There's a girl at work that I have an enormous crush on. I think about her multiple times just about everyday. I've never been in a relationship and I've never confessed to a girl before so I'm very socially retarded with respect to dating.
But I decided that I don't want to let her leave without at least trying on her; I need to at least let her know how I feel. The problem is I'm not sure how to confess properly especially under these circumstances.
In addition to being dumb about these things I also don't tend to see her as often anymore. Our schedules don't overlap as much anymore so it's difficult to get in a one on one conversation, speak with her in the break room or ask if she wants to have lunch somewhere. The only sure way I have to communicate in this stage is her work mailbox; I don't know how best to ask for her number.
She catches me with a hello first most of the time. One time she walked by and waited looking at me as I was communicating with someone else until I was free to say hello to her.
She also tends to laugh when we talk. I don't know if she's started to do it more often or if I've just been noticing it but she laughs at things I do or say that I find dumb or even awkward.
I don't know if she has a boyfriend. I tried to get some information from her but she has always mentioned doing things with her family; on Christmas, her birthday, hanging out on the weekend, she never mentioned doing anything with a boyfriend.
I'd like to get her to know how I feel before Valentine's so maybe we can do something that day, if anything happens between us.
But my basic problem is I don't know how to proceed from here.

1) Confessing is never a good idea. Asking a woman out makes it pretty obvious that you like her.
2) If you see each other in person, asking her out by e-mail or text is not gonna roll. Bad idea.
3) This is not that impressive:
>She catches me with a hello first most of the time. One time she walked by and waited looking at me as I was communicating with someone else until I was free to say hello to her.
>She also tends to laugh when we talk. I don't know if she's started to do it more often or if I've just been noticing it but she laughs at things I do or say that I find dumb or even awkward.
She probably is just nice, that's all.
Finally: Ask her out in person. Don't be surprised if she says "no". But hey, maybe she says "yes". Good luck.
Don't get involved romantically or even casually with coworkers.

Fair enough. I don't necessarily think those bits you quoted mean anything more than her just being friendly; I wanted to note them because it helped provide context. I hardly consider them impressive when I've never dated a woman before.
Getting romantic with coworkers is never a good idea. 10 times out of 10 , things will get super weird. Chances are it won't work out. There are so many other options out there for you. Why jeopardize your job?
