The Tom Blog

[Filtered to Friends]

It's been a long, long time since I've posted. So much I don't really know where to start.

Things with Lucy are wonderful, as usual. We live together now, it's great. I've never been happier.

Work is great. I haven't ever seen the show this strong. Matt, Lucy, Darius and Andy are killing it. And Harriet and Sim are on top form too.

My family is all good. Mark got married last year, and I'm an uncle! Mason Thomas Jeter was born a couple of weeks ago:



Cute, right? Poor kid got the Jeter ears. I'm home for the holidays, and Lucy is with me. And this little guy is making everyone fall in love with him. Mark is so happy, and he's crazy about Mason. And Michelle is doing great and she's an amazing mom. I'm so happy for them all.

So that's my life, real quick. How is everyone else doing?

Happy birthday, Charlie!

Harry is awesome!

So is champagne. We have champagne, because Harry is awesome. Which is really cool. Harry is cool too. And funny. She sounds like Juliette Lewis, and it's really funny.

I might have had one too many glasses of the champagne.

But Harry's gonna win an Oscar! I mean, probably. She's amazing. She should win an Oscar, for sure.

And I shoudl probably not have any more champagne...

For all the support over the last few days.

Mark is great, he's got a broken arm and his knee is pretty messed up, but he's going to be fine. I'm in Germany with my parents, but the doctors say Mark will be released in the next few days.

Thanks, you guys.

Danny, congratulations, she's gorgeous. I'll be heading back to LA tomorrow for the show, and I'm going to get you something for Jordan and Becky.

I have to go the airport now - to pick up Mark's girlfriend. He never told us he had a girlfriend, and I feel bad because she could have been with us Friday night instead of watching on the news. Get this - she's from Pahrump. Mark met her when he was stationed at Nellis about a year ago. Her name's Michelle and he's telling Mom and Dad about her now. It sounds like Mark's pretty crazy about her. I'm really happy for him.

Lucy, I'm really sorry I shut you out on Friday. I was so messed up I couldn't talk to anyone, and I mostly yelled at Captain Doyle. I just didn't want to yell at you.

I miss you, and I wish you could be here with me.

I'll call you later tonight, when it's a little later over there. Can't wait to see you tomorrow.

Hawaii is beautiful. So is lucyluckyduck. I had the most amazing weekend and even though it's been over a week since we came back to LA I still haven't stopped wanting to go back there.

I've missed a lot of memes. Guess it's catch up time.

Your Friendship Style is Gregarious

You love being with people, and you find it easy to make friends. Hanging out with your friends gives you a real charge, and you tend to be busy every night of the week. You enjoy interesting conversations and shared activities with your friends. Your motto is: "The more the merrier" While you love your friends, you don't love it if they put demands on you. You don't think that friendship should be about obligation. You and an Empathetic Friend: Are get along best one on one. Your Empathetic Friend loves talking about your social circle but may feel left out when the whole gang is around. You and another Gregarious Friend: Are a perfect match. You've finally found a friend who's as outgoing and fun loving as you are. You and an Independent Friend: Are well suited for each other. You don't put too demands on your Independent Friend, and your Independent Friend finds you fascinating. You and a Philosophical Friend: Are pretty different. You're high energy. Your Philosophical Friend is more cautious. You'll have to meet in the middle and learn from one another.

Hey, you guys.

I know I haven't been posting lately but I've been reading all your entries and memes.

And nothing is really going on in my life that's unusual. I work, I spend time with Lucy, I work some more. And it's been great. I could post more often but it'd be how happy I am over and over again and you'd all gettired of that pretty quickly.

See, I'm really very boring and have nothing interesting to say... maybe getting a blog was a bad idea, everyone can see now how dull I really am.

( Meme... )

Uh, so yeah... You may have seen the news.

Danny and Jordan, sorry to steal your news cycle.

Yes, Lucy (lucyluckyduck) and I are together. There are some really nice pictures of us having coffee all over the papers and news stations.

We've been seeing each other for a few weeks, it's early days, but we're both happy. Thanks to everyone who has wished us good luck.

I hate all the chaos and the attention and the people camped outside my apartment...

But you know what? It's totally worth it.

Luce, I'm so sorry for all of this. It'll calm down soon, I'm never big news for very long.

[Filtered to Friends]

I've been really quiet but it's because I haven't wanted to sicken you all with ramblings about how happy I am. Because I am so very happy.

