Brain Boy
Jul 6, 2007 at 12:15 PM I'm at Starbucks right now working away, and a smelly guy is sitting next to me. He's not "b.o." smelly, but more like "the shirt I'm wearing was laying on an old mildewy towel" smelly or "wearing the same clothes that I wore to a Chinese restaurant last night" smelly.
But here's the thing... he's kinda cute and he's reading from some kind of medical book, studying a diagram of a brain. I'm looking at the top of the page and it says... "Interior root of the Ansa Cervicalis."
Maybe he's a brain surgeon. Or a medical student studying to be brain surgeon.
My point is this: Maybe I should overlook brain boy's smelly clothes. Maybe he just needs a good woman to take care of him and do his laundry. I'm not saying I'd do his laundry, but I'd pick up the phone and find us a good maid who would.
Oops... I just made myself laugh. Not because I think I'm funny... I'm just giddy with excitement at the possibility of a new love interest.
Ooh! Brain boy just looked at me.
I smiled at him. He smiled back. Now he's back to the book.
He's definitely younger than me, which is fine. I recently watched "Prime" and "How Stella Got Her Groove Back" and could totally handle a sexy young thing.
Hmmm... now my mind is wandering. If I could pick any sexy young thing, I'd pick Paolo Nutini. I'd lay his sweet little head on my bosom and stroke his floppy hair, and he'd look up at me with his big brown puppy dog eyes and sing me a song. Then he'd kiss me with his pillowy soft lips...
I sound like a teenage boy in a locker room... Sorry.
Is this something that happens to women after 30? That they find barely-legal guys simply irresistible? Because I find myself checking out bag boys and walking by Abercrombie & Fitch an awful lot lately.
Kidding. Really, I am.
Back to brain boy... He just stood up and is kinda short. I'm not big on short guys. I'm not looking for a giant, just someone taller than me. Okay, I'm over him.
Gosh, I ramble... what was the purpose of this post? I totally forgot. Oh well.

i've always wanted to date a brain surgeon.
wishful thinking.
This post cracked me up, especially the "sexy young thing" comment. After having a tryst with a 22 year old (I'm 29), well, trust me, they're fun! At least we're not old enough to be cougars :)
This has to be anonymous. I had an affair with one of my students last year. (We were both consenting adults, btw, I'm not a perv.)
Oh my, it was FUNNNN!!!
Go for it. They don't really know what they're doing, but they're willing to learn! 10yrs younger is fun for a tryst. 5yrs younger is perfect for a relationship (I had one of those, too).
I'd like the best of the young and the best of the old. Wouldn't we all? *sigh*
You are too funny girl!!
Poor smelly brain guy. He probably just had to do five surgeries and it is just that brain smell on him.
bleck.
Rebecca, what's a cougar? I don't know, but I kind of wanna be one. It sounds really sassy.
You should watch "Age of Love." Sex kittens = 20-somethings; Cougars = 40-somethings. They are having a competition for tennis player Mark Philippousissippi's heart. It's kind of awesome, but obvious that one of the 20-something's are going to win.
Yes, I know that's not how you spell his last name.
Karyn...it's not just '30 somethings'. There are so few 'decent' guys around, even for a girl in her early twenties, and that whole 'teaching them something new' as opposed to the older guys 'i am so good you will never change me' is just so refreshingly horny...
Only ever fun for a tryst, like anonymous says :) They have no moral fiber that young.
Karyn-from Urban Dictionary:
An older woman who frequents clubs in order to score with a much younger man. The cougar can be anyone from an overly surgically altered wind tunnel victim, to an absolute sad and bloated old horn-meister, to a real hottie or milf. Cougars are gaining in popularity -- particularly the true hotties -- as young men find not only a sexual high, but many times a chick with her shit together.
"That cougar I met last night, showed me shit I didn't know existed, I'm goin back for more."
I love this post. So funny! That smell though, is kind of hard to get used to. I used to work next to a lady who smelled like this on a daily basis. I think it's from your clothes not completly drying. Ugghh!
