Dear McDreamy,
Thursday nights are just not the same without you. I know you're kinda busy in the US with your new season of Grey's and even people in the UK with Sky get to drool over you on Living, but for little old me with my wind up TV, I have to wait a whole year before I see you again. And to be honest, since you've gone and deserted me McDreamy, I have noticed that things have gone a bit downhill around here. Life just doesn't seem the same without your smouldering looks. The weather has gone terribly cold and there are lots of grey clouds, a bit like my moods since we no longer meet up on a Thursday. My daughter who often joined me when watching you has started waking up for two hours in the night every night. I think secretly she is pining for you too. There is an awful crisis in the global economy (do you think they are missing Grey's on Five too? and that's why they haven't been looking after our money?). My husband's soccer season has restarted so I have become a football widow again. They even put a football match on in Grey's slot on Channel Five last night - the cheek of it! My cooking has gone from mediocre to officially rubbish. My husband described my cottage pie last week as 'boingy'. You wouldn't ever call my cottage pie 'boingy' would you McDreamy?
Also, I can't find my two pairs of tweezers so I bought a new pair and now they have gone missing too. My eyebrows look like Freda Kahlo.
Would you still love me even if my 'brows remained unplucked for days on end? If you've been trying to contact me, you won't be able to get through because my mobile phone died on me. I phoned customer services to get a new one, spent an hour of my life doing it, they said they would send me an email with a reference number within 24 hours. Four days later, nothing. I haven't the energy or inclination to sit through another hour long phone call, so husband's old brick phone will have to do for now. So if you want to send a text, it should get through. Anyway I should go, food to cook, toilets to clean etc. I just wondered, do you think if I write to Channel Five and ask them to put Grey's back on, my life will return to normal?
Yours,
a confused take that fan, 30 (something)

Dear confused,
Thank you for making me laugh out loud, madly, while I sit alone in my home office trying to meet a deadline. I also have toilets to clean, but I'm saving the joy for the weekend.
Yours,

Hi Frances Penwill Cook - what a lovely fancy name. Glad I made you laugh out loud. As you can see/read, I am not laughing. Just pining...long sigh...ENjoy cleaning your toilets. Mine remain undone...
Hi confused, it is the fault of marriage. A creation of my very common name - Cook - and my (at the time) bf's name Penwill. Noone in France really understands it at all and often I just use the name Cook, because noone's heard of Penwill. Have a good pine (and maybe some wine).

I miss McDreamy too - and I still haven't seen the last episode of last season, so feel as if I have 'unfinished business' with him. Yes, a good dose of Grey's on a Thursday night could certainly cheer things up. And the brilliant Lost in Austen has finished too, which leaves us even more bereft of decent telly.....
Dear Confused, of course I would never call your shepherd's pie boingy, it's spongy at worst. I am currently tied up with filming with my new girlfriend (you may have heard of her, she's known as Millennium Housewife), but as soon as she unties me from this bedpost I shall of course resume filming Grey's with an episode dedicated just to you. Please continue to watch, your support means a lot to us. Yours in anticipating matrimony,
Mc Dreamy
Dear Confused
psstt...It's me... McDreamy, cunningly disguised as Thatgirl!
I would never call your cottage pie boingy... I am in desperate need of some home cooking but I can't tell you why as you don't know what's going on with my life yet and heaven forbid I should ruin it for you! I am planning on returning to Five soon to woo you with my dark gazes and meaningful stares. Perhaps then you and your little girl will get a decent nights sleep.
Until then.... I shall be content with the image of your unplucked eyebrows!
Yours, as ever.... Mc D xx
Well will ya look at that.... I can disguise myself as Millennium Housewife too!
He's bound to read it. Your blog must be finding fame and recognition from all corners of the globe and he will soon be writing similar letters to "A Confused Take That Fan", begging for new posts!
But did you tell the phone company who you were waiting on a call from?
did you not use the 'do you know who I am?' line either.
Come ON girl!
FPW - See now you have ruined the illusion by telling me you are just plain old Cook. Penwill Cook sounds like you should be a romantic novelist...
Nappy Valley - It's the last Tess this Sunday too, and that's hardly cheery!
MH - Ha ha. McDreamy, put Millennium Housewife down and come back to my loving arms...
That Girl - Ha ha x2 You and MH are perhaps twins separated at birth? If McDreamy is working his way through the blogging community I shall be very upset. I always though he was a one woman kinda guy...
Adventure Mother - Ooh yes, I can see it now. I find my fame and fortune, and then dump the McDreamy and move onto McSteamy...it'll never happen...
Tara - The phone man could hardly string a sentence together let alone know about my beloved McDreamy. Seriously...
Ladies ladies ladies, I have to burst you bubble, (espially yours, lovely CTTF) but I think you'll find McDreamy has been at the end of my bed on Thursday nights lately...
(Well, apaprt from last night when those pesky VP's had their debate on all over every TV channel. Grrr. Sorry, but politics was the last thing I wanted to watch.)
Anyway, he's all fresh and dewey-eyed and he's raring to gowith hisnew season of Mom/mum time. Plus, if truth be told, he's even better than he was more last season. Must be the good woman he has found!
When I'm done with him, I'll be sure to pass him onto you. He might just be a bit worn out by then...
Am I the only woman in the world who doesn't watch/get this ?
Alex. Alex all the way. That is his name, right. The smouldery one.
Poor you CTTF, it sounds grim. More gin?
Dear Confused, I would come into your loving arms if only MH would untie me. I have to say though that we are having lots of fun.
Yours in anticipation of rope burns,
Mc Dreamy
LMAO -- that was hysterical. And, sorry to report that he is keeping us very busy on Thursdays! *sigh* Can't wait for this week's episode -- it's going to be a good un!
ACTTF, 30, Don't give up hope - I'm sure he fancies you, especially with that rakish, devil-may-care monobrow you're sporting, sounds completely bewitching!
It's all in the eyebrows!
Mom/Mum - Put him down and give him back. I feel a little jealous that things are going so well with him...all dewy eyed...
Auntiegwen - don't you worry lovely. I feel like that about Ugly Betty...
Jaywalker - I'll take gin and Alex any day. He is the sort of guy I used to go for, gorgeous, arrogant, full of himself, hurt, wounded, the type I thought I could change and never did. Just ended sobbing over...
MH - Let the poor man go. Untie him now before he gets an injunction slapped on you
Crunchiemummy - Was it a good episode? Did McDreamy and Alex look good? Do you know, I am almost getting a bit soppy about George. What's wrong with me??
blogthatmama - Bewitching? Hmmm, I like it. Maybe the monobrow can stay...even though I have eventually found a pair of tweezers in one of my many wash bags.
David - They always say never trust a man whose eyebrows meet in the middle. Does the same apply to women?
