i fell in love with a boy over christmas. actually, i was in love with him for awhile and just didn't realize it. but that's a different story for a different day.
yesterday i fell in love, briefly, with the man who blew me a kiss on the way to work. it was, in the moment, a selfless gesture that restored some kind of humanity in me. it jarred me out of my monotonous walk to work along the gray sidewalks. it was beautifully simple. it was purely a compliment. one that i desperately needed. in retrospect, it was also slightly creepy and whatever. but i'll take it with a childlike innocence like a kiss on the cheek from a grandfather - it's only creepy if you're looking to be a skeptic.
an exchange i enjoyed recently:
girl: you're a glass-half-empty kinda guy, aren't you?
guy: what glass?
i decided to stay here a little longer, in this city, in this job. perhaps i haven't given it a fair shot.
