Sunshine, Go Away Today

"From now on, I'll connect the dots my own way." - Bill Watterson, Calvin and Hobbes

My name is Devan. I am 20 years old, and I am a journalism major. You can find a link to my more professional blog below.

One time I rode an escalator with John Cleese.

I’m not very demure or fashionable, and I’m far too much of a cynic, but I like 80’s movies and I like cats. The only coke I do is Diet. Sometimes the Midwest gets the best of me, and I just need to get out in the trees and water and air. I’d always rather be outside.

Even though my bagel addiction and South Floridian roots suggest Jewish heritage, I’m not religious. I like Legos and Star Wars and Doctor Who and The Most Interesting Man In The World.

I play the violin. I enjoy obscure references to classic music, literature and art.

When I can’t find a Diet Coke, I drink Arnold Palmers, and I adore Cameron Frye. I wear too much black, and I read too much Shakespeare. My mom was an extra in Caddyshack.

I have such a crush on this man. I’ve told the story a thousand times before, but during his first year in the majors with the Cards, I met him at spring training. He was a total gentleman, and he signed my hat. Ever since then, I’ve followed his career obsessively, and he’s become a hell of a ballplayer. What a guy.
