mystery voice

i have a tiny crush... on a guy that i've never met. he's the human resources director in our NY headquarters office, so he calls on a semi-regular basis for employees here who have some HR question. and every time i hear his voice, my heart beats faster, and i try to hide the smiles in my voice. i have never heard a deeper, smoother voice ever in my LIFE. i secretly joke and call him "Quiet Storm" (i've NEVER told HIM that, of course, and never will - gotta maintain professionalism) because he has the voice of one of those late-night radio dj's on some smooth jazz station or something. just scrumptious.

now it is more than highly likely that i will never meet this man, and don't really want to for that matter. he's in new york, i'm in dc...and if i ever do go to ny for whatever reason, i don't plan on stopping by our HQ office just to meet him. but still, i love imagining what he must look like. for all i know, he could look straight up like Quasimoto's twin brother, but i try not to think about that and ruin the fantasy.

I always get so excited when i genuinely have to contact him about an HR concern, like benefits or something. i never call him, only email. but i love when i see his replies in my inbox. he writes things like, "As always, it was a pleasure to hear from you..."

TEE HEE!! (giggling like a school girl).

SIGH.

how sad my life must be that i can develop a secret, never-to-be-revealed crush on a phone voice. sad, just sad.
