a nice bus stop story
Aug. 28th, 2003 07:01 pmI met a woman at the bus stop today. Actually, she and I had shared the same stop yesterday, and today her bus almost pulled off without letting her off. That's how she started talking. We chatted for some time. We got on the bus and I asked if I could sit next to her. Eventually this sentence came out of my mouth:
"I knew you were cool when I saw you reading science fiction."
To which she replied, "By the way, I'm Liza."
So there you have it. It's okay for me to meet women at the bus stop, because they, as the odds have it, aren't trying to strike up a relationship with me. :)
Really, though, right when she started talking, I thought, "Wow, she'd totally fit at Table...." And she's older; got more grey hair than I do.
