A look at how times have changed in regards to who persues whom in courting. |
So I’m sittin at the bar with this beer and a cigarette, right? Up pulls this broad beside me who dumps her keys down beside the ashtray, looks me dead in the eye and says, “You know what?” I ask her, “What’s the deal?” She breaks it down then. “You seem interesting to me right now.” “Yeah?” I ask, waiting for her point or proposition or whatever. “Maybe I won’t after we’re done talking but…” her voice trails off as she glances over her shoulder. I take another drag on my smoke. This was something else, man! “I got a nice crib, man, whoever you are. Three cars too. You might like ‘em!” “Oh really?” I ask her keeping a straight face. She smiles briefly and motions for the bartender. He comes over right away tossing a towel over his shoulder. “What can I get for ya?” “Gin. No, no… uh…” she begins, looking at her watch. “Make it a Bloody Mary!” “You got it,” he replies with a knowing grin. The stranger then turns to me again and shrugs. I smile, signaling for her to continue. “As I was saying, I gotta lotta shit, man.” “Yeah?” “Yeah.” “Cool!” I respond with a nervous laugh. Then she just breaks it down. “Man, I want access to yo skinny ass! Yo mind AND body, aight? In exchange fa access to all this crap I got!” |
