You're beautiful...

My mental thoughts have been behaving rather abnormally for the past 1 week or so. Of course, I'm still mentally alert and capable of being productive at work, performing analysis of network traces, etc. No worries, I haven't suddenly gotten forgetful or scatterbrained. Yes, yes. I know. Debateble. *rolls eyes*

No, as far as that aspect is concerned, I'm functioning normally. The weird part is that out of the blue, the song "You're Beautiful" by James Blunt has begun making regular appearences in my head. Perhaps a bit of background info will help.

A long time ago, in a galaxy far away...oh wait. Wrong story.

About a month or two ago, a girl started working in the same area as my department is located. She's definitely not an enginner, or else I'd already have her name, address, phone number and we'd probably have watched a coupla movies together already. Well...maybe just her name and phone number, but those other stuff are strong possibilities! Heh! Anyway, she's kinda cute I guess. My first impression is that she had damn nice legs! She was wearing some sort of power-suit kinda thing and after seeing lotsa girls wearing jeans these days, the medium skirt was a very nice change of scenery and I gotta admit that her ankles are rather shapely! But I digress. Besides, my thoughts were all pure!

Anyway, getting back to the story, at that time her hair was tied in a bun. Let me put it this way. She was the model image of a professional woman executive. As the weeks pass, while the image is still maintained, the dressing became less severe and more on the gentle and feminine side. Me? I'm enjoying the view while cracking my head trying to solve some issue or another.

I think James Blunt started singing in my head about a week ago or so. As I recall, she dropped the bun and let her hair loose. Ahh...such transformation! It's like seeing the blossoming of flowers right after the rain. Now each time I catch a glimpse of her, the song resonantes in my head.

"You're beautiful. You're beautiful. You're beautiful, it's true."
