The Mole

Today was an exam day. After an exam, you'd be lucky if I touched anything related to medicine.

I got my haircut. I walked around Newbury. I was feeling good, so I decided I wanted to go out on a date tonight. Unfortunately RedSox had a fundraiser to attend, and LV is playing poker at Foxwoods. So....... Craigslist it is.

I posted to get a burger at the 21st Amendment, and as expected close to 30 guys responded. But I went with... sorry I have to... Mole.

I didn't notice it in his pic. jpegs are small. I'm not looking at details. I'm just looking for someone I "can" or "cannot" be seen with. When I saw Mole, well... I didn't see the mole. I saw someone with whom I could be seen.

I agreed to meet him at 21st, and things started out great! We said hello, even had a friendly hug. We left the bar area to sit at a table, where there was better lighting. That's when I saw it... a prominent mole above his eye.

I'm more mature than this, so I went right into conversation. We talked about a bunch of random stuff with witty banter back and forth. Everything was going really well. The burgers were fab. I had an awesome oktoberfest.

But I couldn't help it. My eyes kept wandering back to the mole, and I'd be in a trance.

Needless to say, I was back home in less than an hour. I guess the mole had enough and whispered to my dinner companion that it was time to go.

Before I wrote this entry, I was thinking of researching moles on medline so I could educate all of you... and reassure myself that they're not contagious or life-threatening or GROSS (even though they are totally gross).... but like I said today was an exam day, and I'm not about to touch anything related to medicine.
