I can't stop shaking my head.

Someone I raved about to other students as being one of the best professors I've ever had has shocked me beyond belief.

A few weeks ago my old management professor came into the store. I didn't really feel like talking to him so I convinced my manager to ring him up. Tonight he comes in and I look up and he's standing in my line. No biggy, my manager goes to bring him to her register and he insists he stays there. He comes up, I make small talk. Then he flat out looks at me and goes "Do you want to get dinner?"

I just stared blankly and stupidy responded "I don't get out until 10"

I was dumbfounded. The man has at least 25-30 years on me.

So he goes, "No, not tonight. But I want to take you out, maybe to a movie also"

Meanwhile my line was growing so he stepped aside, hoping he'd leave but he waited.

I asked him if he was serious. He said of course, during which he wouldn't break eye contact. I started to get flushed, I think he mistook it for flattery. So he writes down his number, and has the gawl to say it'd be platonic. My smile wouldn't fade because I wasn't sure what was really going on...you know, that nervous chuckle you give? Yeah, that was me.

I honestly can't stop laughing at it though. It had to be the most random thing that's ever happened to me. It's sad, when a grown man whom I'm pretty sure is divorced and has kids my age, has to go to this level. I'm not Anna Nicole, I don't need a sugar daddy.

I just don't know. I hope if I don't call him he stays out of my store. Oh god the akwardness if I ever saw him again. Sheesh
