> When I strode into the condiment aisle, I hadn’t expected to see a girl in a leather jacket the color of maraschino cherries and a long braid the color of strawberry jam. I paused for a moment, to consider whether I should browse the peanut butter as planned, or just silently observe her like a bird in the wild. Not to be conspicuous, I took a step toward the duck sauce and pretended to consider the selections. My head started swimming with curiosity about her. I hadn’t even exchanged hellos with her yet, and already there were so many questions I wanted to ask. My eyes meandered to her shopping basket, and silently petitioned her grocery items to divulge her secrets to me. I was a detective, seeking to unlock the great mystery by assessing the puzzle pieces I’d discovered. They were lamb, mangoes, kale, lime sherbet, licorice candies shaped like little scottie dogs, and a star-shaped ice cube tray. Already, I knew that I wanted to relax at her place for the evening. I wanted her to brew me her favorite tea and watch her favorite movie with her. I wanted to hear about the funny thing that happened while she was out for a walk, and her latest idea for a fun project. I already knew what her laugh sounded like, how warm her hugs were. Suddenly she glanced at me, and I found my thoughts momentarily dipped in her dark chocolate eyes. She smiled the polite smile one gives a stranger in passing, and turned to leave. She had a jar of German brown mustard in her hand. While she walked away, I remained there sorting out reality. Were she and I longtime lovers out for a quick grocery run? Or had I really not even learned her name yet? As she walked out of my life, I willed her to turn around and ask if I was coming. She turned the corner. I shifted my attention back to the shelves. They were out of peanut butter.

If you were in this situation, what would you do?

I’d go ahead and get a streaining order against me on her behalf and save her the work haha 🙂

One time I was ata (I think it was a Sam Goody) chain music store. Walking down an aisle and a girl well within my visual tolerances (I’m a birl guy, sadly they are almost always lesbians) but I didn’t pay her any mind. Walk by her and my nostrils flair. I spent the next half hour walking up and down the aisles randomly looking at various letters of artists acting like I was just following random threads of thought everytime getting the biggest whiff of her I could.

Never once did she pay me the tiniest bit of attention, to me she was yet another shred of proof that fae live among us.

Last time I saw a woman like that writhing seductively in front of a cabinet in the frozen goods asile, she turned to catch my eye but I’m afraid I was far more caught by the most agonising-looking sunburn that made her front look as red as the rest of her hair/outfit. She had obviously been enjoying the cool air! 😮😃
