There's this really nice young couple that always come into Officeworks (as in, I see them regularly but I only work one day a week during semester so this may be a skewed perception). They are very polite, they are really nice to each other (isn't it awkward when you get a husband/boyfriend and wife/girlfriend who are bickering or angry at their kids?) and just generally adorable. The guy is pretty good looking (again, a bit short for my tastes) but my thoughts never even wandered into fantasy zone (am I the only one who easily pictures my future life with random cute guys on the street?) because I'm basically in love with this couple. I don't even know their names but they are just amazing together.
I want to be godmother to their future children.
The point of this long winded, borderline stalker introduction was that they came into the store again yesterday. I saw them enter and smiled to myself (creepy). When they came up to the register to make their purchases, I hesitated for a moment then went for it, "Hey, did I see you guys last Saturday?"
There was a moment of silence. And then they both cracked up in embarrassed laughter.
"Probably, we basically live here!" said the girl.
"Oh God..." the guy kept saying, laughing in this cute embarrassed way. The girl was also somewhat embarrassed but gave less shits than her boyfriend.
"It's nothing to be embarrassed about, guys!" I said, laughing with them (we are basically best friends at this point). "It's just that I only work one day a week; Saturdays."
"Exactly!" said the girl. "You're here every Saturday too!"
At the end of our interaction (the Start of Something New, I should say. A new friendship has clearly blossomed. I fully expect to be appointed godmother/maid of honour), I said, "See you guys later. Have a good one!"
The girl replied, "Yeah, maybe we'll see you next Saturday!"
Oh, my God. I love them. I'm so effing weird.

Lovely greets Nessa
I love my regulars. I also have this young couple who come in almost every weekend, saw them in the shopping centre on the way to work the other day... a smile was exchanged. (clearly I will have a role in their wedding, also)
There's this one guy, who always calls to make customer orders, put things on hold, etc - it's gotten to the point where he'll call us and launch into his request and we all know who it is.
Can't tell if real person or Nigerian scam bot. Will add you anyway because I would still be flattered if a Nigerian scammer tried to scam me. Ps I'm not rich.
to lil m: you know what you need to do next time... start a creepy conversation with them and freak them out
