tv woman crush
Tiffani-Amber Thiessen's baby news reminds me of my all-time TV crushes.

I'm 27 and she's Ginnifer Goodwin. Margene Henrickson is the third wife on Big Love, and although she is the youngest and newest to the polygamous lifestyle, Marge may be the most understanding. In addition to being the most sexually adventurous of the wives, she seems like she's most willing to sacrifice for the sake of the family (e.g. the gambling deal and her endorsement of another wife). Finally, she is not afraid of romantic rivals, even if they are sister-wives. Read: Polygamists Give "Big Love" Mixed Reviews

It's dawned on me that I have a type: brunettes with big hearts, soft features and a willingness to change their minds (or start a love triangle) if things aren't going their way. It's my cross, I'll bear it. Thanks a lot, television. I guess I should be glad that I never became a fan of Melrose Place
