X? Not so much.

So unless I decided to mention something X-rated here, which I won't, because I'm not that kind of girl, this post has nothing to do with the letter X. However, today Darren pointed out to me that I missed the birthday of my favorite baseball player. I am shamefaced. So, here's to you Joe. Happy Birthday. I love you.

p.s Jill, I feel like this should count as X anyways. At least I mentioned it.

W

Love.

It's so elusive.

And let's be real. Dating sucks. Some of us can use all the help we can get.

For that reason (among others) I am grateful for

the Wingman.

To those who are willing to take one for the team so your buddy can live the dream...

Thank you.

Your selfless service makes the world a better place.

...and...

"W" runner up: wikipedia.

I've tried to avoid doing too many posts with multiple things, but I can't not give a shout out to the blessing that is wikipedia.org.

Yes, it is helpful for quickly briefing legal cases you will be called upon to discuss in class.

Yes, it is a perfect quick-reference when you're wondering if Amy Adams' hair is naturally red, or need help explaining to your roommates why Song of the South was never fully released on home video in the United States.

Yes. It is awesome.

Here's a sampling of recently read wikipedia articles:

-Sweet Valley Twins

-List of animals with fraudulent diplomas

-The Ides of March

-Snapple

-Grantor Retained Annuity Trusts

-The Wonder Years

I just have so much more to say about all of these things. But I won't. Not here, not now. Wikipedia just enriches my life.

And in other W news: my waterpolo team is in the championship tomorrow night. Just saying.
