I want to marry Dr. Iain Stewart
witty? check.
from Scotland? check.
hot-hot-hot brogue? check.
excellent "teacher"/interesting? check.
doctor, but not the douchebag kind? check.
brilliant in a subject i surely would've flunked? check.
uses metaphors that usually involve chocolate or cookies? check.
proclivity to wear collared dress shirts (albeit unironed) when americans would don a tee? check.
oh my. i think i've got a wee crush. i've been watching Hot Rocks: Geology of Civilization for a few hours now and I can't bring myself to get off the couch and get shit done, since it would mean missing edifying Iain, whose specialty is Greek and Turkish earthquakes. right now he's explaining why my hero Caligula was so mad (lead in the wine, lead in the food, lead in the makeup of the women he sucked face with). sigh. smart boys? me-OW.
see? i occasionally break my "only-brown-boys" rule. ;)

Ohhhh thats like my hots for Jeff Corwin on Animal Planet. That boy is yummmmyyy

-I believe I'm safe in saying I speak for the other 2.5 billion of us when I say, "Woohooo!"

Everyone can use a little cream in their coffee. I'm a living and breathing testament to the fact, being half Desi.
My Irish Mother turned to the Dark Side, and one day, Dr. Stewart might too. Don't give up hope.

sometimes rules are worth breaking if they involve hot, smart boys who use metaphors involving chocolate!

Um... ladies? I just caught this show on the tube. Are you all smokin' banana seeds? He's a swell and charming man, for certain. His charm amplified, no doubt, by his unique combination of wisdom and dashing youth; but hot? I need to come up with a few of my own chocolate metaphors I guess.

hey, i never commented on his looks-- they are irrelevant whenver a boy starts passionately expounding on something scientific, thus making the confusing clear for this poli-sci major. and if he does so in a scottish accent? HOT.
i like how he teaches about tectonic plates by mashing cookies in to each other, or uses caramel to approximate magma. mmmm, caramel. ;)

I like the way you think, Anna. You are a suitable girl, after all. Okay, I'll stop trespassing your diary now. Mike is signing out. And, *poof*! ... into oblivion!
Posted by: Mike | 2006.04.18 at 04:32 PM
Yeah, I can break my "no geoscientists" rule for that one. Actually, I'm more in lowe with the fact that they have a hot, hot rocks show on cable than anything else.
GEOLOGY ROCKS! w00t. (Nerd out.)

Marry Dr Iain Stewart? Crossed my mind too, girlfriend. Let's not fight about it though, he's got a wife and two kids! Smart man, good looks, Scot, GSOH AND wants to settle down- check. Now also check the box for unavailable too.

Yes, I'm marrying my own Scottish geologist. And I didn't even know I had a thing for them until I moved to Scotland. And let me tell you, they taste as good as they look!

You wouldn't want to marry any of the lecturers at Plymouth university...trust me! He is already married anyway, they all are!

Very cool guy. My question is what brand/kind of shoes is he always wearing? Really unique, and want to find out what they are.
