A squid, a pebble, or a police officer.

Today, instead of studying and keeping to myself like I normally do, I was joined by a 20 year old pretty surfer boy who apparently wanted to do nothing other than talk to me all day - during lunch, during class, between classes, etc. In the halls between classes, he'd poke me with his finger to get my attention. I'd seen him around before and sort of misjudged him as kind of a nitwit. Ends up he's a math whiz who tutors all the local kids in calculus. I halfway wanted to tell him, “I know you're probably thinking I'm about 25, but you and your green eyes and enviably thick, long blond hair are so barking up the wrong tree.” But I didn't. We had lunch together and I let him talk to me for hours, about surfing, math, martial arts, and Monty Python.

Nice kid.

School was all right; I got a hundred on last week's quiz and I seem to be back in the swing of it. Applying myself, and such. I guess.

I might have mentioned a few times (a minute) about this rad agent I am not yet ready to query, but I've been following her Twitter because she posts such great stuff. Today she posted this video and said that it was exactly what agenting was like:

Dude, I seriously hope I don't (do?) get an agent like that. I know nothing about the show, but am immediately crushing on the ginger with the impeccable comic timing. “A squid, or a pebble, or a police officer.” “Absolutely write that! OR! Don't.”

I'll be off now to write my MC in love with a pebble.

Hi Kapunua it's Welshie. (Welsh anon)

Ah Mitchell and Webb. They're quite popular here in Britain. They had a comedy show called The Peep Show. I have to admit I also think that Robert Webb's a bit of alright!
He won Let's Dance for Comic Relief 2009 with his version of Flashdance. He's brilliant in it and his legs, well what can I say?

My biggest crush though is the 'Let's Dance' presenter Steve Jones. Tall, dark, handsome and Welsh! What more could you ask for eh? He sounds a bit like a certain condiment you dreamt of :) haha. (Without the Welsh bit of course)

Here's a link to the Comic Relief show. Watch it and drool.

HOLY CRAP. You know, he can really dance. And, ridiculously, I am wild about men who can dance. Can't explain it, but it is one of my "things."

Thanks for the link!

Someone beat me to posting the YouTube link to Robert Webb's Flashdance, I see! Well, there's also his Banana Dance from That Mitchell and Webb Look (same show the above agent skit came from):
