nerd excitement

So yesterday as I putzed around on my computer I checked my myspace account. And I had an email so I checked it and it was from my favorite author, Chris Bohjalian. Yeah, I'm sure most of you haven't heard of him, but working in a bookstore for 5,6 years helps you get acquainted with authors most have never heard of. But it sent me on a wave of excitement and euphoria... I'm totally requesting him to be my friend.
