Oh, Bossy – you are hysterical! I really needed that this morning – it helped me recover from the fury that was directed at me when my 10 year old discovered that I had accidentally run some of his Pokemon cards through the washing machine. Thanks for the laugh, but keep your (and Stella’s) paws off MY husband.
Note to self: send Bossy list of psychotherapists used in the past.
BOSSY is a nut job. Love will do that to you. MAKE you Crazy! Bossy!! IT’s OK!! Even if you guys break up you’ll get a nice settlement. BUT FIRST!! Make sure you spawn a couple of children from him–it will make the settlement sooo much sweeter.
I’m going to watch the show tonight, and KNOW he is thinking about you! WIll you be in the wings? Will we get a gratuitous candid shot of you?
After the show I’ll try not to be jealous as I know you will be celebrating in his arms. OH YOU Lucky GAL!
I must ask you to cease and desist the stalking of my husband. John and I were just laughing that you didn’t even SPELL HIS NAME RIGHT on the youtube website. Why?
Because you’re not his wife, that’s why.
We’re going to go have sex now. Over and over and over. I’ll send you the VHS tape of it.
Now you’ve got me trying to balance stuff on our dog’s head. Is there a more productive way to spend the morning? Sadly, it’s a no-go: I think her skull’s too bumpy.
OMG – that’s fabulous! I used to live in the same neighborhood where they filmed High Fidelity. I remember spending hours in my living room window watching them film on the street outside. It was A W E S O M E. Come to Chicago and I’ll give you the High Fidelity tour!
it’s just not fair. you’re brilliant AND you’re married to john cusack. sigh.
ps: that’s a fantastic idea about the hats. i’ve been pretending no one can notice the 4 inches of roots i’m currently sporting, but i think your method may be a touch better.
I was stalking him before you, I swear!! But, I will bow out, b/c really, who could ever compete with that?! He is awesome, but you totally rock, Bossy!
Yah ha ha ha!!! Dude! That was awesome. “High Fidelity” indeed…
Also I love your dog sacrificing its head for the sake of your obsession- ahem- I mean, art.
🙂 Isn’t ‘your husband’ dreamy?
Bossy you are ingenious! I loved it-can you do one w/me & husband George Clooney too?! All that talk about him not ever getting married is a publicity stunt and I have the ring to prove it.
I love how much you “sound” like Ileen.
Your instinct that all friends of Ileen would want to see this was correct. She is most certainly laughing her butt off just as you describe her. Hugs to sweet J for me, K?
I have mostly been avoiding the world of blogs since NBC/Universal decided I was Satan for speaking out about free content on the internet that huge conglomerates make money off of, and writers don’t.
And then the fight got bigger. Cut to me walking a picket line, and trust me Bossy, I don’t have the kind of footwear required for this, but there I am.
So only you and YOUR Grrl Genius could have sucked me into the blogsphere, and it was worth it!
If I see your husband on the picket line, I’ll be sure to tell him about all the cute dog tricks you are doing back home with your ye olde antique VHS tapes you inherited from Gramma.
You’re right, our mutual friend would have loved it.
Bossy, if ever you become famous you shall need an entourage. I am applying for the position of Guru of Bossy’s Skincare. You’ll need to look your best on the talk shows.
As soon as I wipe up the gingerale I spit out when I saw the John/Dog pic I’m going to think of some background music to my stalker love note to my husband Jimmy Smits.
SA has those same feelings about Dana Delany, but is much less accompished with Photoshop. Oh, and far too lazy to be a stalker. That takes an amazing time commitment, I understand. In some future post I will add your video to amuse my handful of faithful that are unaware of the tour-de-force that is Bossy.
Bossy! Love, love, love this – so do you know where the Thompson Twins got their name? This is weird geeky knowledge – let me place More fingerprints on the lenses of my bifocals.
I watched your husband last night and I thought he was cool until he walked on stage and did that wierd theater geek thing where he pretended to wave his hat down in rolls to the audience. What was that about?
Dang, you’re gettin’ fancy with the photoshop these days! — er. What I MEAN is, you and John are SO HOT together. He even looks good with stella. John Cusack was not in my dream about you, but he should have been.
Bossy must have LOTS of extra time on her hands to take all those photos and doctor ’em up and set the timing to the music JUST RIGHT – gives her plenty of time to think about her “Husband”. Heeee!!
Well done in a mildly-disturbing, “perhaps she really IS a stalker?” sort of way…
OMG, that was soo funny!
I love your husband. Jealous of the obvious love he has for you as well;)
Thanks for the laugh…I can’t remember the last time I heard that song!
Also, are you familiar with BusyDad? I scrolled your comments to see if he was here…didn’t see him. He actually got his butt kicked by John Cusack when he was younger…said they had the same kick boxing coach…funny story.
I’m way late for the party, kicking through the empties and smelling the stale cigarette smoke in the air. And that makes this thing even funnier. Ish. When are you going to get your own show? Wait. You already have one. Don’t listen to the babbling party-misser. I’ll never stay away so long again.
The Domestic Goddess says
December 3, 2007 at 8:22 amHAHAHAHAHA!
Oh, that’s good.
I thought you meant your REAL HUSBAND. And then I was all, “Oh yeah. She’s a stalker.” And realized you were talking about John.
The Domestic Goddess says
December 3, 2007 at 8:25 amWait, I’m gonna channel the gossip sites for a moment:
FIRST! FIRST! I’M FIRST! HAHAHAHA!
Lara says
December 3, 2007 at 8:25 amOh, Bossy – you are hysterical!

