I Dare You...

It turns out that I have a rebellious side that comes out at times when I don't want to be made out to be a chicken.  So far there are only two people in my life that can dare me to do something and I will do it, (always within my reason and not to change my standards).  However, it has come to my knowledge recently, that if I am told I would not do something, because they think they know my personality, I have to prove them wrong.  It has happened just this past week.  

It all started last Thursday when the mascot from the Utah hockey team came to our school to be with the kids at lunch time.  The Grizzlies P.R. guy came as well, and he was VERY attractive.  I told the office ladies to work their magic and get his name and number for me.  First off, when my boss, Terry, found out that I liked him, he walked up and said "there is a girl over there that would like to know if you are single"  Then Terry came over and said he was single and that got all the lunch ladies excited.  One said, "I am going to spill some ketchup on his butt so you have to clean him up".  Others said I needed to be seductive with my broom and mop.  That was not happening.  I basically ignored him out of embarrassment. Well, it turns out that the principal was very mad at how "high school" this was and jokingly wrote down his name and number that he had given her for any questions about tickets or games.  She told the secretary to give it to me when I got into the office.  When I got it, I asked if she really asked for it and she sternly said, "NO, THAT IS SO HIGH SCHOOL. HOW WOULD IT LOOK IF I SAID, UM, ONE OF MY EMPLOYEES HAS A CRUSH ON YOU, CAN I HAVE YOUR NUMBER FOR HER?"  She said, "you never would call him anyway."  I told her I would have, but she didn't believe me.  So there was the challenge.  

That night after work I googled him and found his email address.  I emailed him this; 

Hi Jerome, my name is Lauri.  I work at Jordan Hills where you just visited with Grizzbee.  I was the one who showed you where the lunchroom was.  Well here is my question...  Are you too busy to go out sometime?  Feel free to think I am weird or crazy.  The office secretaries told me I should call you, but I thought this would be less threatening to you because you could just delete this and never respond.  Just trying to make it easy for you to "Just say no"  :)  Well let me know what you think, or not.  Just a little bit about me, I am from Minnesota, born and raised.  I am 25 and single.  I went to BYU-Idaho and have a bachelors in psychology.  I am trying to get into grad school, if not, then massage therapy school.  There are six kids in my family and I am the third.  My brother, who is the oldest, is getting divorced and has 2 daughters. My sister, who is the youngest, is married and has a boy and a girl.  Have fun and I will hopefully talk to you later.  
Sorry if this scares you. :)

The next morning I had an email from him saying "Here is my personal cell number, give me a ring." I called him after work that day and we just talked for a little while.  I will let you know if anything else comes from this, but no worries, I am not expecting anything.  I just did it out of spite. :) By the way when my principal heard what I did and called him she said, but you don't even know him.  I told her that is what dating is for.  P.S. She is still single.
