- i have seen him play live tons of times.
- i got a tattoo of some of his lyrics.
- i read any and every article he writes and interview he does.
- i held a viewing party when their (switchfoot) documentary released.
- i planned my vacation around his yearly festival on a beach in california.
- i stood and watched him sign autographs. (this is where the creepy comes in. i didn't want his signature what else was i supposed to do?)
and now i am adding that i purchased a longboard because of jon foreman.
do i know how to longboard?
no. no, i do not.
i am an idiot.
this guy started a custom longboard company and he put up a picture holding a longboard and had a switchfoot quote underneath it (not even on the board, just underneath the picture). so being the giant fangirl that i am, i emailed and asked how much it would be to get a board and literally told the guy that i was emailing because he used a jon lyric. he responded with the price and said that he had a giant man crush on jon. so obviously i ordered a board.
again, i am an idiot.
but the board is done and i'm picking it up tomorrow!
the guy burned the actual quote into the side of the board for me as a surprise which was incredibly thoughtful since that's the reason i bought the board in the first place.
mine is the love board- second from left

if you need to find me any time in the near future, i'll probably be the girl lying in the middle of the road, bleeding as i try to learn how to ride my new treasure.
