Tonight i was leaving work when my friend, Ed, who is closing his bookstore across the street from my business called and told me he had lots of Christies and Sotheby's art catalogues for me as a goodbye gift... he knows i love them...so i went over and sorted thru them and was leaving with a box full of Old Masters drawings and prints, Impressionist prints and etchings...modern art prints from private collections....Classic Beauty in a box. Score!
To be nice, Bookstore Ed carried them all to my car and then jumped in for a smoke out of the cold and wind.
We talked and laughed and smoked for about 30 minutes, during which time at least three neighborhood types, including old friend David, walked by and pretended not to see us in the car....???
At first it puzzled me. They all know my car...they always stop to say hi... then i realized that they were thinking 'oh yea, the divorcee is on the prowl'....dark car, cigarettes backlighting lighting Bookstore Ed and I. He got it the same time I did, and we laughed and lit up another smoke and then as David walked by pretending we weren't there, he rolled down the window and yelled out "We're going to inspiration point or should we go down to the river?"...
David did not laugh, did not stop, only walked away to the convienience store...my guess is he'll be texting my ex to tell him what he saw...
Seems i "date" without even knowing it...jeezzzuzz