Thanks for the laugh, but keep your (and Stella’s) paws off MY husband.
blackbird says
December 3, 2007 at 8:28 amPerhaps my husband George (Clooney) and I could meet you guys for a drink.
Avitable says
December 3, 2007 at 8:30 amWere those VHS tapes? VHS? Sigh.
Miss Britt says
December 3, 2007 at 8:40 amI love the way he looks at you. *le sigh*
Julianne says
December 3, 2007 at 8:49 amAmazing. I love it. I only wish I had the time to stalk as creatively as you do….
Donna from mid Michigan says

Mary Alice says
December 3, 2007 at 8:59 amoh Bossy…I am sure THIS will convince John to come Philly and ravish you. Your talents are so sexy…well,that.. and your hair.
Oh, The Joys says
December 3, 2007 at 8:59 amYou are so money, my friend.
Crystal D says
December 3, 2007 at 9:16 amHilarious as usually Bossy.
I love when you get stalkerish.
Mrs. Who says
December 3, 2007 at 9:24 amOh, Bossy, what a lucky, lucky girl you are. He even loves your dog. You can’t say that about a lot of guys!!
Teryn says
December 3, 2007 at 9:26 amWhy are you so awesome?
super des says
December 3, 2007 at 9:29 amwow, even the dog loves him!
That John is one lucky guy.
Alli ~Mrs. Fussypants says
December 3, 2007 at 9:31 amBrilliant!
Sing with me,
“She’s bringin’ stalker back!”