I'm sorry to you guys who aren't having such a good time, though. I won't go on about how good things are for me, it'd be insensitive. I'll just warn you to stay away from Strindberg. It'll pass.

If you need anything you can give me a call. I cheer people up professionally. Or try to, anyway.

Your Heart is Blue and Orange

Your heart is bright and brilliant. You are knowledgeable, wise, and confident. You bring dynamism and sparkle to relationships. You know how to keep your partner hanging on your every word.

What The Holidays Mean to You

For you, the holidays are about emotional connections and bonds. You are happiest being around those you love. You celebrate the holidays in an over the top style. If something is cute, you'll buy it. People end up with a lot of gifts from you - and your house is like a holiday wonderland, full of decorations. During the holidays, you feel like having fun. Tradition is not important to you... having a blast with your friends is. You think the holidays should be comforting and relaxing. You don't like the holiday rush... you just like the simple pleasure of the holidays. Your favorite holiday memories strongly evoke your senses. You are vividly aware of all the tastes, smells, and sounds of the holidays.

I do not own one single holiday decoration myself, but it does sound like my mom's house at Christmas time.

You Are a Gingerbread Cookie

You are an organized, responsible person. You value success, and you're likely to get an early start on the day. You are good with both planning and numbers. You have ambitious life goals, and you're well on your way to achieving them.

Huh.

Not sure if I'll be able to be on tomorrow, but wanted to wish you all the best. We just got to talk to Mark, he's doing well and got the gifts we sent him. Not everyone can contact home tomorrow, and Mark called us today so the guys with kids could call tomorrow.

Thanks for the brownies, Nell. My parents are really impressed.

Hope you all have a good day tomorrow.

So I'm off home to Ohio today. Going to be there for about a week and a half, then I'm off to Mexico with Simon.

I'll be around, trying not to go too insane. Same as Lucy.

[Filtered to Friends, Filtered from Lucy]

I'm doing better. Simon's lost interest ro backed down.

Either way I've decided to ask her out after the holidays, when we all get back. I really like her.

But for now, need to concentrate all my energy on staying sane while at home with my parents. Cos I'm gonna need it...

I'm this close to breaking out my collected works of Strindberg.

Why do I keep doing this to myself?

I'm doing okay, back in LA and the warmth. I sometimes forget there's a whole season where it's cold until I go home.

Anyway, back to the usual, but one show left before we break. Spending a week or two here in LA before I go back to the folks' for Christmas.

I won't be spending them with Simon though. I'm in the market for a new best friend. Any takers?

Happy Thanksgiving guys.

I'm surviving, just about. Been paraded all around my parents friends. Every conversation is the same, and goes something like this:

Parents Friend(PF): Tommy, you haven't changed a bit!
(This is not a good thing, if you'd seen my high school yearbook pictures, you'd understand.)
Me: Well, thanks...
PF: Are you still on TV?
Me: Yeah, every Friday
PF: Thats great, we don't watch, but we should, we say it every week.
Me: *smiles politely*
PF: Have you heard from Mark?

.....

Yeah, it could be worse. Mom's cooking now and I snuck online to post this. Have a good day you all, I'm going to see if she'll let me help her.

Hey guys. Been kinda busy, with the show and all, so haven't updated. It was fun meeting you all.

I'm posting quickly, I've got a plane to catch. Heading back to thew folks in Ohio for Thanksgiving since we get the week off.

There really are no words for how much I'm looking forward to this. Access could be spotty, but they do have broadband now at least. That took a lot of convincing, let me tell you.

So yeah, wish me luck, and if I don't get back on here before the weekend, have a great Thanksgiving, everyone.

( some memes )

You know its a relaxed week when one of your bosses challenges the other to a fight in the middle of a workday.

Well, suppose if it was serious it would have made it an interesting week.

So guys, you going to tell us who won? The whole studio's speculating.

And I bet $20 on Matt.

you are mediumorchid #BA55D3

Your dominant hues are red and blue. You're confident and like showing people new ideas. You play well with others and can be very influential if you want to be. Your saturation level is medium - You're not the most decisive go-getter, but you can get a job done when it's required of you. You probably don't think the world can change for you and don't want to spend too much effort trying to force it. Your outlook on life is brighter than most people's. You like the idea of influencing things for the better and find hope in situations where others might give up. You're not exactly a bouncy sunshine but things in your world generally look up.
