Well, no big surprise. After all, I DO recycle!
This was a fun quiz -- I got to decide what kind of fabric I am (fishnet, natch) and describe my ideal date (beach) and the thing that puts me in the mood (a man doing dishes -- no joke). The quiz comes from Ann Marie Michaels, whose blog is here. Ann Marie is on the GCC with me. Her book is Cooking to Hook Up, which is like a bachelor's guide to romancing women in the kitchen. So naturally, her BOYFRIEND LIST is fun city.
(and have any close readers noticed how often Hugh Grant seems to show up on these lists? Hugh! We love you, you naughty man, you!)

My Fantasy Boyfriend List
by Ann Marie Michaels
(hey, this is kinda like fantasy football--for girls)

1. Wes Anderson, director (Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic).

Wes will always be my # 1 fantasy boyfriend. I fell in love with him when I heard him being interviewed by Terry Gross on NPR's Fresh Air. I love his mind. I also love the way he dresses, his sexy f***d-up British teeth -- oh and the music he chooses for his soundtracks. The Ramones and The Velvet Underground and David Bowie ... plus he's a Texan. I'm a Texan! We both went to the same film school! Sigh ... I wanna marry him.

2. Malcolm Gladwell, author (The Tipping Point, Blink).

Yes, Malcolm Gladwell. I know he may not be "empirically attractive" (that's a quote from WHMS -- When Harry Met Sally), but he is hot stuff in person. Plus, I like those nerdy, intellectual types (see #
1). When he autographed my copy of Blink I was so star-struck, I could hardly make any words come out of my mouth.

3. Conor Oberst, musician (Bright Eyes).

A little too "Jordan Catalano" in the looks deptartment for my taste (Wes Anderson is my ideal -- think tall/skinny/glasses). That said, Colin Oberst is so smart and creative and so emo -- mmm.

4. Jimmy Stewart, actor (It's A Wonderful Life, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, etc.).

My favorite Hollywood actor -- EVER. What a fox!

5. William Powell, actor (The Thin Man, My Man Godfrey, etc.).

I can watch The Thin Man series thousands of times. I fantasize about drinking martinis with Nick Charles.

6. Rhett Miller, musician (Old 97's).

I shouldn't say that because I actually know him -- but I had a crush in him in college. But then again, so did everybody.

7. Cary Grant, actor (His Girl Friday, Notorious, etc.)

What's not to love? He was the original metrosexual.

8. Hugh Grant, actor (Four Weddings & a Funeral, About a Boy, etc.).

Yeah, I can't help it.

9. Ashton Kutcher, actor, Demi's main squeeze.

He's just so adorable. (But I still like Wes better.)

10. Wes Anderson.

Did I mention Wes Anderson? I did? Oops. Anybody know him or know someone who knows him? Or know someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows him? Hook a girl up! (Can't hurt to ask.)
