I downloaded an old Jason Mraz album after two of my co-workers described him as a "cooler John Mayer."  Cooler than Mayer?  I refuse to believe it.  If you sense sarcasm, you're way off base.  I'm not ashamed of my ongoing man-crush....that's right, I went there.  Actually, a reader (and I use this term very loosely) suggested that I create an entire page devoted to this uncontrollable, yet natural phenomenon.  I think she was joking when she said it, but you know what, why not?  Here's a top-10 list off the top of my head, in no specific order.  You'll notice that Mayer doesn't even make the cut.

1. Dirk Nowitzki
2. Justin Timberlake
3. Adrian Grenier
4. Milo Ventimiglia*
5. Wentworth Miller
6. David Lee (Knicks)
7. Andre 3000 
8. Patrick Dempsey 
9. Blair Underwood 
10. Robin Thicke

By the way, I know I've mentioned a lot of alternative/pop artists over the last few weeks, but I'm still into hip-hop.  It's just a slow time right now, and I need new tracks to get me through the day...and I can't help it if James Morrison makes me cry.  My one strong recommendation is the debut Blu & Exile album -- some of the most soulful production and sharp, witty lyricism you'll find on the shelves.

And finally, I knew that last Thursday would be good day from the moment I noticed my fly was down...except that it wasn't just down, it was broken.  I was on the train to work at the time, meaning I was forced to spend the entire day walking around with my pants fully unzipped.  Thankfully I remembered to wear underwear and prevented any unintentional Britney moments (sorry, no links -- I try to keep it classy).  Aside from inadvertently exposing myself to everyone in my office, I somehow managed to alienate a co-worker (female, of course).  Normally, this wouldn't be new territory for me, but we've never even met in person.  I feel the sequence of events can best be summarized through my own pathetic rendition of 7 Days: 

I talked to this girl on Monday
Planned a coffee meeting on Tuesday
She ignored me on Wednesday and Thursday and Friday and Saturday
I cried on Sunday.

*Bows*  I know, I deserve a Grammy for that classic...or serious therapy...whichever comes first.
