My New Prize Possession

So I like soccer, specifically the MLS. I go to most of the games here, and Greg and I watch others on TV. A good friend of ours does rehabilitation for one of the MLS teams. I was chatting with him on the phone the other day and the conversation started out talking about moving a piano or somesuch, and ended with him telling me that last time he was in L.A. working the soccer game, he asked if he could get Landon Donovan's jersey for me. Who is Landon Donovan, you might ask? Shame on you. He is one of my favorite MLS players, is on the National Team, and has gone to the World Cup several times. Oh, and he looks like this.


This was actually removed from his body and given to my friend to give to me.


And now it's on my body. According to the transitive property of Geometry, I think that pretty much means we've touched bodies.

Shame on YOU. What would Greg think? Actually, I'm thinking Greg might just traipse around the house in it when you're not around.

Mr. Donovan looks like a darker, though slightly balding version of Heath Ledger. Not bad. Not bad at all.

Never heard of this guy and know nothing about soccer, but how fun that you have one of his shirts! It's nice to have friends with connections :)

Okay, few things:

1. Greg probably walks around in nothing but that shirt whenever possible.

2. Landon Donovan is really about the same size as you, Runaround Sue!

3. Heath Ledger?!? Are you kidding me, Rachel? You do know he's been butt naked with another man, don't you?

That is so cool! I love soccer too and I might add that he is pretty good looking. Totally jealous.
