 years.
How did TicketMaster manage to get this seeming monopoly?
My theory is pact with the devil.
I used to work with a guy named Ellery Queen.

OK, glad I'm not the only one. (My crush is the 1st Duke of Wellington. Which is probably not terribly surprising to anyone who knows me. OK, yes, I find some of his political views obnoxious, but he was all snarky and spicy-brained. And hot!)

Always Anti-fascist!
Oh, I bet I have, Susan. Not across centuries, probably.

That's the second time Ellery Queen has come up in my (internet-based) life today. hilarious.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
My Dead Celebrity Boyfriends include Young Michael Redgrave (oh so pretty and snarky in The Lady Vanishes), Youngish Jimmy Stewart (had I been Kate Hepburn's character in Philadelphia Story, I would've ditched Cary for him in a hot second), and Young/Youngish/hell, any age at all Humphrey Bogart.
Seriously Dead Celebrity Boyfriend (really, way deader than yours, Susan): John Donne. Totally the Prince of 17th-century England.

Mmm, Donne. I don't have a crush on him as such, but I have been known to put his words in my characters' mouths. Typically words from "To His Mistress Going to Bed" and "The Good Morrow."

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Can I have a Dead Celebrity Boy Friend? 'Cause I always wanted to be BFFs with Kit Marlowe so we could sit and snark together.
