Texting a girl?

So, this Saturday I went out and hit it off with a bartender at Hooters (no I didn't go there for the girls. Cheap beer and decent wings are hard to come by in an area lacking in good dive bars without the posh vibe I so despise in a watering hole). Last few hours we were just chatting and by the time I left - about an hour after close - I had gotten her number.

Now I am not exactly what could be called a ladies man. I am a bigger dude (230, 6 foot), mildly autistic so I am an awkward basted. I have literally only been on 4 dates in my 26 years due to having zero clue how to conduct a conversation without botching it. But somehow me - the quiet dude sitting at the end of the bar shooting the shit with another guy at the bar between rounds of banter with the bartender- got the number of a girl so far out of my league it left me wondering if I was hallucinating.

So my dilemma is this. How do I start the conversation over text and when do I send the text? If she doesn't text back how long do I wait before trying again or do I try at all? Do I go back to the bar and sit in her section and revive the conversation or is that too creepy? Help an awkward dude out here. I am not looking to make a one nighter. Not my bag. I'm looking for long term.
