“Who’s the newf’s celebrity freebie?”
“Zac Effron.”
“Ha! What about you?”
“The newf’s brother.”
Now, some of you may suggest that coveting others while in a committed relationship is inappropriate, doubly so should that other be a member of your partner’s close family. I, on the other hand, would like to propose that lusting after the newf’s younger (my age), gym-going, strong and silent type brother is simply a testament to my appreciation for their family genetics.
I mean, they look very similar…it would be silly to pretend that I didn’t notice the double-trouble hotness that was sitting in my living room mere hours ago. I’m not even kidding. It also doesn’t hurt that the brother’s biceps are bigger and his accent is thicker. He said – and the people who are familiar with the deliciously festive folks from Newfoundland will get this – “Google it, ‘by!” and I swear I had to divert all my mental capacity to keep myself from suggesting the two of them wrestle Ancient Greek style in a tub of pudding.
Well…the tub of pudding is more MTV-style but it’s all good.
I’m thinking about sending the mother-in-law a thank you card or a job well done present or something.
