and because this is what my life has become watching: fraiser has taken top rank on the tv, well on the weekends when we watch tv. I’m pretty sure I’ve discussed this before, but I can’t get over how in love with the show I am. I mean cafe nervosa on the daily, being on the radio and just being classy.
