i'm having lunch at the green spot, a local flea market/swap meet.
outside the door...a beautiful young woman with an irresistably-exotic style pedals up on a fat-tire high-rise cruiser...and i'll be honest, i made a spectacle of myself leaning way over and craning my neck for a prolonged good look...and she saw me...and she did NOT approve.
when she came inside & walked by my table she made it a very clear point of looking exactly away from me.
so i had to chase her down, and politely explain myself: "excuse me, miss, but at the risk of offending you even more...i was staring like a fool because i really like your bicycle."
(cue yakov smirnoff: "it's funny, because it's true!")
ah, finally...what a wonderful smile it was, too...it lit up my whole day
