Exciting news!

I know, I know-I promised no mention of John or Jim but I'm a rebel, man. Give me a rule and I'll find a way to break it. Also, this is too good not to share: The latest news from Hollywood is that the writer's strike is all but over which means we could still get up to 6 new episodes of the Office before the season ends! I'm almost as excited as these guys:

"And they say she's so lucky, she's a star..."

Hi, sorry I have been so slack but I am finally meeting my challenge of connecting Britney to Jim Halpert or John Krasinski, for I am a woman true to my word.

While we are all aware of Britney's sad downward spiral, I wanted to take a moment and focus on the beautiful girl she was and still is, with these stunning and simple photos taken several years ago...










And while Britney been on a downhill slide since her days of glory, some stars just get better with time, for instance John Krasinski, who went from this:



To this:



Hmmm, that gives me an idea...



Ummm....nope.

And I promise to mention neither Britney nor John/Jim in my next post. Well, not exclusively anyway...:P

I'll just call it Jim/John-time! @ Ani-time!

I just read a great account/review of John at http://laineygossip.com/John_Krasinski_at_the_Superbowl.aspx

Here are some tidbits:

"The best hotness is the kind that takes you by surprise. Sure - he's cute in that college backpack kinda way but - at least for me on tv - not in that rip your panties passion. Until you see him in person.In person, cute becomes quiver. In person there's a quiet confidence that gets real sexy real fast. Especially since he is still a regular dude. No entourage, no handlers... Just John and his dad.

...John is not pretty. His nose is probably a little more bulbous than it should be and he doesn't have the best hair but there's a super chill vibe about the way he walks - a gait that implies he'd know what to do with you when no one's around and large soft looking hands and clean fingernails and when he stopped to take photos he would easily slip his arm around your waist, resting it just above the hip...it all makes for a fresh laundry scented fantasy. Or on a rug in front of the fireplace after a night of dvds and cheetos...

...He took his hat off and gave it to someone and showed off some awful hat head. Of course he didn't care. Rare a man who doesn't care about his hair. Even my husband cares about his hair. And he is the most style un-friendly, fashion backwards dude you can find. But John Krasinski didn’t care about his hair. Love, love, love. We made eye contact twice. I want to say ten seconds but it was more like three....several fans asked to have their picture taken… he obliged every time. With a smile and that arm around the waist. Sigh."

Although, I must disagree with the "John is not pretty" statement, and here is some evidence to back me up:

Baby Spice's baby...

How adorable is Baby Spice Emma Bunton's baby Beau!?, although...

...he's not quite as cute as Jim:

"What has one thumb and loves Ani-time? This guy!"

(hmm, exactly where is that other hand?)

If you all haven't noticed- I am obsessed with Jim. So I am issuing a challenge. Just post a comment about any pop-culture related topic and I will write a post about it and somehow link it to Jim or John Krasinski. Bet you can't stump me...

Jim/Brad...

Never mind the Brangelina baby rumours (although congrats to them and Gwen Stefani too), I'm just loving Brad's shaggy new 'do!

Although, is it just me or does it look a little familiar?

I guess I'm not the only Jim fanatic, huh Brad? (I know, i know-there are many a Jim fan out there!)

Now if only Jim/John Krasinski would grow a bit of facial scruff like Brad I could die a happy girl...

Random 'the Office' goodness...

Here are some cute ads the cast of 'the Office' did for Puma awhile ago. Enjoy...





And no fair...

I want an 'I Heart Jim' mug!

What's your formula for a perfect mate? Don't be shy, I showed you mine...

Just a taste...

After my last post, I feel like posting something frivolous, so here is just a bit of random yumminess for all you straight/bi ladies and gay/bi men...enjoy....

JAM envy

Ok, so I'm a huge Office fan. To be specific, I'm a huge Jim and Pam (JAM) fan. To get even more specific, I am totally head-over-heels crazy-in-love with Jim Halpert! I mean, I know he is a fictional television character, but he is more three-dimensional, lovably flawed and human than some actual humans beings i know! What woman wouldn't love their very own Jim Halpert? Everytime he looks at Pam with those big, longing eyes I melt into a puddle. I hate Pam because Jim loves Pam, but I love Pam for showing that guys like Jim long for girls like Pam, insecure and quiet and sweet and plain. I mean, who of us hasn't wanted someone they thought they couldn't have. Jim and Pam give me hope. Hope that the Jim's of the world notice us Pam's, and secretly want to be with us as much as we want to be with them.
