Last night the note made it's way into the hands of another girl. It was at the hardware store, where I was getting some supplies for a project I'm working on. She was working there. I passed her in an aisle, "Excuse me, do you know where the pvc pipe is?"
Then at the cash register I went to her till, and asked if she could hold on for a moment while I get one more thing. (It wasn't busy). I went out got some superglue, wrote out a copy of the note, came back, and after purchasing the super glue I left the note sitting there on her till. (Cowardly, I know.)
Then I left. Oh did I mention? Stander was with me this time. We were in the parking lot when I realized that I had forgotten my jacket. So we went back in, got it, and the only way out was, (you guessed it), right past that girl. She didn't see us coming, because her back was turned to us and she was talking to the other cashier there.
"Yeah that guy buying the crazy glue."
"Niiiiice." responded the other cashier, then she saw me coming and she smiled.
I covered my mouth in complete embarrassment and went straight for the door. The one I gave my number to saw me and looked quite surprised. When we were outside, Stander and I started laughing about the situation.
This morning, among the first thoughts to enter my mind were of the note. When I checked my phone, I had a message waiting for me. (The 1st results)
"Who are you giving your number to mh girlfriend?"
I half expected this, but in the form of a phone call, not a text. It's a little discouraging. I think Stander is right, I need to be out there getting phone numbers, not giving mine out. After reading that text, I feel like I should quit trying and just go back to waiting for someone to come to me.
"Women are flowers and men are bees." - a Korean saying.
Oftentimes I wish it were the other way around.
dont worry.....my luck at the moment is nil....even putting a pic of my mole hills on one site.....and nothing :(
ReplyDeleteI am confused. What do you mean...mole hill?
ReplyDeleteA quote that comes to mind...
“'What do you fear my lady?'
'A cage. To stay behind bars until use and old age accept them and all chance of valor has gone beyond beyond recall or desire.'”
I think some people adjust to the cards they are dealt, and sometimes sex (or even good sex) just isn't in their hand. Then there are we, who's appetite is never satiated.
Keep up with the notes! Just think of how awesome it will be when it actually works! This experiment has book potential!
ReplyDelete...and I consider myself more butterfly than flower :)
@Rabbit, after giving it some thought, I know what you meant by molehills now :)
ReplyDelete@Plaything, thank you for the encouragement. And it's good that you are a butterfly, because you get the best of both worlds. As a woman, you will be asked out by men, and by having the courage to fly like a butterfly... well for obvious reason that's a huge advantage over being a standstill flower :)
