I wonder...

Maybe you see a nice girl who works in the same government building as you.

Your eyes meet walking from the parking lot into the office one day and from then on you can't seem to get her out of your head.

You keep bumping into her coming out of conference rooms or dropping off documents with people on your floor.

She drops her briefcase one day and you gentlemanly retrieve it for her. Perfect! Now you can strike up a conversation!

So, you ask, what do you do around here?

She looks you straight in the eye and tells you if she told you she might have to kill you. She then demands to see your security pass.

Shaken, you hand it over. She looks at it, sighs, hands it back and walks away.

You resolve to attempt online dating again, meeting girls in real life is just too weird. At least on the Internet you can expect the unexpected.

Because I've always kinda wondered if there were jobs so classified that if someone asked your security classification that you had to ask to see how high their classification was to see if it was high enough that they were allowed to know.

I imagine that this could also make water cooler or elevator encounters awkward.

Want to know what else makes things weird? Hats.

That's me. Help! My imagination ran away with me and now I don't know where I am.

  1. I met my husband on the internet.

    Good thing he didn't know that I used to be a man that used to be a firefighter that used to be a hairdresser that used to be a cat that used to be a mushroom that used to be a drag queen that used to be his uncle.

    But we both love Led Zeppelin so it cancels out all that other stuff.

  2. That is a heck of a lot of "used to be" statements.

    But if I ever found a woman who shared my taste in music I'd probably fall in love too.
