Over middle-aged, over weight, over smiley man in pilot uniform, aviator shades and leather bomber jacket.
As we pass each other, man quickly leans in and breaths
"What's happening sugar"?
I'm bemused. Obviously. I look around me. Nobody else in ear shot. I look back at him. He's walking backwards and with a finger pointed right at me he says
"Yes you little darlin'"
Yes he said that and he winked. I couldn't see his eyes behind the shades but there was the squishing of the left cheek and the furrow of the brow. Definitely a wink.
I keep walking. Away.
Currently Reading: Lolita by Nabakov. I'm still reading this. Still struggling with subject matter but won't give up and shall continue to struggle because it's so beautifully written. Damn that Nabakov.
Currently Listening to: Andrew Bird - Armchair Apocrypha
