At lunch, I not only developed a taste for the "Memphis" taco at Taco Mamacita.
I developed a HUGE CRUSH on my too-handsome-for-words waiter named Nate.
If I had the nerve, I would have thought of something slightly cooler to do that FIST PUMP said hottie when he asked "did you go to highschool around here?" I told him I'd grown up in SC and used this as an opp to see how old he is. When he said he graduated in '97, I heard friends throwing rice in the distance. If only I knew how to be cool around men.
Now... to get the nerve to go back and introduce myself for real. or something.
WHAT DO I DO? This is (a) bigger than the time I had a crush on my chiropractor and (b) the first time I've had a crush on a boy in a long time. YES, I'm 30 and get crushes.
help.
ADDENDUM: if you, handsome man, happen upon this post. I am of course joking about the marriage rice. kind of.

Here is what you do - go directly to Mamacita and BE YOURSELF because you are gorgeous and hilarious and charming and sincere and everything amazing. If he doesn't love you instantly he's ridiculous. I loved you instantly and I'm a hard sell.
