Facing the Music (1988)
“Some guys can just walk up to a woman and start talking to her, start saying anything. I can’t. I have to wait and work up my nerve, have a few beers. I have to sit at a table for a while, or the bar, and look them over and find the one who looks like she won’t turn a man down. This sometimes means picking one who is sitting by herself, who is maybe a little older than most, maybe even one who doesn’t look very good. Sometimes I wait until she dances with another man, then go over and make my m...ove after she sits back down. Sometimes, if I see one whose looks I like, I send a drink over to her table. But it isn’t easy meeting them.
I’m in a bar just outside the city limits Friday night when three women come in and take a table next to the dance floor, the last table not taken. I order another beer and look out over the crowd, the band playing, the couples who have found each other drifting over the floor like smoke. Some of the tables have three and four women, some have couples, some have men, and one table has a girl by herself.MoreLess
