A Few Things... # 5 Seating Arrangements

The best way to start your day is by chasing after a bus. It's a well known fact. Even better is chasing after a bus you thought you were going to miss, climbing on to it breathing heavily, sighing victoriously that you caught the thing, and then have it sit there for five minutes waiting for the strollers to catch up.

In my anthropology class today an attractive girl came and sat beside me when there were seats enough so we could have had a few desks between us (now that I think of it she did the same thing at a bus stop yesterday). I'd like to imagine it's because she wanted me to talk to her, however the fact that she didn't really look at me much the entire fifty minutes makes it hard for me to believe it.

There are plenty of reasons why she could have sat where she did. One being she wanted to be closer to the center (where I was) and the seat next to me was the next best thing. Another would be that she probably didn't even notice that a dude was sitting there and just plopped down in a chair. Both of those seem reasonable and likely, though less awesome for me. So girls, do you deliberately do this or am I just over thinking it? If you are, give us some sort of hint like saying "hey" in a sultry tone. Or you could just sit right on our laps and ask "How ya doing stud?". That'd really clear the whole situation up for us, thanks.

Apparently there's been some sort of outbreak of Swine Flu in my dorm. Due to this a couple levels have been dubbed "Swine Floors". The hottest place to talk about the pig flu invasion is the elevator. Every time I step into that rickety thing the number of victims have gone up. This morning it was 12 people. This afternoon? 50. That pig is fast.
