Friday Eye Candy: Jen E.’s Picks
This week for Friday Eye Candy we have a list of beautiful men from Jen at Momma Blogs Alot. I decided to leave her comments about each of the guys on here because I thought you might like to understand her reasons for her choices.
Enjoy (but don’t forget to head over to Jen’s blog to tell her thank you for putting together such a great list).
Johnny Depp (Might be more of a Brain Crush if that makes any sense, not that he isn’t gorgeous, but his mad acting skills just heighten it)
Orlando Bloom (This crush fades on occasion, but seriously, gah, in Pirates movies, more so than LOTR)
David Boreanaz (Only really recently since watching Bones - seriously - although I did like him a bit during the Buffy days)
Speaking of “seriously“, Patrick Dempsey - I never understood the hype until Grey’s Anatomy, tall dark and dreamy, likes to lean on things, suddenly I started calling my husband McHubby long before reading the McMommy Chronicles…
James Marsden (He’s been growing on me lately, but the deal was sealed after 27 Dresses)
Tom Cruise (I know people like to hate on him, but I’m not those people, and seriously, who didn’t want to marry Tom Cruise? Mission Impossible 1 anybody?)
****I interrupt this Friday Eye Candy with a special announcement for ThreeBoys1Mommy:
I know you said we’d be “SO OVER” if I posted a John Mayer pic, so I just thought I’d give you fair warning so you could close your eyes and scroll down.
But I must tell you that this is a good one. It is from the concert that I went to in July where he performed a song shirtless just for me. Just so you know. I know he offends a lot of people, but I just can’t quit him.
John Mayer… sigh… Do I really need to explain? Really? You know…
David Archuleta (Looks like my ex boyfriend which should make me hate him, but oh my the voice… Still, I could never actually do anything with him, him being 12 and all, but if he wanted to come and sing to me every morning, I wouldn’t kick him out…)
Joshua Jackson (I was the Pacey Fan, back in the day… it’s kind of faded since those days, but I still watch old episodes sometimes and “lean into the tv” on occasion…
And, finally, Hugh Grant, like between the voice and the man, heaven. For real.
Looking back at this, I cant help but notice a theme…Can you figure it out?

For this week’s Aloha Friday question:
If you could pick one guy on Jen’s list to cook you a romantic dinner, who would you choose and what meal would you have him cook for the two of you?
Bon Appétit!
An Open Letter to John Mayer Part 3
Dear John Mayer,
I’m sorry to have to tell you this, but I’m breaking up with you.
I think you are a really great guy–talented, charming, funny, sexy. It is just that you did something that I am finding really hard to get over.
It wasn’t the fact that I read an article in US Weekly that said that you liked having kinky sex with your girlfriends and telling everyone about it.
I can forgive you for that. (Truth be told, I was only slightly turned on disturbed by this.)
It wasn’t that you may or may not have been caught in a hot tub with 4 girls in Cabo after Jennifer Aniston may or may not have broken up with you because you may or may not have cheated on her with a fan.
I can forgive you for that since I appreciate entertainers who are friendly with their fans.
It wasn’t even that the article said the only reason you dated Jennifer in the first place was to see why Brad Pitt wouldn’t want her.
That is just plain mean, and didn’t sound like the man that writes such heartfelt love songs. I would never believe any of these vicious lies.
There is just one thing that I just can’t get over. The final straw that broke the camel’s back was when I saw the video of you talking about your breakup with Jennifer Aniston.
I appreciate you trying to clear the air, but I just can’t get over the fact that you did this to your hair:
Why, John, why? It just doesn’t make any sense. You looked so hot with your boyish, retro 80’s cut. Why mess with a good thing?
I stuck with you during your freakishly big hair days, because I figured it was just a phase you were going through. Maybe you were just trying to look like your girlfriend at the time, Jessica Simpson:
You may not have gotten the memo, John, but only one of my pretend boyfriends has my permission to shave their head and that is him:
Ok, and maybe him (but only when he is playing the role of a sexy police cadet for a movie):
But you (and James McAvoy) are not allowed to do this. Ever.
I can find it in my heart to forgive you for this indiscretion (and all the other stuff if in the off chance any of it is true) if you could do me one little, teeny, tiny favor.
You see, you are doing another one of those cruises. You know, the one where you pulled this stunt:
And I would LOVE to go, but there is one little problem. I spent the remainder of our vacation fund on last year’s trip to Disney World and my husband has put his foot down about taking anymore vacations until next summer.
Since your Mayercraft Carrier departs in March, that presents a bit of a problem.
So, I am once again petitioning you (and the Universe). If you could find it in your heart to give away one empty stateroom (preferably next to yours), I would love to accompany you on this little voyage.
Ok, and my husband would of course have to come too, but these are just minor details.
Thank you for your time and feel free to email me about the cruise.
