Dale Garner Carrington Jr

Well just a quick update for those of you that don't know. I met an AMAZING guy named Dale. This is the story about how we met.

Dale is a waiter at Chile's. Chile's is one of my favorite places to go and have the delicious "volcano cake". One of the guys I was dating at the time knew that and invited me to go to dinner with him on a Thursday to eat at Chile's. I didn't have plans and decided to go. We arrived at Chile's and were seated at a table on the far left side. Here is the infamous table.

I sat on the far right. Now instantly when Dale came out I thought to my self. Who is that guy?!! I know him from some where. He came to our table and asked what we would like to drink. That is when I said you look so familiar. I asked him if we went to High School together. He asked where did I go, I said Copper Hills. He went to Kean's. I told him he looked SO FAMILIAR. He agreed and left our table. I was COMPLETELY bothered that I couldn't figure out who this guy was. I was determined to find out how I knew him! EVERY TIME he came to our table I would ask him questions about where he worked before and where he lived. I'm surprised he didn't think I was a creep. My poor date. I couldn't focus on our conversation. All I could do was think up ways that I knew him. Plus the fact that I thought he was SUPER ATTRACTIVE didn't help the fact. So sadly our meal came to an end and our check came. My date wanted to pay. I felt bad for the way I acted the whole night. Talking about our waiter the whole time and the fact that I got a full meal and he only got a cup of soup. I offered to pay and was quite forceful. He reluctantly let me pay. When Dale came back with the receipt I made sure to leave him a BIG tip and with a shacking hand I left my phone number. This is what I put...... I know you!!! Call me some time- After I wrote my number I hurried and folded the tip so my date couldn't see what I wrote and GOT THE HECK OUT OF THERE! I was so nervous. I was nervous that my dated knew what I had just done and I didn't want to hurt him. Plus I DID NOT want to be there when the waiter came around to pick up his book. I was scared of rejection and what he would say. But he was all I could think about the next couple of days. I couldn't figure out how we knew each other. That night I told my mom what I had done, then waited. No response that night.
-Friday- No Call.
-Saturday-HE CALLED!!!! He called around 5 and I didn't answer. I was in the shower! He left me the cutes message. I was so thrilled that I ran upstairs to my mom and made her listen to the voice message. I was jumping up and down and smiling. FREAKING OUT!! Even called KC to ask for "Guy advice". (Kc's advice, Just be yourself. I said I will scare him if I just be myself. He said your right, just be fun then!) Well when I finally calmed down an hour later. I called him back. We talked on the phone for a good hour. We had so much in common. But there was NO WAY that we had met before Thursday. He asked me out for later that night to go to the Singles activity, JUMP and JACKS. Lets just say it was a really fun and he didn't go home tell around 3am. Since that day, I've seen him everyday since.
Dale and I have had so many crazy adventures together. I don't know how I've lived with out him in my life for so long. He is SO FUN! He makes my cheeks hurt from smiling and laughing so hard.
He is up for anything. So I put him to the test.......FACIALS! So much fun!!! I cried I was laughing so hard!!
Doesn't Dale look like the HULK!!!! I look like the wicked witch.
Dale even agrees.... I look scary!! lol
Then we went on an AMAZING date. Well all of our dates are fun. But this date was just SPECTACULAR. Everything was just perfect. We played at the Clark Planetarium and had sushi. Had an AMAZING Carmel Oreo apple. I don't even like oreos and it was amazing. Played video games. It was just a great night.
Dale walking on the moon.
Dale lost in Mars.
I love this picture!!!!
We found a a sun glass keosh. I look special!
OH BABY!
STOP ITS THE POLICE!
I love Dales face in this one!
Gangster!
That next morning, I was surprised to find flowers and teddy bear with a new watch from Dale. Thanking me for an amazing night. (How did I get so lucky?!!!)
Then for the Labor Day weekend. I invited Dale to come with me to Idaho and go to the fair with my family and extended Family. My family LOVES Dale.
We played a car game where we race against each other. Dale kicked everyone trash. I was so proud to call him my boyfriend lol.
-Not pictured. Dale and I both went on a mechanical bull. CLASSIC!
Dale got a man purse made out of fur. I wish I would have bought these furry earmuffs!!
Dale got attacked by a fake bear. This is him SCREAMING.
This is Dale petting and caressing the bear.
Now Dale is crying.
We found rings at the fair for each other.
Dale got crawdads. They are pretty good.
Guess what kinda meat this is..... taste like chicken.
Us tired after a long day at the Fair and VERY little sleep.
Dale is incredible and I'm so glad I met him. I know we will have amazing adventures in the future together and I can't wait. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH!!!!

I saw someone post a comment about wanting to meet Dale, and that she'd see him at a "Murder Mystery Dinner" and I was like "Is allison going to 2 different Murder Mystery dinners? Who is this Kate person? Does she think she's coming to my party? So i proceeded to click on that user to try to find out who she was only to discover... LOL. Didn't know she was going by THAT name! ;) Ha ha anywho, I totally forgot that you like sushi and I read about it in your post.
