Eye Candy

I'm a lucky girl. Remember those diet Coke commercials where the ladies spend their lunch breaks watching the hot construction workers while sipping a diet coke? Well, minus me drinking the diet Coke, that's how I spend a good portion of my day...staring out the window. The stable for the downtown carriage ride horses is located right behind my work. I love watching the "stable hands/cowboys" (p.s. I'm setting the scene for a sleazy romance novel) handle the animals. These guys are very rugged, strong and mysteriously GOOD LOOKING. One of these days I'm going to summon enough courage to start a conversation with one of them. My opening line will probably be something like "SO...how do you tame these wild stallions?" AND he'll reply with something like "Well...let me take you out on a date and I'll show you." Teehee.

Oh, AND I have a HOT FedEx delivery man. Um...he's Australian! And you KNOW how I dig guys with accents. Well, on Friday I was lucky to be up at the front desk when he came in. He was carrying several packages, so many he was holding the top one down with his chin. My first thought was "YES, here comes the hot delivery man". My second thought was "Wow, look how he carries ALL those packages so effortlessly." I decided I could help him out by opening the third door for him. As he walked by I said "Wow...I'm so impressed." He said (in his sexy accent) "Oh...it's nothing...I do it all day." He handed me the pen tool to sign for the packages and I thought for a split second I should drop it and do the Bend and Snap. That for sure would reel him in (I have a killer Bend and Snap). But I didn't, I signed for the packages, smiled and he was on his way. I sensed he wanted to stay and chat but you know how they have those strict schedules to keep to. Teehee.

I love hearing your stories! Hey Dave works right next to the stables too...or where ever they keep the carraige horses. Do you by chance work in that old red brick building? Also, I still must come see you...what street do you live on?

You are so funny I love reading your blog. It was so great seeing you at the shower. I felt like I didn't get to talk to you much. (maybe because I was worrying about playing the stupid measuring game jk)

Should have used the Bend and Snap! What's the use of having such a talent if you never use it?!
