Guilty.

Sometimes when I'm alone late at night I read the Eugene Craigslist "Missed Connections" page, just to restore my faith that some sweet and quirky people are out there (even if a lot of weirdos and whackjobs are out there too).

This one posting caught my attention because it sounds like it's about me:
Woman in pea coat smelling fruit at Market of Choice last night before closing. Adorable and kind of funny, even though you probably weren't trying to be.

(I go there late at night, in my gray peacoat, and I do sometimes shamelessly sniff the fruit to see if it's ripe, but I seriously doubt... I mean, this is Eugene.)

And this one is really quite epic, and is arguably made even more so by its spelling errors:
Crying brunette in silver mini van:
Almost every morning I see you driving from beltline taking a left onto gateway. Your beuty is the high light of my morning. Today when I saw you I wanted to jump out of my car and tell you everything would be ok. I can't get you out of my head. Don't cry. Slim chance you will see this but lets talk if you do.
