Being out of the house by 7:50am never looked so good!!

I have a bus boyfriend; and he makes going to work every morning worth it!!

When I lived in NYC I had a subway boyfriend...I named him Dave. I would see him on the 8:25am 6 train at 77th Street. He wore a suit everyday. He had brown, thinning hair (which surprisingly wasn't unattactive). He was taller than me (so important). He was in the train when I got on, he got off the train after me. I never spoke to him, but I did sit next to him once and tried to peak at what he was listening to on his ipod (Dave Matthews, not too shabby, but that's not why I named him Dave, he just looked like one). He wasn't there every day which was sad, but the days he was there I couldn't help but think that today was going to be a good day!! I always wondered if he saw me everyday and wondered where I was going, what my name was or if I'd like to have his children. When I moved, thus no longer taking the subway every morning, I wondered if Dave noticed and was curious as to where I went.

Now living in San Francisco, I take the bus to work everyday and have a bus boyfriend. I've named him Ben. Ben wears glasses. I don't normally like glasses, but I love them on him. He wears a camel colored zip up sweater as a jacket. He wears jeans to work. And black and red sneakers. Ben has perfect skin. But being the shy girl that I am (only around guys I like), I can't make any moves (I've got no game) so my goal is to make eye contact with him and smile. Hopefully, that will do something...and by something I mean he'll come over, sit down next to me, and ask me to spend the rest of my life with him. So until then, I sit and stare...literally stare, for the whole ride, all 15 minutes of it. I imagine Ben has a girlfriend, guys like him always do. And by 'guys like him', I mean guys who dress impeccably and are so cute that you've considered being late for work on a number of occasions so that you could follow him to see where he works (no, I have not followed him...at least not yet.).

So I ride the bus, stare at Ben, and fantasize about him breaking up with his girlfriend because he can't get that girl from the bus out of his mind.

Ben, isn't it time that you just realized that you love me and that we should live happily ever after?
