QOTD: Wednesday (hump day)
In honor of hump day:
If you could have a "hall pass" from your DH for 1 DAY to go out with someone famous (full day event), who would it be and what would you do?
(This idea was from the radio the other day when they asked what famous person you'd sleep with if you could have a "hall pass")
Re: QOTD: Wednesday (hump day)
honestly? I'd probably rather just hang out with Nigella Lawson, cooking & eating, than try to get it on with some hot famous dude.
I am a TOTAL weirdo when it comes to celebs. While I find some famous people attractive, I have no desire to meet them in person - I feel like a date would be awkward and weird. I was probably the only kid that didn't cut out a single picture from BOP and Tiger Beat, or have posters of the Backstreet Boys.
This was pretty much cemented when I spent a few hours with Owen Wilson and Reese Witherspoon when they filmed "How do you know" in DC, and it was a really bizarre experience.
So I'll just keep DH
LOL, yeah this is me. I figure if we're cooking then at least there's an "activity" to talk about to help me from turning into a mute.

i'd like for nigella to cook for my date with ewan mcgregor
We make the rockin' world go 'round.
How about Bono? We could talk about the causes we have in common, and if no sparks fly, maybe he could sing to me.
Or if we don't have to chat much, Bradley Cooper.
He could woo you in French!

i didn't choose jon hamm because DH has a big mancrush on him too
This is a toughie for me. Since we are spending all day together, I would like to have someone who is funny. In honor of Hall Pass, I would go with Jason Sudeikis. I think he's hilarious and very cute. Plus he was born in Fairfax, so something to talk about! Never mind that I look nothing like January Jones or Olivia Wilde...
Coming in a close second as a more "realistic" choice is Kyle Chandler (Coach Taylor from Friday Night Lights).
I have loved George Clooney since he was on the Facts of Life, but I'm not sure if I could spend all day with him - his politics are a deal breaker for me. BUT - if it was, say, an hour, he would definitely be my top choice!

so many men...so little time!
I know nothing about his personality but a day at the beach with Sawyer from LOST would be awesome.
Matt Damon or Ben Affleck - we could talk about our adorable babies.
Totally non-sexual, I'd love to spend a day with Bill Clinton, I think we could just talk and talk and talk all day.
I won't say no to George Clooney or Bradley Cooper either.
Sorry, I can't pick just one!
Oh, I'll take any of your sloppy seconds here. These guys are all wonderful.
Clearly we should be friends -- as my answer would be identical. Let's double date with the two of them! And I agree -- fancy, tux wearing location.
Ryan Seacrest, hands down. Some of my friends (who don't understand my obsession with him) tease me relentlessly, but some really understand the whole package that is Ryan.
He's ridiculously good looking (IMO), funny, adventurous, insightful, and I think I'd have a blast with him for a day. Too bad he's really, REALLY committed to Julianne Hough right now.
i haven't read the other posts but i my hall pass would be Josh Lyman from the West Wing....i am sure Bradley Whitford is a wonderful person but i would like my date to be with Bradley as Josh. (SWWWWWOON)
and (don't judge) but i would want a day with Justin Timberlake.
see, for me, he will ALWAYS be the douchebag boyfriend from adventures in babysitting. where he's wearing a freakin' cropped red sweatshirt
but he had the license plate "so cool!" (that Stephanie Plexer is such a sleeze)
