Questionable Crushes

I had planned to write a post about how I rocked my Valentine's Day by getting in a workout, avoiding chocolate, and chosing a healthy option for our dinner out.

It's becoming a little "blah, blah. blah" to me. I hate blogs that constantly preach about how awesome they are - after a while it's like reading the same thing every frickin' day.

I'm on track. I'm rocking it. Enough said.

I had an interesting conversation at work yesterday with regards to my plans for valentines day. Someone asked what I was up to and I replied "Going to see my boyfriend Jim Cuddy" and she was kind of appalled that I would find such a man so attractive... especially when comparing him to my true love Derek Jeter.

I kinda get it looking at the side by side comparison.

Jeter is my true love for reasons like a) he plays for the Yankees b) he has green eyes (my fav) a beautiful smile c)he's tall and just overall he's easy on the eyes.

But there is just something incredibly sexy about a man with an instrument that makes me weak in the knees. He sounds so incredible live, it's hard not to want to take off your top and profess your love for him.

This conversation segued into my other "questionable" crushes.

John Goodman, Shaquille O'Neal, Burton Cummings and Charles Barkley.

I've always kinda loved John Goodman, even as a child while watching him on Roseanne. He's funny. I like funny.

When I publicly admit to crushing on Shaq, I always get the "WTF??" look. He plays  the sport I loathe most in this world, but he's actually pretty funny.Because a certain someone in my house is obsessed with basketball, it's on quite frequently. The witty banter between Shaq and Charles Barkley is pretty funny. Check out "Shaq Knows" on YouTube. Funny shit.

Burton Cummings... I know. Wait, do you guys know who Burton Cummings is? My Canadian readers should, but he was the leading dude in The Guess Who and followed up with a solo career. That man can sing and plays the piano like a beast. I blame my obsession on my Dad's influence on me as a child. The first song I learned on the piano was "These Eyes". But that's a story for another day....

And Charles Barkley. What got me crushing on him was his inability to swing a golf club. In fact. they made an entire show called "The Haney Project" while documents his (lack of) progress. Priceless.

Alright... spill your guts: Who are your questionable crushes?
