It's back to school night and I'm sitting on the floor. I guess that's a good thing that lots of parents want to be involved.

Surprise, surprise... Steve sat behind the "hot" moms.

I've got a couple years till such events but honestly, I look forward to them.

I can assure you - despite the bare shoulders… none of the moms pictured were hot. but two of them have become friends… so it would be weird for me to think they were hot.

Why would it be weird? Are you not friends with hot people? Have I been doing this wrong?

steve  ·  3750 days ago  ·  link  ·  

hahaha…. well - I guess there are a couple of factors:

1 - I'm married to a woman about 8.7x as hot as any of the pictured women. 2 - I may not find them physically attractive - but they are really cool, so it feels weird saying they're not hot…. because personality wise - they're really cool. 3 - I think I just felt weird/shallow about judging the hotness of some moms at my kids' school. 4 - I have now officially overanalyzed what was certainly a joke from TNG.

I always look forward to looking at behinds.

....and sniffing them, as I recall.

Heck yeah! That reminds me. I had lunch with a friend I hadn't seen in a long time and talked to her about doing a collaborative thing and then later tonight I had drinks with another friend I am trying to do another collaborative thing with and I had this idea of trying to create a small collaborative network aimed at playing with and off of each other. I think it could be cool to get a group of motivated, creative types together to support each other and to combine efforts as kind of a generative thing.

So far, we've got the thing you and I have been toying with, a pottery/poetry thing that is in progress and a poetry/photo thing I'm trying to get off the ground. Just an idea, but maybe it could be fruitful and more importantly, fun?

Hell yeah, bring it. I'm down for whatever. I think there is a TON of talent on Hubski and we should tap in to that as much as we can. This place is at its best when we are collaborating with one another imo. By all means invite other creatives to the party. I was thinking, in light of mk's recent declaration to begin painting again, about posting a painting challenge. It's one of those art forms that anyone can attempt with little investment. We could have a collaborative painting, poetry, music project. The possibilities are endless.

Alright, I'm off to bed.
