Today’s Top Five
One of my best friends in the entire universe and I, have spent years perfecting our Top Five. That is, the Top Five men that you adore and want to do inappropriate but highly pleasing things with. Anytime we have time to kill, waiting for a movie to start or stuck in traffic- one of us says ‘Top Five?’ and we spend the next ten minutes with ridiculous grins on our faces as we mentally weigh the idea of Ryan Gosling versus George Clooney.
Maybe because it’s spring or because the patios are now filled with charming men with the promise of great tans or maybe it’s because the last time I had sex there was a different President, (SIGH. Commence ice crunching… now) but lately I’ve been dedicating more and more time to my Top Five. Here’s who is currently on my list:
1. Josh Lyman. Yes, I realize that technically it’s Bradly Whitford but I’m in love with the character. (And if that doesn’t red flag me for a brain check, I’m not sure what will). But Josh Lyman is the perfect man. He’s smart and witty and knows how to tease a girl without hurting her feelings. Plus? He’s just as hot in a tuxedo as he is drunk in a wife beater. Swoon

2. Daniel Dae Kim. That gaze. Those cheekbones. Sun better watch her back. Drat. Mixing reality with fantasy again.

3. David. Ohhh David. I’ve professed my love to him before, but it should mentioned again. I love him. The hair, the eyes, the wit. And yes, I KNOW he’s gone through some personal issues, but haven’t we all had some bumps along the way? Besides, anyone who is battling personal issues and can maintain this level of hotness is good in my books.

4. John. Oh sweet baby J. (I like how now I’m just on a first name basis with these guys). What’s not to love? The quirky sense of humor, the self deprecating wit, the height, his charm, the way he braids my hair… or you know, WOULD braid my hair if he knew how much I adored him. Sigh. Confession? If I was picking Just ONE today? John would be it. I need to go lie down now and collect my thoughts.

5. Ryan. Ryan, Ryan, Ryan. Oh… Ryan. That beard? If someone could harness his sex appeal, I think Obama would have his new energy source. I can’t wait until him and Rachel come back to their senses and get back together as they should be. Because if they were perfect in the movies, it means they will be perfect in real life together. (And yes, that’s EXACTLY how my brain works.)

6. Joshua. Because he’s Canadian, a dreamboat and the star of one of the best movies I’ve seen in a long time, he makes the list. Of course, I wouldn’t want to actually hook up with him, he’s too much in love with his current girl for that to ever happen. I think that’s part of the reason I like him so much- he appears to be absolutely smitten and doesn’t appear to care that the world knows. I appreciate that quality- not just in men with hair I want to touch but in anybody. It takes so much courage to be bold in love and Pacey appears to be brave. Swoon.

I love your list! Of course, Ryan is my favorite and I love the harnassing of his sex appeal–so true. And yes, R/R were perfect and will one day get back together. I have faith that it will happen. Love Pacey (oops, I mean Josh) too!!

For me it would be Harrison Ford, Ryan Gosling & Ryan Reynolds (could I take them at the same time and have them count as one person?), Val Kilmer (when he was thin), Leonardo DiCaprio, and Paul Rudd.
May 14th, 2009 at 12:22 pm
Josh Jackson and I share the same birthday.
Fact.
I would throw away all self-respect and morals for Ryan Reynolds and Chris Evans.
Also a fact.

[...] everyone knows a good supporting cast can save even the most helpless movie. Especially if if Ryan Gosling is involved. Happy Friday [...]
May 16th, 2009 at 11:44 am
Josh Lyman would be my numbers 1-5. Yeah, take me with you to that brain exam.
May 16th, 2009 at 1:20 pm
this is so hard, and i’m not sure if asked tomorrow i’d have the same list…
that being said.
1. george
2. jon (probably also my #1)
3. josh lymann (also the character not the actor)
4. paul newman (yes, it okay to love dead people)
5. and a combo of josh lymann and jon…weird

Mine change CONSTANTLY. Mainly depending on which soppy chick flick I’ve seen recently and therefore totally fallen in love with the romantic lead.
Actually, I have a soft spot for Michael Sheen at the moment. And Joseph Fiennes will ALWAYS be up there. That man can work a good pair of tights.
May 19th, 2009 at 1:34 am
1. robert pattinson, the sexy hobo
2. jason segal, so tall and so funny
3. jerry o’connell (seriously, can’t be explained)
4. FRANCO. Oh, James.
5. the mentalist. whatever his name is.
