Yes, there are baseball geeks(My fake newsguy boyfriend is totally one) There is nothing that happened on any diamond, anywhere, that he won't take an interest in. Which leads me to know, despite total lack of sportliness, that Honus Wagner is the most Expensive Baseball Card In The Woorld! Susan, do you watch "Countdown"! You should. Really. Sorry...couldn't resist. The fact that he can also do that for Lincoln--Douglass is an attractive bonus.
Wesley: All right. I'm going to let you all in on something you may have trouble comprehending. I assure you however-- Gunn: Vampires are real. Wesley: I was telling!

Susan, do you watch "Countdown"! You should. Really.
It's on the long list of "things I'm sure I'd enjoy, only I barely have time for TDS, Colbert, and The Office when they're not out on strike, plus the M's in season and Auburn football when televised."

You'd like it. And, luckily, he's not striking. Or in a few months, I'd be crazier than I am.ETA: It's funny how often he will bring some political issue back to some story about Ty Cobb. If I didn't fancy him, I'd probably be annoyed about that, actually. But as it is, I'm kind of like "One of us! One of us!" And for a single guy, he knows shitloads about Harry Potter, too.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Hanging with my visiting Mom, which includes a daytrip to Santa Barbara to have brunch with J's parents, a movie, and going to the lefty Episcopal church in Pasadena.
