I like Wonderfalls much more too. The whimsy is what worked for me.

I like romantic comedies, and I like heartbreaking realities too. But I need a break from both or else I go crazy.

Also, let's talk about how cute the Baby hippo is!

I don't so much do romcom except in print. But then I'm now struggling to recall the last movie I saw....Charlie Wilson's War maybe? Last xmas?

I love hippos. Baby ones are really cute. Though I have a fear of them after seeing what a dead one accomplished on a trail in Zambia. Whoa. But I still am bitter over the loss of my pink stuffed hippo my dad gave me when I was wee. I lost it coming back from Prague in '97. Dad's given me multiple little pink hippos since then as consolation, but I miss my wee pink hippo with matted fur and red yarn smile.

My favorite "romantic comedies" are either in black and white, written by Woody Allen (esp. Annie Hall and Manhattan) or have baseball involved (Bull Durham).

I can't think of one exception!

If Tom Hanks or Meg Ryan or Billy Crystal is in it, it will make me puke my guts out.

Oh! I thought of one! Anything with Hugh Grant! Even the crap like that one with Drew Barrymore and he's an ex-boy band guy. Wait, thought of another one; Say Anything.

I guess my "exceptions" aren't too difficult to obtain.

The whimsy is what worked for me.

Me too. But Pushing Daisies went too far for me.

If Tom Hanks or Meg Ryan or Billy Crystal is in it, it will make me puke my guts out.

When Harry Met Sally is top 5 for me. Charms the fuck out of me, every time.

I have to dress sans metal for the MRI. So, yoga pants, pull-on top, and I wonder if I have a sports bra with no fastenings or underwire.

If Tom Hanks or Meg Ryan or Billy Crystal is in it, it will make me puke my guts out.

Ah, java, you're breakin' my heart. When Harry Met Sally still holds a very fond spot in my heart and that's considering I completely abhor Meg Ryan. But she hadn't quite hit the saccharine levels of precious yet and I love Nora Ephron's script for that film.

Of course, it was also the movie that I saw on my first date with Lewis, so there could be that as well.

Oh, and Harry Connick doing the soundtrack. Okay, I'll stop now.

Never did like Tom Hanks as a rom com lead though. HATED him in that horrible remake of The Shop Around the Corner-- what was it? You've Got Mail? BLEARGH.

Still-- he's a space geek. That wins him points back.

Dagnabbit, I forgot to put in the cinnamon! And the pan is still hot, but I had to wrap it up so I could go to bed. If this is a disaster, I am le screwed for the office potluck. Meh.

Tom Hanks is the ick. Meg Ryan became the ick. Billy Crystal retired from rom com in time. I'm a sucker for John Cusack and Hugh Grant, though.

My sister's best friend is getting married next summer. I feel very old and single.

I found the metal-free sports bra! Tops without metal are easy--it's the pants and the brassiere that's the problem.

My favorite "romantic comedies" are either in black and white, written by Woody Allen (esp. Annie Hall and Manhattan) or have baseball involved (Bull Durham).

One more reason that I love javachik -- Bull Durham is my numero uno favorite movie. Close second? Manhattan.

I adore When Harry Met Sally, and I think it's *because* it was pre-precious Meg Ryan, so she actually had chemistry with Billy Crystal, and it managed to be sweet and direct without making me want to gag.

(That's also why Innerspace was so good. Pre-precious Meg Ryan, hot-ass dimpled Dennis Quaid, and Martin Short at what was possibly the apex of his funniness. ["I'm POSSESSED!!!"])

Oh, and Harry Connick doing the soundtrack.

And then there's that, too. Best. soundtrack. EVAH.

Never did like Tom Hanks as a rom com lead though. HATED him in that horrible remake of The Shop Around the Corner-- what was it? You've Got Mail? BLEARGH.

It's because he was all puffy. Seriously. The puffiness ruined Vince Vaughn, too. (See also, Dan Akroyd, John Travolta.)

Yay wireless?

Kitten is crackers tonight. And I think he's exceeded Devi's weight though his fur is so sleek, he doesn't look it. He's nearly doubled his weight since I got him. Loki's growing up!

(That's also why Innerspace was so good. Pre-precious Meg Ryan, hot-ass dimpled Dennis Quaid, and Martin Short at what was possibly the apex of his funniness. ["I'm POSSESSED!!!"])

OMG, Innerspace! And Robert Picardo as The Cowboy! "You like Outlaw Josey Vales?"
