A note to the "cute'" girl in my 1st Amendment discussion, prior to our (potential)second encounter in lecture tomorrow:

Hello! How are you? I'm doing alright as well, despite the weeks' growth of facial hair I'm currently sporting. No, haha, I'm not going homeless, I'm trying to grow my sideburns out! Thanks for asking, though.

So... what's with all those nervous glances during discussion last week? I mean, you pretty much looked between me and the TA back and forth all freakin' class, or at least whenever you were talking. I'm a little confused as to the significance. I do have some theories, though:

a)There was a ghost behind my head. Ack! You should've told me! I hate ghosts.

b) I am sort of (VERY sort of) hip looking. You're from Seattle. Perhaps you assume I'm "one of you," since I never mentioned I'm from Milwaukee in the lame-o "introduce yrself" exercise. Your offhand remark about hating Counting Crows and neo-country implies decent taste, but I guess there's a lot of people running around who hate those things and like crap too. So all I'm saying is, don't think just 'cause I wear ratty t-shirts that I'm ready to sign up for your newsletter, if you know what I mean.

c) I am sort of weird looking. Perhaps this makes you nervous, and you were trying to keep an eye on me, lest I get a bug up my ass to start setting desks on fire, or something of the like. Have no fear! I may look a bit creepy, but I'm harmless as a... something that's very harmless.

d) You want to jump my bones. This is probably not true. If it is, your lack of subtlety is much appreciated! Please give further hints as to your relative enthusiasm for my-bones-jumping. I don't pick up on these things very well... fireworks and full frontal nudity would probably get the message across. You pick the venue! I don't want to see you get arrested. Unless that's somehow part of the message...
