So, today was an excellent day for beautiful boys. I don't know why, but I'm seeing blond boys all over the place again. Perhaps they return in the spring, like swallows to capistrano. I saw one getting coffee ahead of me in line--not much taller than me, cute and preppy, and probably younger. Nearly bumped into another leaving the store--much taller and older, but still cute. And walking home, honestly it seemed like every half a block there was another one. I like this weather if it makes the boys come out. In the physical non-closet sense.

It's the idea of Harlan as Bender that really gets me laughing.

I've suggested take out pizza in the park up in Dupont. And he said yes.

Oh, so weird. At lunch, talking about K, and he says something about someone from K applying for a job there at one point. I want to ask so badly who it was, but I figure if he'd remembered the name he would have mentioned it. So I don't say anything till later, when I'm explaining that everyone in the world has a connection to K College (Oh, but I don't, you're saying. Sure you do. Me!), and that I'll always be asked, "Oh, do you know X from class of Y." and how, so long as Y falls between 1996 and 2002, I've got a ridiculously high likelihood of knowing them. So he says, "Matt Washcuk." "Oh my god," says me. See, Matt was part of my periphery of friends--friend of friends, in the same social circles, just connected through others, not directly to me. Very odd, I know. I love K, have I mentioned that?

Woohoo! Yay me. 7 projects in to the workplan and I've caught a bug or such in the language. It's changing 9s into 8s. So it says things like, "the first national literacy tests in 1882." Or the 1886 NAEP Assessment data or changes project numbers. Man I'm glad I'm not a programmer. :) And I saw this in finals of the last workplan, just not until everything had all been printed out and too late. So now they're off figuring out how it can be right in the database, but wrong in the word document. :)

Oh my god, cute boys again! They're like all out of the woodwork or something. Billy, the maintenance guy was talking with the security guy when I left this evening, and he's cute even if I'm pretty sure he's not someone to look for deep conversations with. He's all blond and sooooo cute. I hate trying to describe why boys are cute. they are. I mean, some it's eyes or smiles or the way they hold their head or that they were laughing when you caught their eye. It's not always something I can label, it just is.

And! The cute guy from the CD store was crossing the street at the same time as me, and totally recognized me. :) I love being recognized. And the other day I saw the boy from the book store walking up New Hampshire, and I really should have said something since we were standing on the corner together, but it's so random to tell someone that you recognize them because you remember their tattoos. But next time I will, cause he's cute in a seventies hippie biker kinda way.
