"You look like you need a hug"

I heard this twice yesterday. The second time was at BSF where one of my girlfriends said it to another one of my girlfriends, a pretty common scene at BSF so nothing unusual there. But the first time made me do a double take. I was at work where one of the male engineers said it to my project manager, another man. I don't believe I have ever heard one man utter that phrase to another - especially engineers. Maybe I am stereotyping engineers but in the year I have been there the guys in my office have not come across real touchy-feely.

And as I side note - I do feel like I need a hug right now. I just attempted to make a dessert for Thanksgiving that I had never made before and it didn't turn out at all. In the grand scheme of life it is rather small and insignificant but I am sad anyway. And now I stressing out about what to do instead - do I go back to the grocery store for the 3rd time tonight or wait till tomorrow? And then when I do go back do I just buy something pre-made or do I make something tomorrow night that I have made in the past? Hmm...
