How Is It Monday Already

February 22, 2010 | Filed under: Stuff

I took this pic over the weekend, sunset at Donner Lake. It’s sort of a romantic picture, which leads into my question of the day in a round about way.

We’ve been watching the olympics, and I find myself with two inappropriate crushes. Bode Miller, and Apolo Ohno. Don’t ask me why, I can’t explain either one.

So here’s the question of the day — who’s your crush, inappropriate or otherwise? Come on, don’t leave me hanging out here all by myself.

    Neil Patrick Harris. Yum. Also, the sock monkey from the Kia Sorento commercial.

  2. bonita says:

    ohno, and shawn white. Bode blew it during the last olympics and I still can’t quite forgive him for his attitude.
    And I agree with jinky, that sock monkey is fine…

  3. Judy F says:

    Just two Jill? LOL

    I don’t know if I would call it a crush but I just love Shelton from Big Bang Theory.

    I think Louis Vitto is just adorable too

  4. Crystal says:

    Stone Wilder but I’m thinking he might be usurped by his big brother pretty soon. ;-)

  5. Stephanie P. says:

    I agree with Jinky. Also, I adore Tom Wellings eyes, they are amazingly green. :grin:

    P.S – Pretty picture.

  6. Stacy ~ says:

    Hmmm, let’s see. David Krumholz (Charlie) from Numb3rs. Smart & adorable.

  7. Terri Schaefer says:

    Oh my…well, when it comes to the dudes on the big screen, Matt Damon (sooooo looking forward to Green Zone) and Barry Pepper. In the Olympics? Shaun White, definitely!!

  8. Sarah says:

    Ty Herndon. I can’t see a picture of him without taking a moment to stare. Sexy! And oh boy can that man sing.

  9. Chris says:

    Nathan Kamp. *nom nom nom*

  10. Aly says:

    Nathan Fillion :lol:

  11. M says:

    I have a new thing for the Canadian fireman Curler. I was watching curling this weekend (ok, so I’m a dweeb) and hoooboy is a cutie. I don’t even know his name. He can be anyone he wants to be…just sayin.

  12. ayleen says:

    I think i’ve had a crush on Leonardo DiCaprio since Growing Pains…oh and Roarke of course

  13. Steph says:

    Neal from White Collar!

  14. tennismom says:

    I would kill to have Shawn White’s hair.
    On the screen: Gerard Butler & Eric Winter.
    Sports: retired tennis player Patrick Rafter

    Hey how about middle’s basketball update?

  15. Fannie says:

    I have three:
    David James Elliott–Harm on JAG
    Alex O’laughlin–Mick St. John
    Richard Dean Anderson–Macgyver
    I guess that tells you I am a lot older than you. The only sport I watch is NASCAR so that makes Tony Stewart my guy. Have a great day and hugs to all.

  16. JenFS says:

    Gerard Butler, yum!
    Harry Connick, Jr., something really sexy about him.
    Zac Efron, is that wrong?
    Nathan Fillion, oh yeah! But his Firefly days were better! Love me some overalls and boots. ;)

  17. Nicole Laurent says:

    Sigh. I’ve had a crush on Ohno for a while. My 8 year-old daughter has joined me in Crushville since seeing him in the Olympics.

    And I have a crush on two actors from Cougar Town. The hot neighbor (Grayson) and strangely, Cox’s character’s ex-husband (Bobby). He’s just such a guy’s guy.

    And then there’s Ranger. Who doesn’t exist. Darn it. ;)

  18. Deb says:

    Oh my gosh, I am so hooked on Apolo Ohno, it’s ridiculous. So much awesomeness in such a perfectly-thighed package…

    Can we start some petition that asks that the skaters wear shorts. You know, so we can appreciate their…..erm, athleticism more fully?

  19. Ashley says:

    Yay, I’m a winner! Thanks for making my Monday Jill! This is the first contest I’ve won on your blog.
    Nathan Fillion and David Boreanaz. And how about the cutie from American Idol with the shoulder length blonde hair, love his voice too.

  20. Sabrina says:

    1. Roarke!!!
    2. Nathan Fillion mostly because of the fact that I started reading the “in death” books right when Castle first came out and his character reminded me of Roarke (not so much anymore though.)
    3. David Boreanaz. I had a crush on him during Buffy and he is still hot and maybe even a little more so as Booth.

  21. Sabrina says:

    Um, Jill? I know it’s Monday and all, but I’m confused about your contest winners. It said the winners were #14, #67 and #81, but I only saw 65 comments. Is there something I’m missing, or was that a test to see if we would notice? :mrgreen:

  22. Jana H. says:

    I’m deeply and madly in crush with the hottie who installed the heat pump at my house last October. Who needs a celebrity crush when there’s a “Comfort Specialist” (his official occupation, according to business card) around who really melts my butter? :mrgreen:

  23. Brandy says:

    Hmm, definitely Nathan Fillion and David Boreanaz. *G* But, my hubs doesn’t know, so shhhhhhhh!

