Valentine's stalker
When I was 17 I was on the road full time. While on the road I met a young gentlemen who was the lighting director for all the events. Every night after my set I would sneak to the back up in the rafters and watch the rest of the show with him while he did all this crazy lighting stuff. It was completely innocent and we talked about staying virgins and not kissing anyone till our wedding. Ummmmm, let's keep it movin. So, Valentine's rolled around and I had zero experience in this department. He called me at home the day before Vday and I was sooooooo excited. The tour had just went on break for a couple days and he was already calling. I was a giddy girl when he called me. He asked me " Nik, I need to know if you are going to be home tomorrow......I have something very special coming to you". I was like.......ummmmm, yeah I happen to be sitting at home all day! We hung up and I started to panic!!!!!! I asked my Mom what I should do. I was like "oh no, V-day is tomorrow and I didn't get him anything"! So I called a florist in his home town of like Indiana or something. I sent him a balloon bouquet and a Teddy bear.....maybe even chocolates. I was quite the little spender when I was a kid. The afternoon of Valentine's rolled around and FINALLY my Mom came into my room and said "a card came in the mail for you". I opened the card and there was like an elephant or puppy on the front. Inside it said something like "so nice having a pal like you.Your friend, Justin". I was mortified. I received a picture from him the next day of what looked like an assorted funeral arrangement of flowers and bears from myself. His Mom was happy to have the decorations. When the tour went back out he didn't talk to me much anymore. I guess it was a little overkill. That stands as one of my most embarrassing moments. Hope you all enjoy Valentine's day and show lot's of love to the people who really matter.
