Mirabile dictu, a pretty girl approached me at the club and I wasn't mean to her. Not sure what got into me there but I'm trying to turn things around. It didn't hurt that she checked me out and smiled at me before coming over.

I considered trying to find her after I got off work, but then I took a deep breath and said, "It's probably best for me to get out of this place."

I always used to say, "If you want to find the action, get out of the bar." Meaning, the bar is a socially constrained space, and there is a lot more room for creative encounters out on the street.

I had that feeling again last night for the first time since the summer. When I stepped outside the Marquee it was nice and mild out. There was a light drizzle but my vision was sharp and clear.

Ten minutes later I was smooching with a lady on a North End street corner.

"Very nice."

"Ohh yes."

Sometimes a kiss is all it takes...