  24. Donna M says:

    My crush is Wade! I read Slow Heat over the weekend, it was such a delightful book and I hated seeing it end. Thanks Jill for giving me such a pleasureable read. :smile: Wade is yummy!

    Other crushes David James Elliot, Tom Sellack, and Robert Wagner who has a voice that just melts me!! Like Fannie I am showing my age! Apollo Ono is someone I just want to hug, like a son! I loved him on Dancing With The Stars, he can move! I’m so glad he is doing well on the short track.

  25. catslady says:

    Question??? maybe it’s me but you picked 67 and 81 and there were only 65 replies to the contest??? Congrats Ashley on #18. You also had an older contest on picking a word for your picture. sorry to be a pain but I keep going back and thought maybe you forgot :)

    I have to go with Nathan Fillion – what a dream and with a great sense of humor.

  26. Melanie says:

    Omg I totally have olympic crushes! Seth Wescott, Dale Begg-Smith,Michael Phelps and pretty much the entire USA swim team! :) how can you not love a man with a rockin bod with a super tight spedo?? :)

  27. Lizzi says:

    As a 29 yr old I am pretty sure I could corrupt Zac Effron but I am sure Tom Selleck could teach me a thing or two…

    Just goggled Bode Willis…words fail me. Mmm.

  28. Pat L. says:

    In no particular order:
    Nathan Fillion – he was in a quirky movie Sat on Lifetime – Waitress (he is a real hunko)
    George Clooney
    Bode Miller
    Michael Weather from NCIS

  29. Pat L. says:

    Michael Weatherly – sorry for typo.

  30. Kelly Breakey says:

    Ok keep in mind that the crushes I have are not on the men playing them so much as the characters themselves. I absolutely loved Josh Lyman on the West Wing. I mean really who can forget Lemon Lymans. I always routed for him!
    And Seeley Booth on Bones. Who does not want to be with a man that will fake a dine and dash to make someone else feel good about themselves. (Sigh) Bones does not deserve him!
    And for all those girls who can’t help but to fall for the little boy in the mans body, Richard Castle mystery crime writer. Hello, Mr. Castle can I play guitar hero with you!

  31. mapleotter says:

    @M …totally agree with you about the Canadian firefighter curler. His name is John Morris and he’s definitely at the top of my Olympic crush list. GO CANADA!

  32. Diana says:

    My inappropriate crush is Robert Pattinson because he’s in his early twenties and I’m 31.

  33. Jane says:

    I love Seth Wescott, too.

  34. Melanie says:

    You have great taste Jane!! Seth Wescott is one hot, talented man! AND he sang the national anthem at his medal ceremony! :) does it get any better?!

  35. Liza says:

    I love Nathan Fillion from Castle, all the men from NCIS, and Shaun White.

    Beautiful picture, Jill.

  36. D says:

    Ok I fell hard this weekend for the Norwegian skier Aksel Lund Svindal..good god he reminded me of my husband(cold on a winter night, grab a Nord..just sayin’). Hubby took our youngest up to Whistler this weekend and they were at the Men’s Super Combined, got to see it all up close and personal..

  37. Angelique says:

    1. Bode Miller is also a new crush of mine!
    2. Dr. Sweets from Bones! :) I <3 me some nerd!
    3. David Boreanez is hot (as Angel or as Booth).

  38. Jo says:

    I would have to say George Eads from CSI and Dwayne Johnson.. Gotta love him!! The harry potter boys have grown up nicely as well,,, :grin:

  39. Amanda says:

    Bode Miller and the german bobsled team have caught my eye, and it’s the one thing I’ve made sure I watch this year!

    Can I just have a crush on Jake from the bachelor? that’s the current one. So, pretty.

    Oh and Alexander Skarsgard.

  40. Eshani says:

    I would have to go with Channing Tatum – completely drool worthy ;)
    I have to agree with Amanda too though, Jake from the bachelor is actually pretty yummy too.

  41. Tracy S says:

    I’m with you regarding Apolo Anton Ohno. He’s a cutie and I love his attitude. After winning a Silver, he was celebrating in such a way that if you had just turned the TV on you would have thought he won the Gold.

    I just looked up his age~cripes, I’m 10 years older than him, so I guess inappropriate fits LOL

  42. kh says:

    was there 67 and 81 for the contest lol

    tiger woods
    robe lowe

  43. Samantha says:

    Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs and Nathan Fillion, both very funny, sexy men. In fact my girlfriends and I have an ongoing fight on who would get Mike Rowe if we should ever meet him in person…I’m willing to throw a punch and pull hair to win. :razz:

  44. Ronna Drane says:

    Josh Duhmel even tho he seems to get around ;)
