DHP Brains

I finally got off my lazy behind, put on my big girl panties and chose a winner for the What Was David Hyde Pierce Thinkin’ contest.

It was hard.

Only-have-one-cupcake-left-and-have-a-guest-over hard.

So thank you.

Because if it wasn’t for you, I’d never have discovered the true thoughts of my one true love.

Before I show you the winner, here are a few runners-up that made me wish I had a dozen Michaels gift cards to give away.

(A few weeks before the contest I uploaded the photo, thought bubble included, to Flickr. Kyknoord‘s comment “Braaaaaaaains” made me laugh every time I logged into my photo account for over a week. So though he didn’t include it in the post’s comments, I felt compelled to share it with all of you.)

DHP Excited Face

Erica C’s entry made me realize that everyone has their own excited face.

Though he didn’t include the all-important pointer finger, David Hyde Pierce gives good excited face.

DPH Sign

I love Alex.

And not just because she understands the basis of my and David’s relationship.

DPH Dan

If this contest had a “Most Improved” category, then Megan‘s suggestion would definitely have won.

Her entry stayed the same level of awesome – it just took me about four reads before I realized the viewable segment of David’s Sundance shirt reads “Dan.”

I’m not actually worthy of judging your hilarious entries.

I’m sorry.

Before I reveal the winner, I should share the members of the top-secret voting cabal – me, my mom, Skye and Lindsey. Having just returned from an afternoon at a USO open house, I ambushed everyone with their required participation in contest judging. Everyone read the list of suggested thoughts (with authors’ names removed) and put a star next to the ones they loved.

Having starred quite a few myself, I was surprised to get my laptop back and discover only one entry received three stars.

DPH Diamond

Though my preference towards entries referencing ’80s movies was a joke, CDG‘s brilliant integration was too perfect to resist.

Or a secret attraction to Bender just blindsided us all.

Have I told all of you lately that I love you?

What Was David Hyde Pierce Thinkin'?

I’m just a gal, sitting at a computer, waiting for David Hyde Pierce to discover he loves me.

I’m sure he’ll realize we’re destined for each other any day now.

Right?

But until then, I’ll have to settle for amusing myself by setting you all loose on his thoughts.

The prize?

A $25 gift card to Michaels.

The rules?

Leave your suggestion for DHP’s thoughts in the comments – only one submission per person, please!

Entries will close at midnight, Eastern time.

Then I’ll choose my favorite based on hilarity, cleverness, spiritualism, references to ’80s Brat Pack movies, and spiciness.

Or maybe just whichever one takes my mind off the fact that I haven’t shaved in a few weeks, though I wear skirts to work every single day.

It’s not pretty,

Megan

La Bete marquis

Pay no attention to the musical down the street.

I love  David Hyde Pierce.

Other gals dream of Justin Bieber or Leonardo DiCaprio or Marky Mark.

I think – I’m not really up on who’s hot nowadays.

When I learned David was starring in a satire with another one of my loves, Mark Rylance, I started planning my trip and counting my pennies and stamping down my stalking instinct.

La Bete was hilarious and unique and in rhyming verse. I didn’t think I would enjoy a rhymed play, but over the course of the show I came to love it.

So if you ever meet me in real life and I speak only in rhyme, you’re prepared.

One of the many reasons to be hesitant to meet me,

Megan
