So there's this elderly yet spry woman who works at the Rox as a cashier.  And I thought she told me her name was Karen, but there is no Karen on the schedule, only a Carolyn.  So I think her name may be Carolyn.  Anyway, this woman is probably 70 years old and tiny.  Her great-grandson (who is probably 9 years old) comes to some of the games.  She wears eyeliner and is really sweet.

Today, this elderly woman turned to me (after some kid my age who works at the Rox helped himself to a fountain drink) and said, "Oh my, God!  He was gorgeous!"  I hadn't seen the kid, and I told her so, and she said, "Valerie, you HAVE to check him out.  Go walk into him and then tell him you didn't see him and then strike up a conversation.  He may be a little young for you, but oh, well who cares?  Oh, by the way, do you have a boyfriend?"

LOL

Then like an hour later, I was getting some nachos, and I felt a tickle in my throat so I turned my head to cough and I heard Karen/Carolyn YELL in a panicked voice, "Valerie, Valerie, VALERIE!"  And I thought she was either going to yell at me for coughing or that something was wrong.  So I ran over and then she whispered loudly, "YOU MISSED HIM AGAIN!"

LOLOL.

She kept trying to convince me to go into the kitchen, pretending to look for something, so that I could check this kid out.  But I really didn't want to.  I've probably seen this kid around a billion times and I didn't feel like seeking out a potential boyfriend.  Plus, later on this woman was telling me that the boy working next to me was pretty cute too, but nothing too special.  And that kid was Sean Dowd, and I think he went to Spellman and is younger than I am.

So that is the funny story of my night.  And the Rox are out of town until next Friday; hooray!  I can have a little bit of a life for the next 8 days.
