I thought my previous "stalker blog" posts were acts of bravery on my part. After all, I WAS taking the risk that out of the 25,000 members at my church, my stalker whom I had written about would come across the blog written by him. My roommate informed me that rather than an act of bravery, this was an act of stupidity. Well here I am, taking an even greater act of stupidity. I am taking the risk that out of the 4,000+ CBU students, the one person this blog is about might read it. But oh well. All for the sake of blogging!
It all happened yesterday. I went to my spot to have some much needed time with Jesus. With my Bible and journal in hand, I plopped myself onto my comfy chair, making myself completely comfortable. After sitting there for maybe 45 minutes, some guy walks into the room and makes himself comfy on the couch next to my comfy chair. Hmm, awkward. I continued to read. Within a few minutes, he was laying down and looked like he was asleep. A few minutes went by and April walked in. "Lizzy!" she said, and then she noticed him there and made a confused facial expression. It was mutual confusion at this point.
We talked for a bit...about a lot of stuff...random stuff....weight loss, my desire to ring the giant bell, April's hip pain, etc.
A few minutes after April left, he sat up. He turns and looks at me and says, "Just so you know, neither one of you need to lose weight."
"Uhh thank you," I said.
The he said, "And...I have rung that bell before and it IS loud. And...if her head really hurts that bad, all she needs to do is crack her lower spine."
"Oh thanks," I replied semi awkwardly, "but it's her hip that hurts, not her head."
"Oh."
Awkward silence.
I went back to my reading for a few more minutes. And then he told me how he was awake the whole time. I asked him if he heard our whole conversation and he said that he had. Then I said how I was glad I didn't say anything incriminating and we both laughed. It was a good way to release some of that laughter that I was holding in. Especially since I had texted April and that made me laugh even more.
My phone rang and it was April. I made some awkward small talk with her since he was still there. As I was talking to her, he got up and decided to leave. He smiled and said goodbye and that was it.
Should I have asked him what his name was?

YES YOU SHOULD HAVE!! ;)
If you see him again...maybe ;)
haahahahhah this is awesome
You already know what his name is
I love that he felt the need to explain that he was awake the whole time lol. I'm sure you had no idea...
Was it you David? ha
hahaha if i didn't know you david, i'd be TOTALLY creeped out by your comment! hahahaha!
Oh liz! this is one of your most funny blogs ever. I felt uncomfortable reading your awkward encounter.
We had NO idea that he was awake.. I mean, I suspected it, but I didn't really think we was awake. What's REALLY funny is that I was looking at his key chain to see if we could figure out who he was! HAHA I hope he didn't know that! haha! :)
hahaha ohhh kylee :)
april, we should have looked for his id card! lol. jk!
Liz, you already know his name.
It's Mr. Right! hahah
hahahahaha.
that would be a VERY strange way to meet my mr. right.
This is Vince...I take it you consider this guy to be an option as "Mr.Right." Also, that was some random stuff to be talking about but once I realized we are talking about the April McLean, I totally understood.
hahahahah vince! he is definitely NOT an option for mr. right! and yes, april and i always have random conversations! lol.
Well, in case he finds it, i'm glad you clarified that!
When you mentioned hip pain, I laughed out loud.
hahaha i hope he never finds it! that'd be creepy! lol.
No, I'm not that guy you met. Check this out: I found you through your tweet about Pastor Chuck finishing the Bible for the seventh time. I checked your twitter page and saw that you blogged. So as usual, I had to go read your blog ('cause I'm such a fan of blogs).
Finally, I came to this. Wow, sounds like something that happened to me a while back... though not as fun as yours. Crazy stuff.