Junebug says
December 3, 2007 at 9:34 amThe dog shot was the funniest. 😀
Mrs. Cusack says
December 3, 2007 at 9:36 amI must ask you to cease and desist the stalking of my husband. John and I were just laughing that you didn’t even SPELL HIS NAME RIGHT on the youtube website. Why?
Because you’re not his wife, that’s why.
We’re going to go have sex now. Over and over and over. I’ll send you the VHS tape of it.
Prof. J. says
December 3, 2007 at 9:57 amHow could he possibly resist you? Or your beautiful puppy?
madmad says
December 3, 2007 at 9:57 amOK. You are the master. But you can do better (than him), definitely! Even with 229 day old hair.
The Mom Bomb says
December 3, 2007 at 10:00 amNow you’ve got me trying to balance stuff on our dog’s head. Is there a more productive way to spend the morning? Sadly, it’s a no-go: I think her skull’s too bumpy.
Momo Fali says
December 3, 2007 at 10:01 amHuh. That’s funny. Mark Wahlberg doesn’t know he’s my husband either.
Miranda says
December 3, 2007 at 10:02 amHe’s also on Tavis Smiley tonight and a couple of other shows over the next week.
All Adither says
December 3, 2007 at 10:03 amAh, young love.
Nap Warden says
December 3, 2007 at 10:08 amFrom one Photoshopper to another…Well done!
Marathon Mom says
December 3, 2007 at 10:13 amCan you do one of me and Matthew McConaughey?
Nilsa S. says
December 3, 2007 at 10:15 amOMG – that’s fabulous! I used to live in the same neighborhood where they filmed High Fidelity. I remember spending hours in my living room window watching them film on the street outside. It was A W E S O M E. Come to Chicago and I’ll give you the High Fidelity tour!
Mrs. G. says
December 3, 2007 at 10:16 amIt’s always a good day when Bossy makes a movie…girl, you look mahhvaallouss.
heart shaped hedges says
December 3, 2007 at 10:20 amYOu are so good! Loved it!!
pgoodness says
December 3, 2007 at 10:44 amYou are so cool! I love this.
moosh in indy. says
December 3, 2007 at 10:58 amI need one of those with Clive Owen for dark stormy lonely nights.
Moi says
December 3, 2007 at 11:04 amNicely done, Bossy. Do you want me to convert those to DVD for you? Then, they will last forever. Just like my life with MY husband, John Cusack.
Hilary says
December 3, 2007 at 11:10 amVery well done.. inspiring! Thanks for the laughs. 🙂
Alice says
December 3, 2007 at 11:10 amit’s just not fair. you’re brilliant AND you’re married to john cusack. sigh.
ps: that’s a fantastic idea about the hats. i’ve been pretending no one can notice the 4 inches of roots i’m currently sporting, but i think your method may be a touch better.
Grandma J says
December 3, 2007 at 11:13 amThat is so damn good! So good, in fact that I may just get me a big dog, change my religion (to whatever yours is), and move to Philly.
Howard says
December 3, 2007 at 11:18 amUhhh, what is John doing when he’s standing behind you in the picture. Naughty…
flutter says
December 3, 2007 at 11:19 amI want to join you in said stalking but I know how territorial Bossy gets with her man…
joeinvegas says
December 3, 2007 at 11:22 amAs usual, your video posts are brilliant. Good work on this one too.
But what does the guy you are living with now have to say about this topic?
Heather says
December 3, 2007 at 11:36 amWhat a hoot! Your dog must have a really flat head. Or did you use a staple gun?
Tina says
December 3, 2007 at 11:42 amHeelarious!!!!
Melanie at Beanpaste says
December 3, 2007 at 11:46 amOK, OK. I have been moved to de-lurk by the sheer, beautiful lunacy of your movie. Let lovin’ start, indeed.
Photoshop + BOSSY = Taking Stalking to the Logical Next Level
Lori at Spinning Yellow says
December 3, 2007 at 11:49 amI was stalking him before you, I swear!! But, I will bow out, b/c really, who could ever compete with that?! He is awesome, but you totally rock, Bossy!
Noelle says
December 3, 2007 at 11:55 amEntertaining. If this doesn’t bring him running… Well, at least maybe you can get love from dooce?
Liana says
December 3, 2007 at 12:02 pmYah ha ha ha!!! Dude! That was awesome. “High Fidelity” indeed…
Also I love your dog sacrificing its head for the sake of your obsession- ahem- I mean, art.
🙂 Isn’t ‘your husband’ dreamy?
Thanks for making my Monday a bit brighter!
Melizzard says
December 3, 2007 at 12:10 pmThe funniest thing I’ve seen in days!!!
Jackie says
December 3, 2007 at 12:24 pmYou’re adorable together!
It’s been about 229 days since my last haircut, too but I don’t look as cute as Bossy in hats *pouts*
Only Me says
December 3, 2007 at 12:24 pmOk that was too funny. I love him too and that is one of my favorite old school songs!
Laura says
December 3, 2007 at 12:25 pmBossy you are ingenious! I loved it-can you do one w/me & husband George Clooney too?! All that talk about him not ever getting married is a publicity stunt and I have the ring to prove it.
David says
December 3, 2007 at 12:31 pmOy, I totally needed that today. Thank you.
Therese says
December 3, 2007 at 12:34 pmNot only are you BOSSY, but you are also NUTS (meant in only the nicest way)! That was hilarious.
mp says
December 3, 2007 at 12:35 pmBossy’s huband that lives in her house and fathered her children is gonna FREAK when John comes knocking on the door wanting to wine and dine Bossy!!
Lynn Baber says
December 3, 2007 at 12:59 pmI love how much you “sound” like Ileen.
Your instinct that all friends of Ileen would want to see this was correct. She is most certainly laughing her butt off just as you describe her. Hugs to sweet J for me, K?
NotSoSage says
December 3, 2007 at 1:08 pmHe was so grabbing your boob in one of those. He’s diiirrrty.
And I’m jealous.
qt says
December 3, 2007 at 1:28 pmDude – dooce SO missed out on having you as a BFF. She regrets it now.
Peggy says
December 3, 2007 at 1:29 pmFor this we will place gifts at the Shrine Of Bossy…Doggie treats, hair salon coupons and all of Johns films on DVD…
Jenny says
December 3, 2007 at 2:07 pmThe boob grab was awesome. You guys are so wrong as a couple that it’s right.
Also, until this moment I thought “warm my heart” was “want my car”.
Manic Mommy says
December 3, 2007 at 2:07 pmOh, you lucky, lucky girl; I spy a restraining order in your future!

