In my last three posts I talked about my standards in regards to women I will go on dates with. I said that my three criteria are, 1) that they are available, 2) that they are interested, and 3) that they act like they give a shit about taking care of themselves. I wanted to include that young woman at that business whom I go on about so much, but I figured by the third post that she probably did not meet the standards regarding availability and interest.
That's too bad, but people need to realize that it can take a lot for someone like me to put themselves out there and ask a woman out. The thought of going into that woman's place of employment and asking her out when I can still cite the fact that she never talked to me when I found myself around her, well, I lack the confidence to ask her out. There, I said it.
I have a few songs that bring her to mind that I listen to on a regular basis. Chris Gaffney's "Waltz for Minnie" and pretty much everything on Chet Baker Sings remind me of her. A lyric from "Bagavon Decreed" by the Flatlanders also reminds me of her. There were times she would give me a warm smile when I saw her at her place of employment, and I wouldn't really think that she had earned that gesture. The lyric from "Bagavon Decreed" that brings those times to mind comes at the end of the song; "You say one day soon we will all stand as brothers/ Till then I guess we'll just stand around."
