Crush
Reason why I think I might be a literary snob - wannabe:
Today, while idle-chatting, a cousin mentioned Dan Brown and Distant Relative's boyfriend professed he had never heard of him. This happened after we discussed Chaucer, Milton and Jorge Luis Borges and I just wanted to grab and hug him. Finally! Someone who isn't part of THAT pack who is nuts about him. I wanted to steal him from Distant Relative there and then and make him mine. We could then live happily ever after in literary heaven.
'Cept it dawned upon me that I might not be good enough for him. Because even though I staunchly refuse to read The Da Vinci Code, I still do know who Dan fucking Brown is.
Damn.
Not good enough for the man of my dreams, as usual.
