i especially like old men who eat

I'm dying. Teddy has come over 3 times to grab a sammy and fake sausage roll from our leaving "party"...I want to poke his tummy so badly it pains me a little.

not-a-stalker-no

Is today the last day I'll ever see hottie mcaussie? I mean, he doesn't appear to hang out in any of my second homes (notably LKF). I don't fish, nor do I ever go shopping for crisp white men's shirts.

Anyone have his residential address?

In defence of older men

Josh is being wooed by a very persistent co-worker, a very surprisingly forward local co-worker, who is probably her age. I'm impressed, actually, by his nerve. Apparently that makes me hateful.

So, as a reminder of why we ogle the older guys:

1. They're less likely to stalk
2. They're more likely to be married already, so you know it's truly fantasy
3. They've probably had years of being ogled, so our attention is like water off the proverbial.
4. Less likely to tell stories about our crushes to put us off them (take note, Young Saboteur).
5. Men of the world don't need to pretend to "fix someone's computer" so they can ogle us!

if you close your eyes...

Are we allowed to crush on Calvin? I mean, he sorta belongs to a colleague. And he desperately needs a new barber, tailor, speechwriter. Not sure if he's above 45 either.

But fack it, he has a sexy voice.

ps. The other day I heard Josh's maybe-gay old man crush say he's from the south! He-ell-O!

Another conspiracy theory

We have been told that Hottie McAussie likes to go fishing. Yes, in a boat, with a long pole, flies, net, probably a dodgy, floppy hat. Apparently his wife goes with him. Bit of a turn-off.

Then the same, heretofore assumed-to-be-reliable source told us he over heard The Cowboy talking about YouTube porn.

These "facts" were more than enough to put us off.

But then we thought harder: this source was rather put out when he heard the cut-off age for Oldmancrush was 45. So we're deciding, for now, to ignore the rumours and enjoy ogling for the remaining week and a half we have in the same office as our Oldmancrushes.

Source is just jealous, no doubt, and trying to sabotage. Bless.

Besides, Teddy called me by name AGAIN. You can't just give up on that sort of attention.

Cutie Patootie

I am seriously crushing on Cutie Patootie today. The laidback, probably Canadian editor of the supposedly most advanced desk is just adorable when he's excited about something. He was chatting to his staff about...something, and he has a very lovely laugh. He's a bit of a dork, which is cute, too. Makes me want to go "aaawww" and stroke his shaved head.

I think it's also due to the fact that Hottie McAussie is STILL away. Maybe he's realised he shouldn't be seen in public until his hair grows out a bit. Still in mourning.
