remember the scene in clueless when cher is sitting in class bored to death and the door opens and everything moves in slow motion? christian walked in and sat near her and she was instantly smitten - she couldn't take her eyes off him. that was me today when a new columbian boy joined our class. he's tall and lanky and looks like a columbian would - not the drug lord kind, the other kind. he has shaggy hair and... a beard? but it's not like a full-on beard that someone in north dakota would grow in the winter. much cooler. anyway, he sat at my table, right across from me, so i could do nothing but look at him. in fact, it felt awkward to look away. we smiled shyly at each other and then a cool breeze came in from the window and passed over him towards me; a breeze and a big whiff of cigarette smoke. a smoker. of course. crush killed. it lasted all of 13 seconds - the longest crush i have had in about 4 years...
well, anyway, as an honor to clueless, and to see how smart my friend dave is, here is the actual movie trailer from clueless (for those of you who don't know, christian is the guy who picks up her pen about halfway through - her crush lasted slightly longer: until she found out he was gay):

yeah i'm smart.
ReplyDeletealso, give the smoker a chance. B only had to kiss me for like 8 months until i quit. to be honest you'll get used it, they be fed up with it, but by that point you'll have enough power to make him chew mints like they were M&Ms until you can bear him.
it will be great.
hmmm... yeah, not so much. that's just my standard. couldn't if i tried. it's like some people have standards around teeth or BO. besides, i'm not sure i should get involved with someone who has an addictive personality (aside from the hubby, of course) because he might get addicted to me. we can't have that.
