*grin*
I had kids training yesterday. I thought it would be incredibly tiring (running around after tiny Japanese rugrats all day) when in fact it was just the opposite. Me, Kobuta, and our trainer Tony sat in the kids room all day going through the lesson plans and occasionally pretending to be children so we could practice on each other.
Now, this doesn't sound like much fun, but it was greatly enlived by the fact that Tony is 27, British, and (despite his receding hairline) pretty cute. Not really hot, mind you, but cute enough to add extra zest to the games where we had to join hands. He was also very sweet; joking with us, reassuring us that we were doing well, and continuing to train us enthusiastically despite the massive head cold he developed throughout the day.
Of course, this has made me realize that perhaps it's time for me to have my long-awaited fling, but once again, the options are a bit limited. Should I go after a fellow teacher? (nearly every book, person, or common sense saying I've ever consulted says this is a bad idea) Should I go after a Japanese guy? (the language barrier might be a problem, especially since I'm unsure about how far this fling should go) Or should I just fling myself out into bars in the hopes that I find an english-speaking non-nova teacher? (problem is, I'm not really a bar person). Or perhaps I'll just do what I always do, and not do anything...

While I think a fling is a capital idea, I don't think co-workers are the way to go. CWs are good for locker-crushes but you don't want things to Get Weird at work, do you? ("It got weird, didn't it.")
I'd say, go out with Kobuta for drinks or whatever, dress up and sit in a corner. Then try to exude Hussy vibes.

flings are meant to be fun. co-workers as flings will most likely end in akwardness and not so much fun. and with that attitude, you'll never find a fling. you gotta work for your fling if you want one.
btw.. what is your japan blog?
