Creepy Message

Early this afternoon, I got online because I promised an email to my boy. The first thing I saw was a message from a Facebook 'friend'. I use the term loosely because that's how I define my Facebook additions. Pretty much, if you're interesting, found me before I actually decided how to use the account, or know enough people, I'll add you. So I saw that a 'friend' sent me a message.

Without reprinting the message (although it's tempting, it's awful enough for me to know it's on Facebook), a guy with whom I was acquainted when I was in high school essentially professed that he had always found me appealing. Please read into 'appealing' what you must without asking me for the exact terminology.

Really, folks, it skeeved me out. I was never interested in this guy, in fact, I knew there was something just off about him that kept me away.

Why would he write me such a message? There's a good chance that it came from, say, that one extra cocktail that we all rue, but there's also a chance that he just wanted me to know.

I really didn't need to know. Fortunately, the long shower, complete with exfoliation, helped, but it'll still take a day or two to get rid of that message entirely.

Guys: Don't do things like that. Promise?
