A story from the shrink--worth reading, even though I'm not the best storyteller.
One of our interns here at the office is attractive. I had mentioned this fact to a couple of my coworkers. But I did not tell the intern in question about this, because I didn't want to make him uncomfortable. Plus, I'm married, so who the hell cares who I think is attractive, right?
Wrong. One of my other coworkers heard about my little crush through the grapevine. He offered to take my picture with the cute intern at our last staff party. I declined the offer, saying that it would be "embarrassing for everyone involved." I thought that was the end of that. Wrong again. My coworker printed a little sign that says, "These pictures are for you, Matt. Are we embarrassed yet?" And then took pictures of the intern holding the signs and sitting at my desk. He delivered the pictures to me this morning. (And yes, I'm plenty embarrassed.) I don't know if I should be embarrassed or frightened. On to other news, this New York Times article details some of the problems that sex researchers are having with a conservative government. The article speaks for itself, so I'll refrain from commenting. |
