kind of cute but scary

back to whole foods for dinner. the best hangout in santa fe. haven't found another place with so many people my age. get another hefty salad bar mix of tofu and organic shit. eat and people watch again. catch a girl in a checkout line looking my way. probably 22 yrs old. punkish. black clothes. shaved head except for some bangs and strands of hair curled on her cheeks. kind of cute, but scary at the same time. would be super cute if she had more hair and less make-up. but right now - just "kind of cute but scary." she's the 4th person in a slow moving line. guess there are obnoxious fat old ladies holding up lines here after all (refer to future employee at whole foods). she smiles at me and rolls her eyes at the lack of progress she's making. i shove another forkful of tofu and greens in my mouth rather than smile back. then direct my attention to other passers-by thinking nothing of it.

a few minutes pass. still scarfing down my food. the "kind of cute but scary" girl walks by. right close to me. i look up noticing she's slowed her paced. gives me a huge flirty smile in passing. hmm... she's pretty cute after all. i smile back. oh i how i love thee whole foods... (to be continued)