Jen (Last Name is not Aniston)
An Open Letter to John Mayer (Part 2)
Dear John Mayer,
I forgive you for not contacting me about the concert tickets. I’m sure you must be very busy with your new lady friend and the tour, so you may not have as much time to google yourself anymore.
I won’t lie and say that I wasn’t a little disappointed, but life goes on.
Luckily, the Universe picked up your slack and we ended up eventually finding someone who was trying to unload tickets. The Universe must also know that I’m really cheap because the seller gave them to us for under face value! This was really peculiar because everyone else we found selling them were trying to get double the face value. I swear it was fate that sent this very nice woman to us. And just like that, my faith in the power of The Secret was restored.
I must tell you that you are an AWESOME performer!!! I’ve been to many concerts and I really like how you mix things up. One minute you are singing your own songs and the next minute you throw a little Aerosmith, Duffy, Tom Petty and Van Halen into the mix. It was like five concerts all rolled into one. Loved it!
Although I wish you would have done “Your Body Is A Wonderland” (yes, I know it’s kind of played out and doesn’t really go along with your new arm-sleeve tattoo and serious musician image) I will say that you made it up to me when you did Van Halen’s Panama.
Ok, so I don’t really even like that song very much, but I LOVED the idea of you not wearing a shirt while performing it. Best part of the concert for sure!!! (Sad to say that my camera’s battery chose to die at this exact moment and I only got a few seconds -stupid, stupid camera!!! )
I really do think you should have done the entire show without a shirt, but I’ll take whatever I can get.
Thanks for a fun night!
Love,
Jen
(And my husband who says that you are his idol for dating half his laminated list.)
Enjoying The Ride
Eleven years ago today, I married my husband.
I could sit here and write a bunch of sappy things about him and how much he means to me. You know what, that would all be true, but that just isn’t me. Or him for that matter.
The thing is-we’ve had our share of ups and downs. I guess you could say our relationship could be compared to a rollercoaster ride.
In the beginning, it felt like a wooden coaster. It was a very shaky and rough ride, with a LOT of bumps. But over the years (we’ve actually been together for sixteen), we’ve moved on to riding a steel coaster.
It still has the ups and downs, but for the most part it is a smooth ride. And there may even be a loop thrown in there every once in awhile (although I’m not sure what that represents but it’s probably good).
So, I’d like to quote the words of my favorite movie ever because although I could have bought him a card, I feel like this is better for the environment and isn’t that what a card is anyway–stealing someone else’s words to tell your feelings.
They speak the truth and are more romantic than a cheesy card could ever be.
“Well that’s what we do. We fight. You tell me when I’m being an arrogant son of a bitch and I tell you when you are being a pain in the ass. Which you are 99% of the time. I’m not afraid to hurt your feelings. You have like a two second rebound rate and you’re back do doing the next pain in the ass thing. So it’s not going to be easy. It’s going to be really hard. And we’re going to have to work at this every day. But I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, forever, you and me every day.”
Eleven years. Sixteen years. Sixty years. I don’t want to ever get off this ride.

PS We were married in the olden days before digital cameras, so I had to take a picture of my wedding album. That’s pretty sad, isn’t it?
PSS John Mayer still hasn’t contacted me about the concert. 
PSSS Here’s a link to the video from that scene. God, I love that scene.
PSSSS I’m getting a little obnoxious with PSing lately. ENOUGH!!!
An Open Letter to John Mayer
Dear Mr. Mayer,
Just in case you do, in fact, google yourself, I thought I’d throw something out there to you (or the Universe since I fully believe in the power of “The Secret“).
On Sunday, July 13th, you will be performing a concert in Columbia, Maryland. This venue is only a mere 30 miles from my house. I would love, love, LOVE to attend your concert, but I am a chronic procrastinator and put off buying tickets until today. And guess what? Your pavillion seats are sold out. Congrats to you. :) Boo for me.
Since you are John Mayer and probably could get your hot little hands on a few of the tickets, I am putting a request out to you (and the Universe) for just two measly tickets. (Preferably front row center, but of course I would take anything at this point.) (Accept the lawn because why bother, really. I could just youtube you performing if I wanted to see you that far away.)
July 13th, the date of said performance, just happens to also be my 11th wedding anniversary. We are both HUGE fans (well actually he loves U2 a little more than you but it is U2 so I think you can forgive that, but you are my #1 favorite singer, songwriter, guitarist, music person EVAH!!!!) so this would be like a gift from you to both of us.
I know you haven’t appeared on my Friday Eye Candy, and for that I am truly sorry. You are #4 on my laminated list (behind Ryan Gosling, James McAvoy, and Leonardo DiCaprio). I mean how could you not be:
To summarize: you… me… concert tickets… please. Thanks for your time. Have a great day. I love you.
Love,
Jen ( A real Goonie)
PS You can get in touch with me by email: dailymishmash (at) gmail (dot) com.
PSS To all my loyal readers, I apologize for Playlist. I am trying to score some John Mayer tickets and I want him to think that I always have his songs playing on my blog.