meleah rebeccah says
December 3, 2007 at 2:12 pmwhen its ‘meant to be’ like this you just know it…..I love when you stalk John.
Now I HAVE to get PhotoShop so I can do one of these with me and my husband Alec Baldwin.
Laura says
December 3, 2007 at 2:19 pmGotta love that. I want to do one of me and Eddie Vedder….sigh….
Jan, Fascinating says
December 3, 2007 at 2:22 pmYou PhotoShopped him in with your DOG.
Now THAT is commitment. I bow to your stalker-ness.
I totally thought that your rock and roll baby-daddy husband was going to be on the link. Because I am a little slow on the uptake, apparently.
PunditMom says
December 3, 2007 at 2:45 pmYou slay me, woman. And hands off my man. Bossy vs. PunditMom, best two of three? 😉
Grrl Genius says
December 3, 2007 at 2:47 pmBossy,
I have mostly been avoiding the world of blogs since NBC/Universal decided I was Satan for speaking out about free content on the internet that huge conglomerates make money off of, and writers don’t.
And then the fight got bigger. Cut to me walking a picket line, and trust me Bossy, I don’t have the kind of footwear required for this, but there I am.

BellaKarma says
December 3, 2007 at 3:04 pmSo you’re the big-haired slut he left me for?!
But were you there for him for One Crazy Summer?!
Laurie Foolery says
December 3, 2007 at 3:27 pmThank you just ever so much for not typing the “yeh-eh” part. I just hate super-literal transcriptions.
Loving the continued Bossy Helveticafest, and making appreciative donkey noises here at work with reckless abandon.
Yeh-eh Bossy!
Nancy says
December 3, 2007 at 3:33 pmCertifiably hilarious!

Hard to decide if it was better than the Dooce epic….
ah, what the what, they’re both masterpieces!!!!
Jen M says
December 3, 2007 at 6:32 pmBossy, if ever you become famous you shall need an entourage. I am applying for the position of Guru of Bossy’s Skincare. You’ll need to look your best on the talk shows.
Dara says
December 3, 2007 at 6:38 pmThe Thompson twins???!!!??!!!

You owe me 999.99.
Anna says

Suebob says
December 3, 2007 at 9:11 pmBitch, stay away from my husband!

claudia says
December 4, 2007 at 10:22 amHEY – this blog just made a name up for me. My “name” is not Strizz or Spazz or whatever it’s calling me.
claudia says
December 4, 2007 at 10:23 amOh, never mind. that was someone else. sorry for calling you a spazz.
Binkytown says
December 4, 2007 at 10:52 amI watched your husband last night and I thought he was cool until he walked on stage and did that wierd theater geek thing where he pretended to wave his hat down in rolls to the audience. What was that about?
Evolving says
December 4, 2007 at 10:56 amDang, you’re gettin’ fancy with the photoshop these days! — er. What I MEAN is, you and John are SO HOT together. He even looks good with stella. John Cusack was not in my dream about you, but he should have been.
Dr. Monkey says
December 4, 2007 at 11:44 amYour not only beautiful, you’re a feckin’ genius.
Meg says
December 4, 2007 at 12:05 pmBossy must have LOTS of extra time on her hands to take all those photos and doctor ’em up and set the timing to the music JUST RIGHT – gives her plenty of time to think about her “Husband”. Heeee!!
Well done in a mildly-disturbing, “perhaps she really IS a stalker?” sort of way…

Thanks for the laugh this morning.
John's Other Wife says

Thanks for the laugh…I can’t remember the last time I heard that song!
Also, are you familiar with BusyDad? I scrolled your comments to see if he was here…didn’t see him. He actually got his butt kicked by John Cusack when he was younger…said they had the same kick boxing coach…funny story.
