a list of psuedo-celebrity crushes

  1. davy rothbart. creator of found magazine, insanely cute, interested in trash and in a way, eavesdropping. you might have also seen him on usa as part of their show us your character promotion. i would go trash-picking with davy any day.
  2. maxwell atoms. i only know three things about this man; he is cute, he created the grim adventures of billy and mandy, and he has the coolest last name ever. if i were to marry him, i would change my last name in a heartbeat.
  3. ira glass. but you knew that already. what is there not to love about ira? he's cute, he's super tall, and he does this american life which is quite possibly the greatest radio show ever created.
  4. in the same vein, i also love jonathan goldstein. for basically the same reasons, only he's not as tall as ira.
  5. m. ward. i love his music, and in interviews he sounds a lot like a boy i used to date who i liked very much. they have the same thick, curly hair and gravely voices that sound years older than they really are.
the importance of a good crush, whether in real life or not, cannot be underestimated. a crush can perk anyone up, can make any day feel better, and gives you something to look forward to. i'm a fan of the crush.

I love Found =D My sister and I have a wee collection of things we've found, but nothing *too* worthy yet. I haven't seen Mr. Rothbart on USA yet, which is surprising b/c my life in front of the tv pretty much consists of USA and their constant showings of SVU, hehe.
