I had a rare sighting, today. I had a sighting of "someone who, if they just randomly asked me out, I'd totally go." He was just my type, which is a definition I had been searching for forever, but now, having found it, I know exactly why. See, my first love was when I was four years old (the year every thing happened) in the British Isles. I feel in love with an older boy, M, and proceeded to follow him around like a small puppy for the remainder of the vacation. M, for an what I believe was an almost teenager at the time, was tall, sandy haired and strong. Oh the dreams I have had about sandy haired men. Oh the false starts I've made with them.

But, here I was, wandering through the misery making rain with my small dog, Sprocket, when what do I see? The most handsome man alive, that's what. Blonde, strong and sitting in a Greenwood Village landscaping truck with his smart phone.

You see, Sprocket and I had been walking our usual walk along the outside of the lake. I had been struggling for the longest time to keep him from eating goose poop and the half-melted crabapples that dotted the ground when I realized that we had been blocked off. We could go forward, but we couldn't go back. So I continued up to the truck and was going to ask if it was all right if I walked through the barrier. Then my brain went mushy for a little while. I smiled a lot. He smiled a lot. And before I knew it, my automated self had completed the conversation and I was headed for the barrier! No automatic self! Find a new script! There must be a script wherein I say, "hey so #?"

But no... not really. I mean, do onto others, right? And I really am not a big fan of being "asked out" at work. I mean... its only happened... oh every so often, but it had just happened to me yesterday (cue drunk 50+ guy) and I was like "come on..." So, I keep walking. Goodbye sandy haired man!

Maybe the universe will rearrange itself in your favor and you'll meet him again. :P

Haha, I think I've actually played Ticket to Ride... it's that one where you have to build a railroad or something, right?

There's also this card game, Love and Happiness in an Age of Ruin, which interests me, but I don't have people to figure it out and play with at the moment.
