My Five

My boyfriend and I have an arrangement. We each have a list of five famous people that if we cheated on each other with, we would have an exemption of any type of infidelity consequences. This type of list was featured (and perhaps created) on an episode of Friends long ago. I know other couples also have this type of list. It is a fun, fanciful type of list. I typically do not believe in infidelity, but since the chances of every actually meeting anyone on either person's list, never mind going beyond a hand shake and a pic is pretty is close to 0%, this list is a lot more about fun than fact. Now anyone famous can be on this list, and it is not a fixed list. I change mine often. The only "rule" that I prescribe to is that you cannot add someone you just met. For example say Keifer Sutherland was not on my list because quite frankly I would not want to waste a spot on him since he just doesn't do it for me. But say, unbeknown to me, he is filming a movie in Cranston, RI (just go with me on this) and I happen to run into him at a local establishment and he invites me back to his trailer for some private time. I could not call up my boyfriend, add Keifer to the list and then spend some time with him. Against the rules.

I am flying to California on Sunday for a week, which is why the topic of this list is being raised. Typically my chance of meeting somebody famous that is on the list are probably one in a billion. Seeing that I am going to a place where many famous people live, I would say my chance will be more at a 1 in a few million. With this in mind I decided it was time to make a firm, "realistic" list before my plane takes off. I mean you never know....

So keeping in mind that I am trying to be "realistic" I decided that I needed to take off some usuals from the list. Tom Brady was the first. First of all, he is now married to Gisele. Mind you it is not the fact that he has a supermodel wife, it is just the fact that he has a wife. And second of all, the Patriots have started training so he would be a more realistic pick if I was staying on this coast. Also to come off is Brad Pitt. Now, Brad Pitt hasn't necessarily been a top choice since he left Jen for Angelina. I did not respect that decision at all, and if I only get 5, I would like to actually respect the person. Location is another issue with Mr. Pitt. He is usually jetting around the world trying to save people so who knows if he will even be in CA when I am.

Now there is one man who has always been on the list and will always be. I like to refer to him as my lifer. Now some women will completely understand this, while others with view it with despair. And against his better judgement he is recently married to someone other than me but I can't ever take him off the list. Wait for it...wait for it....Bruce Willis, ah, deep sigh. I think he is still one of the sexiest men alive. Still. You either get or you don't so I will leave it at that.

Now the next two on the list are recent additions. First is Jeffrey Dean Morgan, mind you I had to google him to find out his name, but he is still on the list. He played Denny on Grey's Anatomy, as well as William, the Irish singer in P.S. I love you. His grin drives me wild. Next new addition is Adam Samberg. He is so funny, and fairly cute and would be a lot of fun. Hell, if I am adding Adam, I may as well add JT. They could both be my mother lovers!!!

Now I would love to add Chuck from Gossip Girl because I heart Chuck, but not sure Ed Westwick would live up to his character's persona. I may very well be disappointed with that choice so I think choosing him may be a waste. My final choice is going to require some research and deep thought. And perhaps a last minute decision. Or since I love my boyfriend, it is time to shorten the list to only 4, and make him the 5th as a statement. Or not.
