Saying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan.

...but I was coming around to the belief that whether you liked it or not, things happen and once they start happening you pretty much just have to hold on for dear life and see where they drop you when they stop.
