How on earth did you control your emotions when your unrequited lover Olivia Newton-John walked into your restaurant and calmly ordered the daily special? Did you want to slip her a note that she'd keep forever in her personal keepsake treasure box?
OK, so I was a total, 100% chicken and said nothing. I probably thought about it every time I went up to the table, but no, I said nothing. She was lovely, btw. Exactly as you'd think she would be. I don't think there was any shortage of waiters in her life who had one level of unrequited level or another for her. Maybe I should have asked for the signed headshot. Maybe I kept the signed credit card. Who can remember? Haha. Fun trivia note: I met and married my wife in that restaurant when I waited on her - and I did have the courage to ask her so maybe ONJ helped me work up to it. :-) Anyway, ONJ, RIP.

Thanks for that...I was dying to hear your mental process at that moment of ultimate truth.
