I actually wrote this one for a creative writing class in college. I think everybody else in that class thought I was weird. They were all writing gritty real life stories, and I was writing about girls who babysit for dragons and pick roses for unicorns.

I liked this a lot. Comfortably slow, interesting, even funny at places, nice ending... I actually laughed a few times as I read this. Very good little piece. I can't really say anything negative about this. I can't think anything you would like to change in this one.
Somehow, I read this story as a message to the modern, work and money orientated, in-the-box people: Take something out-the-box, free your mind, let your imagination fly, take a new hobby, find a new love, do something so you can say you have lived. It's a good message, I think, but often just too hard to actually execute.
This story is rather interesting, as we are given more about the protagonist or first person narrator as the story goes on. At first he is very professional, gentle, trusting to his education and logic. Piece by piece his hard psychiatrist exterior is crumbled as the girl makes small, subtle notes about him and his life. The part with the butterflies is really good. I liked the moral. The two lines with his secretary gives more about his personality than the whole first meeting with the girl. This just shows how secure he is about his own methods in the beginning.
Very nice little piece, I enjoyed this a lot. Fun, entertaining, good humor story. I can't really figure out who could be mad to a story like this. Good job, well written.
