I have this horrible tendency to develop crushes on girls that are generally unattainable. I don't mean this in the "I'm such a loser, no girl would date me" type of way, but more in the "that relationship would never materialize because of geographical hurdles" type of way. (Of course, pictures like these don't exactly help make me more attractive to the opposite gender:)


lillia, han, and me trying to look as humanely dorky as possible

Case in point: while in Portland, I got to eat at Red Robin (which is pretty much like Chili's except with better burgers). There was this (Chinese?, roughly my age) waitress there named Aggie (what a unique name!) ... and for reasons unknown to me, I developed a pretty big crush on her. What sense does that make?! We talked for a total of about 20 seconds ... how the heck does that develop into a crush?

Basically I feel like I'm still in elementary school or something - I'm pretty sure this isn't normal behavior for a 22-year old... Then again, I do have the maturity of a 12-year old, as evidenced by this picture from OSCON (and actually from Red Robin!):

No picture of the waitress? I'm told that women actually think that men are all children anyway, so if we act that way it only makes them feel comfortable around us -- since we are acting "normal" for our species. :-)
