Most people keep their brains between their legs

(an amusing quote from "Such a Little Thing Makes Such a Big Difference" by Morrissey)

Dear 21 year old, very cute male lab partner,

You have made me feel like a dirty old woman. I can't help but notice you're good-looking. And funny. I couldn't help feeling a little smug that you chose to sit near me instead of any number of cute little things in the class (in your FACE, cute little things!). I understand why: We are both serious about getting good grades and having fun in the process.

But goodness gracious, when I was talking about wearing jammies to school, whyyyyyy did you have to say, "My jammies are nothing, so I can't come to school in them"?

I managed to recover by truthfully stating, "Thanks. That put a mental image in my head that'll take forever to get out." And using a tone that conveyed sarcasm and disgust. My tone MAY have been a little off from the truth. Just a tad.

Thanks for the cheap thrills,
DH

PS. It would never work between us...but we'll always have *dramatic pause* playdough!

My request for a hot lab partner is in the post. I'm here! Been with family and had some deep meaningful thoughts about Threshold. All is sorted though!

HEHE

Funny note. Shall I write a story about the lab partner? I would like a copy of the note to distribute to several too-young-cuties as I see fit. Need I credit you in the PS section? (you see my grad school training has at least taught me how to credit sources).
