Foolish to think I matter...

I know it's foolish to think I even matter to Obsession.There are times though that I think in the year that I've gotten to know him, I think we'd be friends for a while. We seem to have a lot in common. He seems to really enjoy our random chats. But something someone said this morning reminds me I'm just one of the MANY that swoon over him. lol Why would I stand out? And once I'm local, his text and email communication sucks... So for the next two weeks while I'm in the local office I'm gonna get a feel for how bad it will be when I'm gone for good.

We had some fun this week though. One moment of flirting that made my week! I was telling him about my car not starting, when I was leaving for the day I went to ask if they'd give me a jump if I needed one. My mind went straight to the gutter and I mentioned that right before asking, if I needed a jump who would be willing to jump me. Obsession's hand shot straight up. lol

When I got to my car it ended up needing a jump so I called Obsession and he came down to help. But it was close enough to his ending time that he said he took off and would follow me up to make sure I got home ok. That ... was super sweet. I teased him that he was kind of a slow driver and he said Oh really? I guess if you have to pull over I'll drive by slowly and wave. haha

And of course was hyper sensitive to where he was on the freeway all the way home. I mentioned that he kept up with us pretty well and he said he wondered if that was me. The next day he commented a few times wondering if that was my car and commented on a couple things that make my car uniquely mine. Meaning he was hyper aware of me on the freeway as well.

I was invited to go out to breakfast with their unit for one of the girls' birthdays but I was leaving half day. I originally told them I would go but the more I thought about it, the more I realized I wasn't going to be able to if I was leaving for half a day. When I told them I wasn't going to join them, they seemed disappointed. Obsession said damn those work ethics! I found out he wasn't going to be back before I left so I gave him a hug and wished him a Happy Christmas.

Earlier that day he asked what I was doing for New Years and I told him nothing much, that my Husband Creature was going to go play D & D with his friends. He seemed surprised I didn't have a party to go to or that I wasn't planning on getting out and drinking. lol I'll admit I have my times, but lately drinking has been the furthest thing from my mind. He said he'd send a drunk selfie. I wonder if I'll have the guts to ask for one. He mentioned going to the Rose Bowl Parade the day before to check out the floats. I got home that night and my Husband suggested it too!

Whoa... I just got a text from Obsession. Aside from the day he told me he couldn't make it to my Husband Creature's birthday party back in July, this would be his first initiated text. Yay! hehe He thanked me for some surprise cookies I left him yesterday as I left early. He also sent me his units Christmas photo, which I was told I should have been part of their group photo but it wasn't a photo of them at all. Just their names and a bunch of books pertaining to their unit. It was kinda cute.

Oh and I went to a concert at his kids school. He said he was going to be there. When I saw him the next week he asked if I was there. Turns out there were a couple of performances. He was at the Saturday morning one and I was at the Friday night one. He said he looked for my blond hair. We got a good chuckle because the first thing I noticed is there were A LOT of Mexicans, and he said he noticed that too and that it was easy to see I wasn't there since there weren't a lot of blonds hanging out.

And apparently he just noticed my sisters salon that I've mentioned to him a few times. Oddly he recognized it from photos of my sisters puppy shower I was showing him. He was in the area at a tile place, I keep forgetting to ask if he was there to get his kitchen tile. Either way, I showed him the app that she uses to book her appointments and I didn't realize I was one of the first sets of photos for showcasing her work. Photos from my wedding day. He looked for a while at them. Noted one that showed a natural smile vs the others that were more posed.

As I'm going over some of this stuff I do think he may think of me more than I originally felt in the beginning of this post. I had forgotten some of it. But for now... I'll accept what I get since it's gonna be slim pickins for the next two weeks... *sigh*

Bad Hair Day turned into a good day...

So I wasn't expecting to see Obsession today. He said he was calling off to fill out an application but he ended up showing up today. At first it was awkward. His door was shut and he had a sign up saying "Busy, please knock." I was kind of annoyed. I felt ugly today. Felt like oh Obsession won't be there so I don't have to try as hard ... pfft! Stupid...

He shows up, my hair is NOT cooperating. So I say f-it and pull it back. I happened to walk out into the hall when he and a new girl in his unit walked by and she said, oh you look different with your hair up, I like it! He seemed to take it in but just continued to walk.

Later I came in and he happened to have his office open since he was heating up food. He looked at me intently and said "You do look different with your hair pulled up like that." His coworker was like, yeah right, you look really pretty. And he said yeah you do, I like it! And I was like, it's a bad hair day. He said well then I guess it turned into a good hair day. lol

*sigh*

I was telling my best friend about this. It's funny, she's been experiencing the same issue. Yet today she finally said she is trying to figure out how to make me look at this differently to not get all twitterpated. She understands but also doesn't see the end of it since I work with him. But just having her say something like that smacked me back into reality... *for now* lol

And the cuteness continues...

Ugh .. Winks, side glances, smiles, eyebrow raises ... The cuteness continues...
