A Peek Into My Brain

So here's how my brain works:

I went after class to American Eagle at the new mall they built right near my house. I went to AE because Erica works there as a stock supervisor, and I wanted to try on a pair of pants.

I walk into the store and am not greeted. At all. I spend about 10 or 12 minutes browsing aimlessly with not a single person even attempting to approach me to help. I spend another three minutes becoming aware of the fact that there isn't a single pair of 36X30 pants anywhere in the store. I grab a random pair of the pants that I'd like to try on and approach what turned out to be the store manager. She confirms that they do not carry that size (though they do carry 36X32, and 34X30). I then ask her if I could try on a particular pair in 36Xanything. She agrees:

Manager: "Erica, can you bring me a pair of pants..."
Me: "Is that Erica ****??? Tell her Nathan says hi"
Manager: "Mumbly bumblies...Nathan...mumblerz...she says that she'll be right out"

So I walk around a little bit and took a bunch of stuff. Erica comes walking out with a couple pairs. She has a nose ring javascript:void(0)that I've never noticed before:

Erica: "Hey!"
Me: "Hey! I've never noticed your nose ring before"
Erica: "Oh yeah, I actually just got it yesterday"
Me: "Oh, I like it...it looks good"
Erica: "Thanks" *looks over shoulder*
Me: "Are you busy?"
Erica: "Sort of, we got a huge shipment of boxes today, and my personal goal is to get them all in stock tonight."
Me: "Oh, okay" *discouraged, for some reason* "Well, can I ask you something real quick?" *intending to ask her out*
Erica: "Yeah, what's up?" *hint of excitement? maybe*
Me: *suddenly anxious* "What did we do today? I missed class. Did I miss anything important?" *ashamed, maybe noticeable physically*
Erica: *something* "Oh, no, there was a presentation"
Me: "a FOOD presentation?!" *realize that makes me sound pathetically addicted to food* "What region??"
Erica: "Indonesia"
Me: *legitimately surprised* "Oh...I guess that's cool"
Erica: "Yeah, it was alright...alot of cinnamon though" *disgusted face*
Me: "I love cinnamon!" *realize that this isn't even necessarily true; want to kill self for idiocy*
Erica: "Eh, it's okay, but there was just so much of it"
Me: "Ah, thaz no good" *why the hell did I just say "thaz"???*
Erica: "Yeah, okay, so do you need a dressing room?"
Me: "Yeah" *no*
Erica: "Well, it was nice that you came in! I'll see you"
Me: "Mumble mumble, byeeee" *I'm an idiot*

I then actually do try on the pants. Surprisingly, the 36X32 actually fits really well, even lengthwise. Weird.

I walk out of the dressing room area then with the two pairs folded up in my arms, and I see Erica with her purse on her shoulder standing at a computer with her manager standing next to her.

*Is she trying to get out of here before I get out of the dressing room?*

Erica: "Hey, how'd they fit?"
Me: "Actually really well"
Erica: "Really?!"
Me: "Yeah, I was surprised"
Erica: "Hmm...so you coming in reminded me that I need to go on my lunch" *is she suggesting that I go on her break with her?*
Me: "Oh, okay..." *notice manager standing awkwardly next to me*
Erica: "You can buy those over at that register if you want"
Me: "Oh, okay"
Erica's manager: "I'll walk you out" *did Erica just get escorted away from me? Maybe she told her manager that i'm creepy and to help her get out of there before I started talking to her again*

I then say bye and don't see quite exactly where she went. I stand in line for a few minutes, and then end up just handing the pants to the register girl and walking away.

I figure that maybe Erica wanted to get away from me. Who knows though, until I get home and get this message on Facebook:

"It's cool you came in. I was going to take my lunch (which I totally forgot about) and stick around so I didn't seem so hectic, but my boss shooed me out. So I just went and got pierced. But yeah, you didn't miss anything in class. Just a presentation really."

Which makes sense, because she went across the way to Icing, which is like wannabe richer Claire's. I'm stuck on this part:

"I was going to take my lunch (which I totally forgot about) and stick around so I didn't seem so hectic, but my boss shooed me out."

Doesn't that mean that she took her lunch with the intention of hanging out with me? Am I totally off base on this? Was the boss a nuisance to both of us? By the way, the boss was a girl, not a guy.

Let me know.
