Miniscule pick-me-up
Today as I was biking back from lunch I overheard two junior high school girls talking about me. The conversation went like this:
Girl 1: "Isn't he hot?"
Girl 2: "Really hot."
Regardless of the fact that they are probably 15 years my junior and also know very little about what criteria make a foreign man "very hot," it managed to perk me up just a tad on an otherwise dreary day.
It's the small things in life.

Dude you need to get back to the states ... really...

You sure they weren't talking about your temperature? Sweaty and flushed from the exertion of biking?
Girl 1: "Doesn't he look hot?"
Girl 2: "Burning up."
Girl 1: "And get a load of those spreading sweat stains!"
Girl 2: "Icky!"
Just providing an alternative view...public service, you know.

I was translating (liberally, I might add) カッコイイ as "hot," so ... NO!
Allow me my little ego boosts!

Ah, I see.
Girl 1: "Wow, isn't he well-formed?"
Girl 2: "Yes, QUITE!"
Girl 1: "He must work out."
Girl 2: "Yes...that would explain the sweat stains."

You and your sweat-stains, man.

Yeah...it's starting to border on fetishism.
Should I be concerned, you think?

What's this about sweating on girls in junior high? Sickos.

There's something very strange about Matt's take on things...
I likes it!

Help! My post has been hijacked by sweat-fetish blog-trolls!

Ooh. Is that a bead of nervous sweat I see breaking out?! Ooh-hoo-hoo!
