Ghost Hunter


His name is Steve Gonsalves. And I have the biggest crush ever on him.

He's on the show Ghost Hunters as part of an organization called The Atlantic Paranormal Society (TAPS). I've watched this show since the beginning, mainly because I've always been interested in the paranormal. I've had too many strange experiences to not be a believer.

This group, TAPS, investigates cases by request. They don't go in with some so-called medium who "senses" a presence. They go in with quality equipment and try to debunk claims of hauntings. Most of their cases can be explained logically, scientifically. But sometimes they do experience the paranormal. And that was why I got addicted to the show, their commitment to being real.

But then the more I watched the show, the more I started liking this guy, Steve. See, normally, I'd be frightened by the tattoos. I'd look at someone like him and think he was too tough for me. But through the magic and wonderment of television, I've gotten to see more than just the body art. Take a look at his picture again. Hot, right? But perhaps a little intimidating. Now, what if I told you that he's afraid of spiders? And heights? And flying? Does he seem more approachable now?

Okay, plus, he's a police officer. He's my age. And he had founded his own paranormal investigation group before he joined TAPS. Now I know he's more than someone who likes tattoos. He's smart, he's brave (fighting the unknown and common criminals!), and he's not a macho, tough guy.

Can you see why I have this massive crush on him? So before, I could have dismissed him as scary, if I didn't pay attention to the details. But now that I know more about him and am completely infatuated with him, I can see he's out of my league.

In conclusion, Steve: hot. Me: not. *sigh*

His arms seem abnormally large compared to his shoulders, but that just means he can give good hugs. I can totally see why you are attracted to him. (And you, too, are hot. Shut up, no butt!!)

April you equal sexy, and you know it!

I've always been a suck for a nice tat sleeve, myself. Yes'm.

CK, I'd take more than a hug from the ghost hunter. ;)

Meta, I don't know why, but your statement sounded really pornographic. haha

I'm not a fan of tattooed men, but I do understand how learning more about somebody's personality could definitely "ignite the bonfire of love." Metamorphose, did I get the wording right? ;)

OH. MY. GOODNESS. I DIDN'T MEAN TO WRITE SUCK!

I meant sucker.

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!

And yes, Rachel. You ignited that bonfire right.

I just figured you were shortening the word like you did with tattoo. Jack Black does it all the time... "Condish" for condition, "Posish" for position, etc. I try to incorporate Jack Black-isms into my daily life. :)

He has a very intense stare - I think he was mentally undressing me just now - I feel dirrrty.

April said...

An autograph...or a restraining order! ha ha

And he's only allowed to mentally (and physically) undress me. I get very territorial, ya know.

redlaw said...

You need to talk to Mr. "I-can-see-your-underwear-and-I-like-it" about who he allowed to undress with his eyes and not me - I am an innocent victim here, of course.

TOWR said...

Oh, heavens, that Jack Black is funny! Just reading April's comment I could hear see him in my saying, "On one condish..." with that crazy look in his eye and his lips all contorted and rouded with the SH sound.

To me, the look on Steve's face is saying, "Come on, honey. We'll take it nice and slooowww... Don't be scared. Let's make sweet, sweet love."
Er... I probably shouldn't have read his face...
