So..I was at work today, and I asked if I could work through dinner rush to get some extra hours that I somehow missed out on. So, my boy works dinner rush (which is why I usually don't see him at work), and he walks in, and I start uncontrollably blushing, smiling, and giggling. And then he says "Hey." And I immediately have to put on my poker face and be just like "Yeah, hey" all whatever and stuff. And throughout the shift I had to do that. I felt weird about it.
I also had to do things like tell him to stop using so much cheese..and then he was still over-cheesing and I went over and demonstrated the proper measuring techniques. I felt like a jackass, so I texted him "<3 don't be mad!" And he didn't respond. Still hasn't.
So, towards the end of my shift, he was doing the thing he was doing when I first met him, sort of angrily chopping onions that we don't need. I looked to see if anyone was around, and walked up and went "Hey, are you mad?...Are you ok?" and he just wasn't responding to me. Finally I knocked on the table he was using and he took his headphones out and was like "I'm fine." So I went, "Are you sure? Because I'm pretty sure we have onions..." and he just put his headphones back in and stopped talking to me again.
This is exactly what I didn't want to happen. So um...shit. I sent him a text just now telling him I felt like a jackass. If this sentence is still here, he hasn't responded. I really hope that this doesn't end the way I think it's about to end.
So, on to FML: Part Two. We have a maintenance guy who runs around all of our franchises. Friendly as fuck dude. His name...is Batman. The reason we call him Batman? Because he refuses to answer to any other name, and is completely and utterly obsessed with Batman.
He came out to fix our heat rack today, and we were making small talk like normal. Apparently the tool he needed to fix the thing was at home, so he said he'd be back around 5pm, and asked if I'd be here. I said "yes" and he said "good". Which I thought was weird because he doesn't need me there to fix the heat rack.
So he comes back and fixes things, and everyone's busy doing what we do, and he just sort of hangs around shooting the shit. At some point he talks about getting some drinks and I'm like "OOOH. MARGARITAS!" So he offers to buy me some at the restaurant across the street, and I think "Sure, why not?"
So off we go to get some drinks, where he confesses he's had a crush on me for years. :| Shit. This is not what I thought was happening. First off...he's old. He's old enough to be my dad. Secondly...like...no. NO. Third..ly, he made numerous references to fighting evil.
He offered to bring me lunch later on this week..and I was just...in shock, I didn't tell him no. FUCK. Now I have to have *this* fucking conversation.
