We're both too awkward for sexual harassment.

My (male, straight) boss just emailed me with the subject line "available?" and asked me to do a work thing.

I replied and said I'd do it, and then he wrote back, "I also just realized that my subject line could get me in some HR trouble… ha… I’ll be more specific next time."

Oh. It actually didn't even cross my mind that my married, just-had-a-baby boss might be soliciting me for...whatever, until you pointed that out, but...well, NOW I'm uncomfortable.

I mean, aside from the "married, just-had-a-baby, boss" bit, I totally would, but all things considered, I'm incapable of perceiving anything you do as flirtation. Obviously don't grab my ass or anything, but as far as hitting on me, you'd have to be pretty explicit for me to pick up on it. I can't tell when eligible dudes are flirting with me.

Plus he has like five kids, so his sperm are far too industrious to be allowed anywhere NEAR my bits.

My inner goddess is still super awkward.

I just registered for an Intro to Burlesque dance class, because clearly I don't feel awkward ENOUGH on the daily, I have to pay to be reminded I lack sex appeal. 

Selecting the proper workout ensemble has never quite felt this important. I wonder what the odds are I could configure a bra under here. (Yeah, I know -- slim to none.)
