i was waitressing at a bar/restaurant/nightclub called Maxwell's. at the time i had completely given up on boys, but that's another blog. i saw a guy standing outside the window texting. i quickly told the hostess that if he comes in, be sure to seat him in my section. it wasn't often that cute guys were around so i was taking advantage. his friends met him for dinner and through the meal i did my best to flirt with him as much as you can without being a creepy annoying waitress. when he was leaving i knew i had to say something, i asked if anyone had ever told him that he looked like SAM ROCKWELL.
actor Sam Rockwell was fresh in my mind because he had a new movie out called MOON. he said no, and didn't know who that was, and seemed to not know that it was a compliment. i told him it was, he said thanks and left.
it was the strangest thing, but i just felt like there was something between us...i couldn't stop talking about him and the next week i hoped he'd come in again. he didn't. i figured i'd never see him again. only a few days after that i received a random facebook message from a boy named John Foti. i couldn't see his profile and his picture was distant, but he claimed to be the SAM ROCKWELL guy. i was sure one of my friends was playing a joke on me, but sure enough, it was him. he looked up the bar and found me in their friends. he said that he thought i was a nice waitress and looked up that SAM guy and didn't think it looked like him.
after that we became friends, pen pals really, writing back and forth and getting to know each other. we met up for drinks, and eventually dates. we rode bikes & went to concerts. we went on trips, & moved in together.
& now he is my HUSBAND, john foti, my boy who plays accordion.
