i’m crushed

Ok, I think I’m definitely infatuated with Matt, my latest online, um, infatuation. Yes, that’s circular. It’s late. I’m tired.

If I log into There and he’s not online, I feel letdown. When I get the little message flashing in my client “Your buddy Toadstool has logged in,” I get a little frisson of excitement. I end phone calls with him smiling and laughing. When I learned his full name, I googled him, and found his poetry—all of which I read—and photos (and he’s not only thoughtful, intelligent and funny, he’s cute!).
