After the Show

Another thing happened last night, immediately after the recording session.

And I'm still kicking myself. But things, or rather, somebody got in the way.

As I was waiting for the engineer to show back up again - he had run next door to find his next client - I stood gazing up and down the street. Almost immediately outside the front door of his studio, there is a bus stop.

A bus went by, number 270. That was fine.

The engineer had yet to return. I needed to catch a bus.

And a girl who I had noticed before walked up to me and asked me, in Czech, if bus 136 had passed.

"No." I said.

Just then, the engineer walked up with his next client. I met his next client and told them both goodbye. The girl, however, stood around.

136 showed up and we both hopped on. She went around this guy who was standing in the aisle. I had a big bag and the guy wouldn't let me around. The girl and I kept exchanging glances. But then that stopped.

And I got off the bus because it was going the absolute wrong direction. Ha.

But as I walked by the bus, our eyes met again and it was one of those moments like "Wait. Wait. Where are you going?"

But I kept going.

That has been in my mind, foreground or background since it happened. Heh.
