And then I offered to wipe his nose. March 15, 2008

It’s impossible to immerse yourself in a new job, to live it, breathe it, and not find yourself changed by it.

The proof of this change came last night over dinner….

While sitting with friends (some old, some new), the cute guy two seats down from me put down his napkin and said that he couldn’t eat another bite of his sandwich because he was full.

I promptly replied “See if you can eat two more bites. Then you can be done.”

It wasn’t until I looked up from my meal and heard everyone laughing did I remember that I wasn’t eating my meal with picky 8 year olds who hate eating their lunch.

But for the record, the guy DID eat two more bites. And then we shared a dessert.

Something an 8 year old would never do.

Funny! Sounds like Cute Guy had a good sense of humor about it.

2. Deutlich - March 15, 2008

3. Vanessa - March 15, 2008

4. Elisabeth - March 15, 2008

8. aRbit - March 15, 2008

Awww…that’s really cute :)

Haha, that’s funny. I totally know how you feel. Once, my professor was leaning back in his chair, and I said (really loudly), “Be careful and put your chair down! I don’t want you to fall.”

But props on sharing dessert with him… ;)

10. Ashley - March 16, 2008

Haha, that is something that I can do.

You shared a dessert with him? Uh Oh…let us know!

11. Hope - March 16, 2008

Hehe! I love that he did take another two bites. Will we hear more about Cute guy?

12. Katrin - March 16, 2008

That’s cute. It happens to me, too. When guiding teenagers through Europe I would yell at them to either stop at a red light or run when it was green. I also do that at 3 a.m. after a night out with friends - I yell at them to cross the street quickly. Oh well, at least YOU got to share a desert, I only got strange looks. ;)

I love it. I bet you are a fantastic teacher.

14. Caitlin - March 16, 2008

Too funny! Apparently I was giving people “the look” last night at the bar for questionable behavior.

15. seven - March 16, 2008

Haha… that’s hilarious.

16. Ashley - March 16, 2008

Haha! At first I thought you said this to a random stranger at a different table, then I read more carefully. Hysterical just the same!

17. Maggie - March 16, 2008

That’s awesome. And it sounds like something that I would do, without even realizing it. Being around small children can do funny things to a persons brain.

18. Julie Q - March 16, 2008

oh gosh, thats classic! he can even participate in recess now!

19. curlysue - March 16, 2008

LOL I love it! That’s too funny. Sounds like something I might do. Thanks for coming by! I’m going to give a look around.

20. Valerie - March 16, 2008

Haha! If I worked with kids all day, I can’t say that’s not something I would do.

21. Chelsea Talks Smack - March 16, 2008

hahahaha I love it.

22. Ruby - March 16, 2008

Hahahaha too cute! Sounds like he has a sense of humor and a sweet tooth…winner!

23. Tin Ma'am - March 16, 2008

HAHAH that made me chuckle! Very cute.

24. 1218blog - March 16, 2008

Love it! Very cute. But really, all men are like 8 year olds when it comes down to it.

25. lfar - March 17, 2008

AHHH hahaha, then you said “I’m not joking around, mister”.

As soon as the “mr” is thrown out, you know things are getting serious.

26. Michelle and the City - March 17, 2008

just make sure you don’t do this on your dates in the future! haha ;)

27. brookem - March 17, 2008

ha, you’re too cute. i almost, for a second, thought you were going to say that you shared a KISS with him.

28. Clearlykels - March 17, 2008

THat was fabulous! ha ha ha.

29. geekhiker - March 17, 2008

Heh. You do know that, deep down, us guys never really progress beyond 8 years old, right?

Is there more to tell of this “cute guy” tale? :)

30. libby - March 17, 2008

hahaha he must have been so bewildered!

31. Miss Pickle - March 18, 2008

Hehehehe, too cute! I love it.

32. Froggy - March 18, 2008

That is fantastic!

I worked at a summer camp many years ago, and on our day off some coworkers and I went to a nearby resort town. As we sat by the lake chilling out I had to physically restrain myself from yelling at someone else’s kid to STOP HARASSING THE DUCKS!

Because, you see, it wasn’t my job.

Funny how these things stay with you :)

Now… about that shared desert…? DETAILS!

33. Um...Yum! - March 19, 2008

That is too funny and cute. :o)

I used to work with a girl with autism with repetition tendencies– so swearing was out of the question.
Everyone else in my life thought it was a riot when I exclaimed “Oh heavens!” upon dropping something.

What a great story. This made me laugh out loud.
