My chem class’s lab technician. He’s at least thirty years older than me, wears a wedding ring and is going bald, but what can I say. I’m a sucker for Asian guys. When I went to ask him for a filter funnel last week he was listening to a not very famous 80s song that I love, and had actually been stuck in my head earlier that day. We’re clearly soul mates.

Ellen from those Cisco System commercials. Hot and innocent looking at the same time.

Felicia Day

I’ve convince myself of the fact that since she played a lesbian in a few episodes of Dollhouse that she _must_ be into girls. And if we ever met she would totally fall for me and wouldn’t even mind sharing me with my husband. I know he wouldn’t mind sharing me with her. 😃

I’ve been working this job too long, and am spending way too much time at work, because I find myself having crushes on boring-looking middle-aged white guys these days. There’s this one guy I work with who’s a little under twice my age, and I would shag him mercilessly. I suppose it’s not random and fleeting, but when it first started I thought it would be because seriously, why would I have a crush on him?

The guy visiting from Florida, Tom. He’s the son of one of our seniors. Fortunately, he’ll be going back in a couple of weeks.

I work on the campus of a major midwestern university. I can fall in lust with random anonymous girls 5 times walking between buildings. If that’s not fleeting, I don’t know what else would be.

But like OMG, they’re all so YOUNG!!!😃

My plane crush from yesterday. LaGuardia to Dallas. One of the most beautiful women I have ever seen - imagine a Jessica Simpson type, but taller - very curvy/voluptuous but not even remotely overweight (like when she was Daisy Duke). Now imagine her Latina - Jessica Simpson with dark hair, an amazing tan and brown eyes. Now imagine her coming on board and doing a slow walk - basically like Phoebe Cates in Fast Times at Ridgemont High - down the aisle straight towards me (well towards all of us a bit back in the plane). Wearing a tight tank top with no bra and low-slung super-tight jeans tucked into cowboy boots. Now imagine her taking her own sweet time lifting up her bag and stuffing it into the overhead compartment, starting to sit down and then getting back up to get something out of her bag. Lifting her arms over her head - what, is something stuck in the bag? Of course - so now she has her arms over her head, jiggling herself all over the place as she tries to dislodge whatever is in her bag.

You have no idea how exquisitely painful this all was to witness, and you could hear a pin drop in the plane for the duration. This woman was clearly a trained professional.

I’ll be in my bunk.

Huh. I actually saw a girl who looks a lot like her working at Long John Silver’s on a trip. I actually wanted to take a pic to show you guys But I chickened out.

BTW, isn’t it sad that my first thought when seeing a beautiful girl is to ask what you guys think? I’m so addicted to this place.

I’ve seen a couple of clips from Christopher Cross’ 1998 show on YouTube. He had a beautiful redhead playing keyboards, quite visible over his right shoulder in the clips. In [this one](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_mbT2eduUo&feature=related), she has some nice close-ups at 2:18 and 3:32.

I wish I knew who she was. It’s been 12 years; I hope she has aged gracefully, because she is smokin’ hot in these videos.

She’s been on my list almost since the very first time I saw her. Seems very down to earth, and no not the Mercury version. (Borderline creepish admission here) I follow her on Twitter, and Facebook. She seems like someone you’d want to hang out with, very family oriented, and not the ‘getting into Lohan trouble at 4 AM’ type.

This is so fleeting and new I had to look her up to find her name for this thread.
