And you too can have one for the low, low price of $29.95!

After two hours of learning how to code field 250 in MARC, April and I headed down to the cafe for dinner.

After we had received our "food", we found a half decently cleaned table and proceeded to eat. I like eating in the cafe, but it's always so noisey and busy at lunch. But it's nice at dinner time, when there's hardly anyone there, and they play music for our listening and dining pleasure. Not that I really enjoy this music, as it's always generic pop and rap.

Then April leans over and whispers:

//See that hot guy over a few tables?//

I look over my left shoulder, then my right, and face her.

Um, no? You mean that guy over there...?

I point to a guy sitting by himself, who appeared to be chewing on a napkin. He looked like he had the IQ of a tennis ball.

//Yeah...don't you think he's hot?//

Not really...

Because he honestly wasn't that good looking. She sort of looks at me funny, and replies:

//Yeah, he does look sort of generic, doesn't he?//

Uh, yes, yes he did. He looked like almost every guy within a 10 foot radius. I find the whole thing amusing, because April's boyfriend looks like the extra member from 'N SYNC. In fact, he once told her that Justin Timberlake was like his mentor.

I smile, and go back to eating my linguine in shrimp sauce and staring at the cute nerdy guy with a Beatles haircut and chin strap.
