The Man-Crush, and the Fateful Confrontation That Was Actually Only Fateful In My Head

[guikc]

Here's my question. What use is work without the having of a ridiculous man-crush on one of your colleagues?

Yes, I have one. I considered having two, but decided against it. Thinking stupid goopy thoughts about one person you don't know well and never intend on really having a Fling with is taxing enough without having stupid goopy thoughts about

Hey...

Remind me to configure your phone for uploading to your e-mail, so you can take pictures of "K", or any other letter of the alphabet that may come within proximity of your bubble.

And now you have done that! And even left me instructions! You are the best teacher ever!

This is why I have phrases such as, "Not too bad, dude. How's it going?" set on auto, so I don't have to think about them when someone asks me something.

It's multi-functional, and I don't really have to think about the question they asked, for a few seconds.

I was rendered idiotic by the collision. I'll just claim whiplash. Or nipple-lash.

Since I don't make eye contact much anymore, when people come up to me while I'm working on the computer at work, using the auto-response "How's it going, dude?" gives me a few seconds to look up and see if I know who I'm talking to.

Unless it's a girl. They're icky, and I don't talk to them. They get the "One of those guys at the other end of the counter will help you."

It's worth considering his side. For all you know he meant to say "mmphrgh" and it came out as some sort of amiable greeting.

[guikc]

Well, look who's still alive. I was beginning to wonder (again). :)
I do consider his side. And his front. And his back.

Yeah yeah yeah, I wax, I wane. I stopped waning I guess, but I hear waxing hurts and I'm hairy. So I will try my best to do neither.

Oh my god, Becky! Maybe tomorrow you two can sit at the same lunch table! :)

I actually have one on one of the guys here at the office. I worked with him 7 years ago at an old job in Florida and now I work with him again in California.. only here, I actually had a romantically erotic dream about him. To make matters worse, he in my department now and I talk to him daily. And.. he's straight as an arrow.

[guikc]

All evidence points to K's straightness too.

I love this post. Love. This. Post. Especially since my own freezer encounter with...never mind.

Yes, Guido. I know just what you mean.

Your tale beats the snot right out of mine, though. I mean, damn.
