My Life in a Nutshell
Wow... my blog passed 100,000 views this week!

In celebration I bring you this Hottie of the Week... I just wish all paramedics looked like this!

Stephen Amell, who plays the much younger paramedic Scott on Private Practice.  Oh, to be Violet during those make-out scenes...

It took a date night with a co-worker to make me want need to bring back the Sunday Hottie of the Week... and I may be attempting to download Captain America and every other movie this man has ever been in right now.

I bring you Chris Evans.  You can thank me later.
And... if you like chick flicks - you neeeeeeed to go and see What's Your Number.  This boy does so many things (half naked) that just make you sigh... and possibly need a cold shower.

I'll explain the whole why I was on a date with a co-worker instead of the date from POF that I had set up later... just keep looking at Chris Evans until then.

As I sit at my desk watching Portugal take on Brazil working diligently, I can't help but notice the amazingness (yes that's a word!) of some of the men on the pitch.  These men are gorgeous. And very worthy of the title of the Hottest Forward is...

Cristiano Ronaldo
Team: Portugal
Age: 25 Height: 6' 1"
Interesting Facts: Cristiano Ronaldo was nicknamed crybaby as a child by his mother (unfortunately rather fitting for a professional footballer).  Cristiano wore the same number as David Beckham while playing for Manchester United.

After hours of research (by that I mean scouring the internet for pictures and watching every World Cup game on the TV... sometimes twice if it was a good game)... my vote for the hottest goaltender of the World Cup is...

Maarten Stekelenburg
Team: Netherlands
Age: 27 Height: 6' 4 1/2"
Interesting Facts: Maarten is deaf in one ear, and is the only Dutch goalkeeper to ever be assessed a red card in international play against Australia in 2008.

It's been awhile since I've done a Hottie of the Week post... so I thought I would do a series of them to highlight some of the hotties of the FIFA World Cup of Soccer (Football) in South Africa. If the sounds of the vuvuzela don't drive me to a) drink excessively or b) kill myself because I have lost my mind thinking that a giant swarm of killer bees are after me, I'll be posting hotties, by position (and by that I mean position on the pitch, not the position that I want them in) throughout the next week.  At the end I'll crown my very own World Cup Hottie.

If you have a soccer hottie that you want highlighted, let me know... I am on the prowl search now for some awesome shirtless pictures of players from around the world. Seriously -I am getting heart palpitations at every Google search.

I am sticking with sitcom heartthrobs this week...

It is hard to imagine that this...
Grew up into this...Follow Neil Patrick Harris on Twitter - he doesn't post much, but when he does he takes full advantage of his 140-characters.

Today is Sunday... which means tomorrow is Monday (duh)...

Which means that tomorrow is the best night of sitcoms of the week. I love How I Met Your Mother, Accidentally on Purpose, and the Big Bang Theory.

And I especially love Sheldon...
I {heart} nerds.

I was struggling to think of a Sunday Hottie of the Week today, when I saw a couple of tweets from the lovely @brandyismagic and @racheliza... and they put a picture of this wonderful specimen in my mind...

Feast your eyes on Bradley Cooper.Oh, to be Renee Zellweger these days...

And yes... I know he's been a Hottie of the Week before... but when I found this half-naked bathtub picture I thought he deserved another appearance!

I am starting off the new year with a vow to get back to my Sunday Hotties of the Week... it honestly seems like every time I watch a movie with Colin Firth in it, I think about starting up my weekly posts again. And since I happen to be watching Love Actually this evening, I thought it was only fitting to post another British hottie for you all to ogle (yes, I just said ogle).

Introducing Matthew Goode.His new movie Leap Year is coming out on January 8. Anyone want to see it with me? You'll have to understand that I will probably swoon the entire movie though and perhaps even giggle like a schoolgirl at times...

Go ahead and enjoy.

I am addicted to vampires.

I friggin' hate it. I am not the kind of girl that reads Twilight, watched True Blood, buys all the Sookie Stackhouse books, and now has started watching the Vampire Diaries...

But seriously...

When the view you get on the TV is as good as this it is hard to be ashamed of my vampire addiction.

Meet Alexander Skarsgård, my favorite vampire on True Blood...
You can find the rest of the pictures here... thanks to whoever posted this on Twitter, I will love you forever.

