Day 255: I keep getting older.. and they stay the same age

Count them... one.. two... three... yes... four Jaguars I passed on the way into work this morning.

It's not unusual for me to pass one Jag on the way into work, but four?! That's just crazy talk. It's a 10 mile commute and it's not like I'm driving through the Hamptons.

I can't help but wonder if it's the universe giving me a clue in my Cinderella story.

Not that I think the following has anything to do with the Cinderella prediction, but I can't quite figure out why I keep running into the Report Guy.

Today we nearly had a head on collision as I was getting ready to go into the control room.

Once inside, I looked over... and there he was, I think to myself 'Who is this guy? And why does it seem like he's following me?'

I know he's not following me, but I have no idea why he keeps showing up where I am.

That is, I didn't know until a co-worker walked in and introduced him to the rest of us as her intern.

Well of course he is... they just keep getting younger what is going on? I feel like Mathew McConaughey in the movie 'Dazed and Confused' when he says 'I keep getting older.... and they keep staying the same age.'

Today was a little unusual in the control room. Usually there are a few boys, but today it was all girls and the Report Guy was eating it up.

He kept bouncing around from one girl to the next, including me, and everyone of us turned into a giddy schoolgirl. 'Do you want to see what I do?'

Looking back at it, it was pretty funny. No matter how young or old we are we all just wanted him looking over our shoulder.

Well, except for our director who told him he was in her personal bubble and he needed to move back. It was hysterical, because we all know that about her and we were waiting for it to come out.

The day continued, and it was all I could do to get to the long holiday weekend... which I was going to kick off with dinner and drinks with the Coffee Fairy.

On my way to meet her at the steakhouse, she texted and said 'I'd like you to marry our waiter, his name is Travis. He's the perfect cubbie for you.'

I had to laugh, but I was also intrigued... so I replied 'Good to know. Get him primed and ready for me!'

When I got there I had to agree, he was adorable, but still very young. All that keeps going through my head is 'I keep getting older... and they stay the same age.' I have no idea why I am all of the sudden now increasingly attracted to and twitterpated by younger guys. It's so strange... maybe it's hormones.

Dinner was great, I think I'm eating my way through the weekend. A big steak, covered with bleu cheese, and wrapped in bacon... oh and a twice baked potato. And yes, I ate every last bite!

The food was only rivaled by the great conversation. When the Coffee Fairy and I get together the conversations always get 'deep'.

But tonight's conversation snuck up on us. We checked the time at about 8:30, about the time we were getting ready to leave I looked again and it was midnight!

Seriously? It felt like we just just blinked and we lost 3 1/2 hours. It was really, really bizarre, but nice.
