I HAVE A REALLY BIG MOUTH

so, i'm going to grab something quick for lunch from the snack shop in the lobby of my building. i exit the elevator, and practically run into Ben - the newest hot guy in the building. Ben and I have run into each other a few times on the elevator, but nothing more than meaningless chatter. Anyway, he says "hey Red! how are ya?" and we begin with the small-talk. I stopped in mid-conversation and informed him that i was stopping to get something to eat. I noticed he had his briefcase and his car keys in hand, so I knew he was headed out to the parking garage. I told him to have a great afternoon, and he was gone.

I head into the snack shop, and Bob and Sherry are working as they normally are. They are an older couple who run this shop to ease their post-retirement boredom. Under my breath I said, "he is so cute" and Sherry happened to hear me. So she began to inquire who he was, what he did, etc. I finished the Ben information conversation by very confidently saying "he's my new boyfriend, he just doesn't know it yet." I hear someone behind me laugh lightly, turn around - AND IT'S BEN. he had come back to chat with me some more, and i had no idea he was in the shop.

GRRRRRRRRRr

my face was about as red as my hair, but i smiled politely at all of them and wished them a great afternoon. thank God he got cornered by one of his co-workers and i escaped fairly unscathed. i really need to watch what i say and when i'm saying it..... DO'H!
