I think I just found mine.
There he was: brown hair, blue eyes, not so tall, not so bulky, just right, pleasant, and smiling. He's been in three countries, and is possibly influenced by three cultures--Italian, Japanese, and the good old American--and obviously one country ahead of what I have in my location resume. Not that I'm counting any points, but if I was looking for someone who could show me the world, he's already seen one more than I have. The rest, however, is still waiting for my arrival.
Behind the counter in a place we call "at work", he still smiles at me like he's waited his entire week to see my oily, just woken up, face behind those dark-framed mask I call glasses. None of everything else matters to me--the dawn shift, the cranky people wishing for more energy at 2am, and the decent money we make from being in this place--except for the fact that I know a name.
Darion. His. Something I would never forget.
And yet, I worry how Marjie, mine, would appeal to someone like him.
In an old quote I read from a friend's signature in an email, "Unless you're willing to do the ridiculous, God will not do the miraculous", I ask, what ridiculous thing can I do now so God would throw a miracle for me to get closer to this man?
Sadly, I still have no answer.

Sheesh hun, are you alright? Love-struck I'd say!!
My advice, don't start an office romance ;)
However, that said, if it doesn't work out - how bad could it actually be??
There's a married couple in my office. They are in eachother's faces everyday, all day!
Go and talk to the lad, he's more than likely more than 'game'.
Girls are far too shy most of the time..
CJC
I say as long as he is avail.. go for it.. what harm will it do?
umm.. there are so many silent lovers around.. hah??
Accidentally 'bump into' him by the coffee machine and strike up a conversation I say!
Good luck :)
If he doesn't notice *you* than he's not so miraculous anyway.
