Creeper in the Stacks:

So there I was reading; English and Grammar: A Basic Refresher, A People's History of the United States, A People's History of the United States 1492-2000, A Severe Decline: Remaking our Constitution, and Algebra: the Mathematics You Didn't Want to Remember. I'm minding my own business and taking notes, not that I'm in college or any school for that matter, but I've been feeling rather stupid of late and just wanted to do some refreshing... I plan on making this a daily thing, but we shall see if I truly want to handle the self imposed homework... in fact I'm failing as a self imposed teacher/student while I do this blog I have 5 math problems and a 1 pg paper on Nathaniel Bacon and a 1 pg paper on American Slavery and peoples rights... haha I suck.
But alas, the point to my great heading, so there I was reading and taking notes while sitting at the table in Borders' Cafe, when I look up for a moment to take my mind off of the sadness of slavery. And there is this woman, staring at me. It isn't that "oh hmmm... drifting off into space" staring. Or the "oh she has a pretty hair do" staring... but the ever more awkward "she is sexy and I want to rip all her clothing off" staring. Having been studying for over an hour I hadn't even noticed that she had sat down, or for how long she had indeed been staring at me. But now I felt the urge to look back to the books and seemly seem as though I was studying for my life. A few minutes later I sneeked a peek and she was still staring but this time while I was catching a glimpse she got up and starting pack her things. As I was giving myself a mental pat on the back for getting away unscathed, the chair across from me scraps the floor and she sat down, Oh My God.
She just smiled and asked "I saw that you were studying pretty much everything I am... and Oh! look at your notes, I bet you are really smart, huh? Well I could use some serious help in History and Politics, and huh... your math is wrong here... here ... and here... why don't I help you study that and you can help me study this?" I hadn't gotten any words together in my head, let alone out of my mouth and she was attacking my math paper. And handing her history notes to me. I looked over them and stayed quiet, just adjusting a few things here and there, rewriting somethings for her, and generally being as quiet as possible. Occassionally showing her my WEDDING ring, but she didn't make any comment.
Around ten minutes later I was thinking of ways to get out of the Cafe and run with my tail between my legs and not look back when she pulls out her wallet and casually mentions that I look like a hot tea kind of girl, I didn't say anything, and she smiled and was like... alright I'll guess and you better like it. And up she went to bye TEA! I didn't mean for that to happen but I still hadn't put any words together for a yes, no, maybe, or What the Hell Is Going ON HERE! She came back with this ABSOLUTELY delicious smelling hot tea, it turns out that I think its like my new favorite, something with pumpkin and cream and yummm... she saw me take a sip and smile and she clapped her hands and said how she knew I would like it. After showing me some of my problems that I had gotten wrong and where I had gone wrong, she asked me to explain what I thought about her history paper... I told her that she needed to expand here, get rid of this there, and just generally delve deeper into the topic and not be so vast. She sighed, I mean a literal, "oh my goodness...your so dreamy when you talk... i wish i could use your mouth..." you get the point, sigh. She waited another 30 seconds and then started packing up her things and talking about what school she went to, what he name was and how she wouldn't mind studying with me again. THEN SHE HANDED ME HER NUMBER, and kissed the back of my hand. And like that she was gone. I'm terrified to go back to Borders, and interested in how my math problems turn out! Anyways, that was my random story of life for the day... what about yours?
