The Count and Me

I was pleased to learn that I share a birthday with Sesame Street’s Count von Count. You, too, can find your match over at Flavorwire. His characteristics, off the top of my head: vampire, (not that scary, but at least not sparkly), obsessional counter, owner of a very nice automobile, lives in a castle. And he has a theme song. Overall, pretty good stuff. Unfortunately, the only thing I’m counting at the moment is the number of times I’ve been forced to listen to One Direction.
