Last June, I blogged about a little crush I had on a Jeopardy contestant back in high school:
Ahhh, Matt Morris. Yep, there he is in all his Teen Tournament glory. And there I am, in all my awkward high school glory. I thought he was so cute, and it seemed totally normal that my mom would snap a picture of me posing next to him on TV. Totally normal.
Well, last weekend I received an email that caught me by surprise:
Wait... WHAT? So let me get this straight: Matt Morris read my blog? He saw that awkward, stalkerish picture? I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. In the end, I decided to laugh, and I laughed HARD. And then just when I didn't think it could get more ridiculous or embarrassing, I got a follow-up email from the girl who dated him:
Wait, wait, wait. WHAT?! Seriously? I had to use my excellent stalker skills to find his Facebook profile. Sure enough...
Lovely. When I asked Gary what he thought about his wife's picture on some guy's Facebook page, he said, "What is... disturbing?!" Ha ha! I think it's hilarious. I can guarantee you that 18 years ago when that picture was taken, I never thought it would be on Facebook, I never thought I'd be blogging about it, but most of all, I never in a million years thought Matt Morris would ever see it.
Hey, Matt Morris: What is... a restraining order? :) Just kidding!