It has been a long time since I have crowned anyone my Sunday Hottie of the Week... it isn't because there aren't hot guys out there... it is because I am lazy.

I decided, that in honour of the fact that I watched "He's Just Not That Into You" last weekend, and also in honour of the fact that I think my saga of the guy and the ex-LIGF is almost over (it may actually be over since I haven't heard from him all weekend... granted, this would not be the first time I have been ignored on a weekend only to be pestered by texts during the week)... I bring you Bradley Cooper.
I will try not to hold it against him that he was the cheating slimeball in the movie...

I love CSI marathons (well, except CSI: Miami because David Caruso gives me the heebie jeebies)... and well... with CSI: NY marathons comes ample viewing of my current Hottie of the Week, Eddie Cahill (I won't hold it against him that he is a Rangers fan)...

And what could be better than a hottie holding a Stanley Cup? I mean seriously... you don't want to know what these pictures are doing to my loins...
Enjoy!

I hope I can redeem myself after last weeks hottie... I will admit, that Seth Rogan was a very nontraditional hottie... but I am sure you will all agree that this weeks hottie is... well... hot. No - make that H. O. T.

In all his glory... here is Paul Walker...While I think that his Fast and the Furious movies have dumb names (The Fast and the Furious, 2 Fast 2 Furious, The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift and now Fast & Furious - and yes... I know he wasn't in all of them... but still)... just looking at those arms makes me swoon.

I don't know what it is about this boy... he's not gorgeous, and honestly, if he approached me in a bar I'd probably look the other way... but when I see him in movies and watch interviews with him, I smile a little bit... he's one of those guys that gets cuter and cuter as the movie goes on.

Maybe it's because he is Canadian... and we all know that Canada produces awesome comedic talent.

Introducing... Seth Rogan!Forget Miri... I'd make a porno with you any day... okay, maybe not... but still... look me up if you are ever in town...

Oh, he may be a womanizer, a smoker and have a tiny lisp, but really - do they get much more fine than Jude Law? Especially in the Holiday where my heart melts when he makes Mr. Napkin Head to please his little British daughters...
I would take him... even with his flaws. I'm just saying.

Why hello Joshua Jackson, you have come a long way from this:to this:
This picture makes me want to review my policy on bearded men.

Not to mention he is Canadian - and he can skate - which gives him bonus points in my books. I always liked Pacey better than Dawson anyways...

It is the NHL All Star Weekend... one of my favorite times of year (next to the World Junior Hockey Championships, the NHL playoffs and any time I do not have to be at work)... a time where players can have some fun, and really - a chance for me to see a lot of hot guys, on one rink, with their helmets off.

It is with this in mind that I bring you the first Hottie{s} of the Week for 2009 (yeah... I was slacking off for awhile... sorry about that)...

My blogging friend Chris (I say that even if he is an Oilers fan) over at Mother Pucker Hockey has been giving women a voice on his blog (not that he hasn't before... but really... hot guys and hockey - now that is a topic that will bring just about any female out to comment) for a few weeks now... first was a call for the Hot Shots of the NHL, then round one of Hockey Hottie voting... and he then narrowed it down to the Top 5 for the Hockey Hottie Final Round.

I am just happy that two of my suggestions made it to the final five... and really... I am almost more happy that I have been opened up to the wonderful world of Henrik Lundqvist. This man is dreamy... and foreign... with an accent... okay - I will stop now...

Here is my Hottie{s} of the Week... courtesy of all the women (and men?) who voted in MPH's Hockey Hotties poll.

#1 - Henrik Lundqvist
#2 - Sidney Crosby
#3 - Alexander Ovechkin
#4 - Taylor Pyatt#5 - Patrick Kane
Oh and as for a worthwhile award for the hottie that got the most votes? How about me? I mean... what could be better? Yeah... I am just joking... sort of... not really...

In all of my "photo research" today... I stumbled upon Hockey for the Ladies... check it out!

And don't forget to check out Mother Pucker Hockey*... where you can commiserate about how much Pierre McGuire is a Monster (douche)... and read some great unbiased posts on hockey on the ice and off.

*And no... I didn't get paid for this... I honestly read the site regularly and there are live streams of just about every NHL hockey game out there... which is perfect for a Canucks fan that lives in Flames/Oilers country.
