Mystery Girl

So, I'm thinking about this mystery girl... The one from last night out in West Chester at the drag queen hosted karaoke.  The one in the scrubs.

And I'm thinking to myself how... She was the ONLY one there dressed like that.  I mean literally EVERY other girl there, all dolled up.  Even the guys, dressed up as the opposite sex... all dolled up.

Then there's this one girl.  The one that I have a brief chat with in the bathroom line.  The one who kind of made me want to get to know her more.

She's dressed in scrubs, and looks like she just worked all day.  Probably did work all day.

And who am I attracted to?  All the girls all dolled up?  Nope.  The dudes in drag?  Not even the slightest... For obvious reasons.  But this girl, not even giving a crap what she looks like.  Just wearing what she had on from work.

That's the one that does it for me.

It just goes to show that all this time we spend trying to impress the opposite sex... Or I guess in the case of those drag queens, since they are gay guys, the same sex.

But we spend all this time, I put gel in my hair, and put smelly scent stuff on and put on my nicest pair of pants and shirt... Hoping to dress to impress.  And all those ladies out all with their hair and makeup and outfits picked out.

None of that matters with true attraction though.  You can just have your hair looking like a hot mess... You can be wearing your work clothes... You can just sit down at the bar, grab a beer and not even care.

And I'm going to be wishing that you were the one I could take home.  Isn't it strange?  Like we waste all this time with these preconceived notions of what will attract someone... When in her case... I was attracted to her as is.  No fancy pants and shirt and make up and hair...

Just her.  And in the freakin' bathroom line at that!  Just goes to show that love is crazy and weird and it can bite you at any point in time anywhere in any way shape and form.

I mean, okay it's not love, it's just... A girl that I was interested in getting to know.  Just because... I don't know, I just liked something about her, you know, like her laugh, or her smile... Or just how she made a joke back to my joke.  Or just how relaxed and nonchalant she was.  Who knows.

The point is... Love just happens however it pleases.

So, it's funny that we all do all this extra legwork to help love along... When it doesn't need any help.  It does what it wants, when it wants, how it wants.  If it wants two people to fall in love, they could be in sweats at the gym working out together, smelling and sweating it up and gross and skunky.

And love will be like... You two gross and skunky smelling people... TOGETHER NOW!

And then you'll just start chatting with one another looking a hot mess and smelling even worse...

And then love will happen.

It's a weird thing.  Love.

I do wonder about that girl.  I wish I had gotten her number or something.  I guess I could always try and go back next week, same time, same place... See if she's there.  I feel like she wouldn't be.  I feel like it was just a one time thing and that was that.

But, at the end of the day, there are plenty of other karaoke bars in town, and maybe there's another girl that will capture my attention.  Or who knows.  I mean... love it strange like that.  It happens when it wants, how it wants, the way it wants... Where it wants.  And it doesn't care what the circumstances are.  Love rules all.
