I got situationally mangled and need to do some damage control.

I call her RLGL because of the hat she was wearing. She's hot. She works at a comic shop. I like comics. I write comics. She reads comics. She's a hot comic nerd.

I went to the shop to get my Marvel fix. She opened me. I actually had to get back to work, so I had some time constraint. I got her laughing a little bit, played around on the handshake. Then I blue screened myself. I didn't close. I didn't get the number. She was feeling me and I didn't pull the trigger.

Part of me is saying "you bitch slapped yourself, worse yet, you got Ramboed." The other part says, "go back in a week and handle yo bidness." And then comes in like that guy from Deuce Bigalow and all those Adam Sandler movies and says "you can do it! you can do it all night loooonnnng." I'm listening to the do it guy.

How do I do some damage control?
I want to be prepared next time, what can I do for round 2?
Anything I should expect from her end?
Any long term lessons I should take away (other than don't blow yourself out)?

It seems to me that the situation you're describing is pretty much a hired gun situation. I've actually been reading up on that subject and from what I have learned you need to get in some DHV stories and I would be wary about her giving you IOI's since she's a hired gun.

I'm still pretty new to this stuff so I would love to hear input from others that have more experience.
