Boys Part 2: The Waiter

So I was at a pub this Sunday (not for St. Patrick's Day, for McEats' belated birthday gathering, but it was full of the Irish!) and we had a table with a waiter to bring us beer. I liked this waiter. :-P The drunker I got, the more I watched him and giggled like a doofus and kept telling McEats that I liked him. He liked that I liked him b/c he likes the pub. haha So McEats' girlfriend (lets call her...Curls) decided she would take matters into her own hands and give him my number. So gets a piece of paper and gets McEats to give her the number and she puts it with the check (his shift was over so we were settling his bill before we had a new waiter). At first I took it away, too nervous, but then after some prodding by both Curls and McEats (I really like using these names!), I gave in (McEats' sound reasoning is if he calls, I'm not a loser, and if he doesn't, well, I don't go to that pub that often anyway). Sitting there for a few seconds, I eventually freaked out and ran to the loo to pee.

Within seconds after I came back to the table, he came over and introduced himself...hmmmm, let's call him Tall...and asked where I was from, if I was in school, etc. He seemed interested in what I do for a living, which was cool. He said he was exhausted and had to leave, but it was nice meeting me and did I really want him to call? So I said yes. After this, I had to leave to go see a band I like, with Little (sigh) and other friends. Getting drunker, I was nervous all night that Tall wouldn't call and that he was so cute. haha

Then the next morning, I realised I was WAAAAY more nervous that he MIGHT call! (Also a little worried that he wouldn't be as cute sober...)

So. Guess who called a few hours ago? I was at work and didn't answer and when I noticed it was not a number I knew, I panicked. Checked the voicemail. Yep. Tall. Very sweet asked if I was still interested in getting a drink or dinner sometime and gave me his number. Gah! I haven't called back yet. I've tried to call McEats, but he's probably working somewhere and I can't get ahold of him.

::sigh:: Same problem occurs with the timing if we DO go out, though I've decided I can skip my current Friday plans if need be. (Weird how I wouldn't skip it for Yoga...haha...but I guess it's better to make the guy wait longer for the second date, than the first.) Man, the life of a single young(-ish) girl! It's nerve-wracking! haha

Seriously! My stomach is doing flip-flops! I'm scared to call back! It's funny how I'm so good at talking to people, but I just can't make myself know this at times like these!

(Just looked over my calendar quick...I really am busy...I'll probably lose both of these guys b/c I won't be around to see them!)

Okay, I'm going to go home now. I'll call on my way home so I have an out in the conversation! ;-)

The End.
