OK… obviously I loooove Brandon Routh. he couldn’t NOT be hot if he tried. HOWEVER, it really seems like he’s really trying to not be!!

for example, this past weekend he attended the Spike TV Video Game Awards -geek!- not that I have anything against video games, i once went on a 5-day GTA:VC bender (that’s grand theft auto: vice city for you non-dorks)! video games are great, they’re good, clean, fun no matter how violent and inappropriate! HOWEVER as i have pointed out on numerous occasions, Brandon could use a little less clean. ok, he could use a LOT less clean! here he is at the awards ceremony.

ok, let’s look at him objectively… great hair, charming smile, nice eyes, put it together it adds up to HOT - in a boy next door kinda way and there’s nothing wrong with that because you know he cleans up nice (remember all those suits & ties during the SR premier tour - oh how i miss those days).

now let’s talk about the outfit objectively… the t-shirt i hear is some reference to “world of warcraft”, his very favorite game - uber geek! really all i know of warcraft is from a recent episode of South Park, but if those guys are making fun of it, it must be really geeky. and the vest.. oi-vay the vest. well, like, every guy in my 9th grade class had one like it because after the members only craze was played out (yes, i’m that old) it was all about the ski vest.

then there are the pics of brandon at the awards with “the cheerleader.”

by the way “Heroes” totally rocks! it’s the best show on tv since the first season of Alias (and since we all saw how that turned out i’m not going to rave about it any further). and seeing this picture it occurs to me that brandon probably absolutely loves “Heroes” too, which may be the first and only thing he & i ( or is it me & him ??) have in common. and it also occurs to me how cute this concept is, Superman could certainly “save the cheerleader, save the world!” and it also occurs to me that i’d much rather see pictures like this than of his frickin’ fiancee hanging on him - and there are plenty of those pictures from the event too. =P

so this picture of the tall, good looking guy with the ski vest on, with his arm around the cheerleader totally gives me a flash-back to high school when i had a crush on the tall, good looking guy who was dating the cheerleader - his name was brett btw, not brandon, but really what’s the difference. unfortunately high school was really not the best time in my life, and basically it’s making it very difficult to retain this infatuation, this fascination, this fully grown-up, rated R, fantasy. i mean eventually i got over brett, who’s probably divorced and bald and broke now from paying all that child support. =(

maybe i should just avoid brandon until 2009 when he’s back in the cape (sigh).. oh well, it was hot while it lasted. and brandon, if and when you notice that the skin on my blog has changed and no longer has your face plastered all over it, please don’t think it means i don’t love you anymore. we’ve just grown apart, so i just think maybe it’s time i saw other people(’s pictures).

.. or maybe i should just watch my dvd again! i’ve been saving the “special features” for a special occasion - there’s a whole other disc i haven’t watched yet!
