So, on this, the 25th anniversary of my first concert ever, I scored myself some tickets to see these three guys in December.
I know you were all just dying to know how that turned out. Now you can rest easy. ETA: They've sold out a few locations already, so apparently I'm not the only nutcase out there. Good to know.
But it got me thinking about things I geek out about and it made me wonder if it's more than the average person. Like, it made me realize I have a lot of...hobbies. You totally thought I was going to say "issues," didn't you. WELL.:
Other Things I've Been Known to Dork Out Over:
- The Yankees (obviously, but this is also like knowing how to speak another language, so it should probably get more credence than just Geeking Out)
- The Weather
- The Olympics
- Young adult literature
- Anything to do with "old" music (i.e. predating 1994), particularly finishing lyrics like it's my job or something (I really kind of wish it WAS. How much would that rule?).
- Horse racing
- Putting together furniture. You got some IKEA stuff that needs assembling? I'm your gal.
- Christmas
- Period pieces (I liked Masterpiece Theatre looooong before Downton Abbey. Like, 20 years longer. Just to FYI)
- The 80s
- American Idol (for now, anyway. We'll see after this season)
- Real estate (no, really, House Hunters - loooooong before it was cool to watch it - and those free real estate guides in the supermarket are like my crack)
- The following TV shows: Mad Men, Breaking Bad, Friday Night Lights
So there you go. Now you should never be surprised if you see me blogging about building a bookcase with an unpronounceable Scandinavian name during a blizzard while a House Hunters marathon is on...God, that sounds like a great day.
