Sewing the Seeds of Love

     So I'm off driving, and decide to stop at media play to see if there were any cd's or movies I wanted. There is one cashier there who is fairly attractive and pretty chatty so I tend to flirt with her on occasion. (ginger in case you want to stop by media play and figure out who I'm talking about) Not like I plan on it going anywhere, but those are the fun ones to flirt with anyway because there's no pressure. Besides, the only other girls I'm interested are either not interested or moving away in a month... So I go flirt with her again and then take off and continue my drive around the springs. I decide to go through Garden of the Gods and take a few pictures and on my way back I think, hey... Maybe I should ask her to go out some time... I mean whats the worst that could happen. Not counting the obvious answer of a school bus crashing through the front of the store and killing us all, I figure the absolute worst that could happen is that she'll say 'Get lost loser' but frankly I'm not really attached to her in anyway so it's not like it's going to break my heart or ruin my whole life when she says no.

     So I start heading back and decide that if I'm going to do it, I might as well pick her up some flowers because as we all know I'm a freak, and think it's at least mildy amusing to get people flower seeds instead of actuall flowers... besides, I'm guessing it's a lot less intimidating if some stranger brings you flower seeds rather than bringing real flowers. I stop off at Hugh M Woods, by some seeds a light fixture to replace one I broke in my bathroom and head over to media play.

     At this time I'm thinking "WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU THINKING!?!?!" but I figure I've gotten this far, I might as well go through with it now. I walk in, and just my luck there is only 1 person in her line when I get their, so I get into line behind him ready to hand her some flower seeds. attempt to say something witty, and ask her if she's working tomorrow or has plans for the 4th of July...

     Hmm... that's funny, I could swear the guy standing in the line in front of me just asked her out on a date... yup, he sure did... isn't that Ironic... he walks away after she tells him no and as soon as he's out the front door the other cashier starts laughing at her because apparently this is a fairly common occurance that guys ask her out all the time... what stupid guys! Oh, this is funny... haha... Alrighty then, I think maybe now is not the time to ask her out.

     She turns back to me and smiles ready for me to hand over my purchase, of course she comments on both the flake who just asked her out and the fact that this is my second time to media play in the last 2 hours...

     Think quick, what have I got to work with, lets see she just commented on guys who ask her out constantly at work, I've been here twice today and I always wait to see her, and she's waiting for me to hand her someting to purchase, and of course the only thing I've got in my hands are a pack of flower seeds...

     I take a half second to look around and grab, in what was a stroke of pure genius, a gift card which I made out to Greg for his birthday. Afterwards I sheepishly made my way back to my car, still with my flower seeds in tow...

Am I pathetic or what?
