Only Me!
Saturday evening after going to the movies with a friend, I stopped by Walmart. While I'm in line, the guy in front of me begins to have a conversation with me.
Him: "Are you John Rigney's daughter? How is he doing?"
Me: "Yes, I am. He's doing well." I have no idea who you are fellow.
Him: "Weren't you just at the movies?"
Me: "Yes..."
Him: "Were you watching Alvin and Chipmunks?"
Me: "Yes. My friend and I were a little embarrassed to be there since it was a kid show, but it turned out to be really funny." WHO ARE YOU??
Him: "Wow, you are gorgeous!"
Me: "Thanks." Guy, who are you? Who says that to random people??
So he grabs the items I have in my hand, and puts them up on the conveyor belt for me. He then asks how my mom is doing. He checks out, and I go about my business checking out. As I'm leaving the register, I realize that this guy is waiting on me.
Him: "Hey, I wanted to ask you at the movies, but I wasn't sure if were dating that guy, but since he's just a friend, could I have your number? I'd love to take you to dinner sometime. You are so pretty"
Me: If I don't do something, this crazy guy may follow me out to my car. Just make up a number and give to him. "Yeah, I can give you a number."
Him: "I just got this phone, I can't really figure it out. How about I just dial in your number."
Me: Great, now he'll dial my phone while I'm waiting. Just give him your number, you can always avoid calls from numbers you don't recognize. "Yeah it's..."
Him: "Thanks, I'll get in touch with you this week."
So I headed as quickly as possible to my car to get out of there. I got home and relayed the story to my parents, wondering what guy would know my parents and then ask me out. It finally hit mom after giving a description of the slightly overweight, greying, early 40's man. He was the guy who worked for Roto-Rotter! He did some work for my parents almost a year ago. I'm a bit freaked out because who remembers clients daughters from almost a year ago. It's not like the plumber is at our house every day.
Well last night, he calls the house and leaves a message on the answering machine. He ended up deleting my number from his cell, but I guess he looked up my house number in his records. He left his cell number and asked me to call. Then today, I get home from running some errands to find flowers. Yes, Gerber Daisies delivered on Christmas Eve with a note that reads "Merry Christmas!!! Just wanted to put a smile on your face. Wishing you and yours a wonderful holiday season. Call me sometime. David." All of this is followed by his cell number!
Can we stay stalker?? So now I'm going to have to call this guy and tell him, thanks for the compliments and the beautiful flowers, but I'm just not interested.
What guy really does this kind of thing? Who tells someone that is basically a stranger they are gorgeous while standing in line at Walmart? These things only happen to me!
