The gym
This afternoon, I went to the gym for a workout. Afterwards, I decided to try something I haven't ever done there before, - sit in the sauna. As I was laying down on the bench a young guy came in. We were sitting there for about 5 minutes when he said, "Can I ask you a question?" I said "Sure". Keep in mind that I am laying down on the bench so he can't see my 36 year old, tired mama face. So, he says, "What part of a guy do you think is the most attractive". Speaking off of the top of my head (aka open mouth insert foot)I said, "His brain - being committed." He stuttered after I answered and said,"Well I was kind of talking about like, his physical body, but yeah, that's a great answer." I am such a DORK!!!! Now I have a GEEK GIRL sign flashing above my head. I tried to back track and say, "Oh yeah, I mean, I really like it when a guy has great arms." My dork factor had already been more than apparent and the guy mumbled something that sounded like "Sure, whatever". I asked him how old he was, and he said,"24", and then he asked for the same information... I said,"Oh I have a few years on you, as well as a several kids and a hubby." Then I tried to give that as an excuse for my real, although "nerdy to a 24 year old" answer. Need I say that I ran out of the sauna rather quickly??????
On another note, I was on the treadmill and a 20-something guy got on the treadmill next to me with enough"Drakkar Noir" sprayed on his young body to take me back to 1988. It is SO incredible what a certain scent can do to your brain . I was immediately transported back to my teen years when certain boys basically bathed in this oh-so-common-yet-delicious cologne. It made me smile... The dude on the treadmill probably thinks I was thinking that he has a nice brain... or arms. Whatever!! :) He sure smelled nice!!!
