It’s been over a year since my last List post, and since then I’ve had to fire and replace 3 of my candidates.
(If you don’t know about this, it’s from the Friends episode where they talk about the 5 celebrities you’re “allowed” to sleep with. I’m not sure who decided there should only be 5, but they’re stupid and I hate them.)
Anyway, I realize replacing over half my List in a year makes me sound all sorts of fickle. So be it, maybe I am… but I had good reason in every case.
My original List (not necessarily in order) was:
- Jamie Bamber
- Steve Gonsalves
- Jacob Black/Taylor Lautner
- Jonathan Rhys Meyers
- Viggo Mortensen
The first to go was young Taylor. He was off the List practically before I hit publish on the last post. On account of how he was only 17. Since then, he’s turned 18, but all cougar and “want some candy little boy?” jokes aside, I’m really not interested in dating a young ‘un who has no idea what to do with it. I’d rather have someone who is more my match intellectually and maturity-wise. And did I mention the part about knowing what to do with it?
Also, there are some rumors floating around lately that young Taylor may not be on my team. Not that that there’s anything wrong with that, but it’s hard enough to sleep with a celebrity. I don’t need further impediment such as my prey love interest (allegedly) not liking vaginas.
Fortunately I rather quickly found a replacement for young Taylor because I started watching Stargate SG1. There’s nothing I like more than a sexy nerdy guy who knows lots of stuff about nerdy things. And gets excited about talking about nerdy things. And scrinches his face up all cute when he’s thinking. There’s no better example of this than Dr. Daniel Jackson, played by the yummy, yummy Michael Shanks.
Already hot, right? But then as the seasons progressed, this started happening:
I’m pretty sure that last pic is from Michael Shanks Online. Regardless you need to make a clicky on that link because not only do they have a mighty fine gallery of pics of him, it’s a real, official site that he and his wife actually are involved in*.
(AND? He’s going to be on Stargate Universe tonight. I’ve been waiting months for this. Now I just have to try to keep my drool off the flat screen.)
Then I started watching Stargate Atlantis and ran into a little problem. Because frankly, I’d give up a non essential body part (like a kidney) for a night with Ronon Dex.
His name is Jason Momoa. Remember it, because he’s Conan in the new movie. Not only is he ridiculously, insanely fine he’s a really good actor.
Also, I’m going to take a minute to pimp Gateworld, even though once I was told I had been selected to do episode transcripts for them, and then I never heard from anyone (hello? I’m a huge fan with no job and tons of free time… what the hell?), because they really are an essential source if you’re in any way a Gater. Even if you’re one of those Gaters who only started with Stargate: Universe.
Ok, I’m kidding there, but honestly if you wander into the forums there you do so at your own risk. It’s mostly people who love all things Stargate, but there are also some trolls seriously hardcore fans who will CUT YOU if you dare to disagree with them.
Where was I? Oh yes, someone had to go so I fired Jamie Bamber for Jason. I would say it was a tough decision, but
Now here’s where things get a little tricky and I think I need to officially petition my husband to allow me to have an alternate. I mean, he’s already allowed me to have an unlimited amount of ladies on my Girl List, and I think this is practically the same thing.
It occurred to me that I didn’t have any sexy musician type cowboy hat wearing hotties on my List, and for a West Virginia girl, that just won’t do.
No one does this like Tim McGraw.
So, my problem is this. Tim is mighty fine, but no one will ever bump Viggo Mortensen or Steve Gonsalves. So, I decided to bump Jonathan Rhys Meyers.
And then The Tudors came back on.
So, you see my problem, right? I need to have an alternate/ back-up on the grounds of There Are Too Many Hotties In The World.
To recap, here is my current List, again in no particular order:
- Viggo Mortensen
- Steve Gonsalves
- Michael Shanks
- Jason Momoa
- Tim McGraw
alternate: Jonathan Rhys Meyers
As much as I love talking about hotties, technically this wasn’t my idea. The Last Gentleman started it, so I decided googling pictures of yummy guys wasn’t a bad way to spend an afternoon.
* Michael Shanks and his wife, Lexa Doig (Dr. Lam on SG1, among other roles) are doing an MS walk if you have any extra money laying around and want to donate it to a good cause. Info is on their site I linked above.
