Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

Because books.
It's okay!
I will say, though, sports offers a lot of opportunities for watching very athletic, very lovely men in action, and in sometimes nicely tight uniforms. Just so you know.

My old seats were behind the bullpen, close to where the players stretched out before a game, and I can attest to Amy's assertations. Lovely, indeed.

"We have trust issues." Mylar
Just this once, and only this once, I love Baseball because the fact that the All Star game preempted SYTYCD meant that I got to meet...Nigel Lythgoe! Y'all, Nigel Lythgoe was on my plane tonight. Squeeeee! And I got to say hello to him and thank him for putting SYTYCD on my TV and providing such a great forum for dancers. I kind of had to say something to him after I stopped right in front of his seat in first class while I was on my way back to my coach seat waiting for folks to put their bags in the overhead bins, looked down at his familiar face and then heard his very British voice ask the flight attendant for water, and promptly exclaimed quite loudly "Oh my god!"
Hey, it was a shock. He laughed, though. I imagine he gets crazy dance fans shouting "Oh my god" at him a lot.

I am not normally star struck. But this time, I was like a kid meeting Santa for the first time. Very cool indeed. It could've only been better if Miss Debbie Allen had been traveling with him. Alas, it was just some anonymous blonde chippie. Oh, well. Next time.
Oh, anonymous blonde chippie was not an ex-contestant. Believe me, I peeped it out. But at least Nigel is consistent.
