A certain guy has been on my mind all day.  I smile every time he comes into my thoughts.

He sent me a picture yesterday.  I’ve placed in on the corner of my computer screen to alleviate my need to visit my email box every few hours for a look. 

I’m smitten.  He’s adorable – well, adorable by my standards, which probably aren’t the norm.  I’m attracted to tall, skinny guys with glasses – if they happen to have a visible scar, so much the better.  This guy is tall, skinny with glasses – he’s also funny, smart and creative – in a word, adorable. 

I don’t know how he feels about me – probably reason numero uno he’s on my mind so much.  We met briefly and we’ve been emailing inconsistently since.  He’s been on the East Coast for a holiday visit, but, from my perspective, his trip has been interminable.  In actuality, it’s only been 2 1/2 weeks.  He’s coming home this weekend. Finally!

I want him to ask me out on a date – break this uncertainty.  On the other hand, this uncertainty breeds my desire.  There’s been times I have met someone who made me think, “wow!”, only to be disappointed with the reality.  I think everyone does it – we fill in the unknown with our own suppositions of this person’s character to meet our desires.  The reality is much less attractive.

But I want to know him – I cannot remain in this grey area much longer. My impatience is strong.  Ask me out, damn it!
