I Like Bad Boys!

How many women have had a thing for the bad boy?  Every woman has definitely gone through that stage.  I must say I have had my share of bad boy crushes.  Mark Wahlberg, Robert DeNiro (when he's playing a gangster), Jason Statham (he just gives off the bad boy air), and Ed Norton (when he was his alter ego, Roy in Primal Fear) are just a few.  And I am sure you will laugh when you hear about this one, James Gandolfini (as Tony Soprano).  I think I just loved how much of a bad guy he was. Trust me, it had nothing to do with looks.  But, I digress...

The student council at my school has decided to celebrate Valentine's Day by selling Candy Grams.  The kids have the opportunity to send one to their teacher, parent, friends, etc.  It was a cute idea, but of course it turned into a source of comic relief for me and the subject of tonight's post.

Most of the Candy Grams send the usual Valentine's Day message.  It's very rare for us to come across one that becomes a topic of conversation in the teachers' room.  Today was one of those rare occasions.  Apparently one of the little angels is quite smitten with a "bad boy" in her class.  She decided to use the Candy Gram as a means to profess her love for her "Rude Boy" (as Rihanna would say).

Dear Frankie,


I love you because you're a bad boy.  I really love bad boys.  That's why you're my Valentine. 


Love, Nancy

I must say that I was extremely relieved when the Candy Gram was intercepted.  Had I have missed the opportunity for that interception, Little Nancy would have definitely made a 100-yard touchdown and did Victor Cruz's dance in the end zone.  Who could blame her though?  Every girl needs a little bad boy in her life.
