Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

I put a dollar in the tip jar, but you didn't see me do it. I thought about taking it out and waiting until you saw me, but I decided against it. That would be fake, and I want our relationship to be real.

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

You asked me what I wanted.
I wanted to say 'you.'
I got a 99 cent burger instead.

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

Do you have any idea how many songs they wrote about you?

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

Listen, I got sidetracked, okay?

And there's too much pressure right now, too much - everyone wants this to work and I just, fucking, I, listen - this is going to work, we just need to let it happen, let it work its course. I know, I know - shhh. We'll make it, okay?

;)

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

I'm coming over.

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

You know how you can be completely quiet around someone and not feel compelled to say anything and be completely comfortable?

I think that's how I am with you.

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

I drank a lot of Mountain Dew tonight.

...

I mean a lot of Mountain Dew.

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

I hope you don't like guys in bands
or with cool tattoos
or who wear tight jeans
or who talk to you in public.

But I think you might.

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

My space heater keeps me warm, but I wouldn't need it anymore if I had you here.

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

Tomorrow, you may notice the smell of a sea breeze accompanying me through your door.

That would be my new shampoo.

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

I understand why you didn't talk to me today.
You were all business.
But that's what I like about you -- your devotion to your career.

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

I watched a few movies this past weekend and wanted to tell you what I thought of them.

Chisholm '72 and The Prestige - Without you/10.

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

Elections are coming up.

I have voted you treasurer of my heart.

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

Where were you last night? I went to buy your burgers and you weren't there. I couldn't sleep last night thinking you were sick or or or dead. Dead on the side of the road somewhere.

Just.

Tell me you're okay.

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

I want to take you to the beach.
I'd like to make a castle for us.

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

You're such a mystery to me. What kind of music do you like? Whose clothes do you wear? My friend was telling me yesterday that people think I'm mysterious, but I think that's just because I come off as gay.

I'm not gay.

<3

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

We're having Poker Night tonight! I wanted to invite you but it's sort of a 'just-the-guys' thing, ha. Besides, I don't think I'm ready for you to meet my friends. I want us to get to know each other on our own first. Anyway, I think I'm going to buy a burger from you tomorrow. See you soon!

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

What is your name? Is it Karen? Or Rebecca? Maybe it's something cool like Layne. Or a boy's name, like Sam (short for Samantha). Anyway, I'll keep thinking.

Dear Girl at Fat Larry's,

I am in class right now, but I am thinking of you. What are you doing? I bet you're off work by now. Do you have any hobbies? I bet you do. That's what I like about you. Anyway, I'll see you later (I hope).
