Recommended Posts

...of my apartment complex this morning on my way to work. I live in an older residential neighborhood that has a community clubhouse and tennis courts across the street.

Two women were standing in the small parking lot just across the street from me dressed in their tennis outfits. They looked to be early-to-mid-thirtiesh.

I have no clue what they were talking about, but one of them suddenly launched into this kind of "victory dance". We're talkin' this honey was workin' it bigtime! She was gyrating and wiggling around in ways that would make a stripper blush.

I just sat there, fascinated by it all, wondering what the hell started all that. If you've seen the movie "When Harry Met Sally", you remember the fake orgasm in the restaurant and the older woman says, "I'll have what she's having."

It was one of those moments. Had I not been running really late for work I would have gone over just to say, "Uh, how ya' doin'?:$"

As I sat there, she noticed I was sitting there watching her with some sort of stupid grin on my face. She just kept on doing her happy dance.

A few moments later, she stopped and just looked at me, grinning.

I rolled down they window, said, "Wow--work it, honey!", waved and hauled ass to work.

Whatever she had, I want some.

edited to add:
I just *know* airtwardo would have said or done something incredibly cool in that situation, but I have no idea what.

Whenever I see someone doing something kind of unusual, I am drawn to them like a moth to a flame. I have this incredibly strong urge to just walk up and find out what's going on.

An old girlfriend really used to cringe when I would do that. One time we were driving through downtown Houston and there was a lady, obviously drunk, stoned, or mentally ill, out in the middle of a busy intersecion "directing traffic" in her own odd way.

I started to pull over so I could go talk with her and the GF got really bent out of shape over it, so I kept driving.

I know what you mean! I've done just that, in the past. Drove whoever I was with at the time, totally nuts. I'd get told things like... 'You're gonna get killed!' For all the times I've done that... so far, so good!

It could have been something like that. This woman had the happiest happy dance I have *ever* seen!

"Hi, I'm running late for work, but I'm Walt, and I live up in 3G. I'm always looking for a good tennis match. Feel free to knock next time you're playing."

How long does that take? You could make up the time by driving one MPH faster, or jogging through eh parking lot at work. Or just be 12 seconds later.


Or just yell something lame and drive off. Your choice.

Walt, moments like that don't come very often... late or not I'd have gone over introduced myself... you never know....

Well the reality was that I was not really interested in trying to score a date or anything like that, I was just really, really curious as to why she was doing the happiest happy dance I had ever seen.

I'm still curious and am kind of kicking myself for not going over there and asking. Passing that opportunity by was very unWaltlike. Oh well.
