not quite sure what to do about this

i think my boss is now determined to set me and good-looking maintenance guy up. 'find me somebody to love' was on the radio, and i told karol to find me somebody to love. my boss was there and she said, 'good-looking maintenance guy!' to which i replied, 'uh-huh.' and she said, 'no, seriously. i think he'd be good for you. he's intelligent and sportsy and outgoing, but can be quiet and thoughtful.' and karol said, 'oh, yeah.' and of course i came back with, 'and he does ballroom and latin dancing.' [instead of, 'but do you know how old he is?'] and they both went, 'ooh, yeah. see?'
here's hoping he doesn't come back [well, at least until my boss gets this out of her head].

yeah, me neither.
oh, and he was there plowing the parking lot this morning. i didn't see him, but when i was in the dining room i heard him saying good morning to the people in the kitchen, but couldn't think of a reason to go in there, even though i wanted to (because while my boss and internet stalking made it all awkward for me, he's still pretty to look at. and i always figured he knew i had a crush on him anyway, so whatever).
anyway, so my boss heard that he had been there, and as she was telling me how perfect he would be for me, she added, 'i hear he was here today, melilot. and he's single.' as in 'he's gonna be around now, so let's make this work.'

and it wouldn't be a hard sell (obviously! i mean look at that list!), if it weren't for the fact that, apparently he's old!

i think you could say "he's too old for me" without divulging his true age. after all, you had thought he was 42. they probably think that, too.

Wait, I'm sorry. I know I'm out of the loop and all. But does he really dance? And are you saying that would be in the CON list? (so confused...)

he really does dance. and one time years ago he said we'd go. granted he didn't mean it, but still.
and no, that's not a con. not at all. that's tres sexy.
no, i'm just saying that instead of listing a negative, go me, i listed another positive. so counterproductive.
