We call this “Dinner Guests” at our house, i.e. the famous people we would like to have over for dinner some time. Preferably all at once. My current list includes:

• Maura Tierney
• Stephen Merchant
• Leisha Haley
• Li-Young Lee
• Killer Mike
  

no, it’s a different game altogether! i don’t want these people to come over to my house once. i want to be able to call them and say, “hey do you want to go get bubble tea and then come over and watch my tivo’ed episode of battlestar gallactica?” i don’t want to have to cook or dress up for these relationships. stephen merchant! stephen merchant means i’m buying at least one bottle of wine.
