star guy

Cloudy. Checked out the Perseid meteor shower on Friday night. Saw some nice ones. Went to the dentist yesterday, and the dental assistant asked me if I'd seen any meteors.
I said, "I'm kind of an amateur astronomer. Don't get me started."
She said,"That's what I heard. When you came in, one of my co-workers pointed you out, and said you were the star guy."
Nobody has ever called me the star guy before.

  2. funny, i've heard you called many things this week, but "star guy" was not one of them. i have heard "crazy uncle jim", "my odd son", "quite a character" and my personal favorite, "the weirdest person i've ever met".
