The Balcony

2003-03-13: The Balcony - Toilets

You may remember from an earlier toilet adventure that a bulldog pint glass came into my possession. I acquired this treasure at the Balcony. I ordered a pint of Blue Moon beer and it came in a Bulldog Glass. The bartender told me, "Hey, and you can keep the glass because it's not ours."

So I did.

The Balcony is Uptown, across the street from the Bulldog. It is quite the archetypal uptown spot. While I prefer downtown for various aesthetic and comfortability reasons, I have to admit that some beautiful women hang out at the Balcony et al.

Typing that just made me remember something. At the Quintron show the other night I saw a beautiful girl who I knew I had seen before. I wracked my brain trying to figure out how I knew her. She kept looking at me. As talkative and social as I am, I almost never walk up to strangers and start a conversation. 99% of the time I wait for them to initiate conversation. I guess I'm shy (initially). Since I couldn't remember how I knew this girl, she remained a stranger and I did not talk to her.

I now remember her. She is the girl who was sitting next to me at the Balcony when I purloined the bulldog glass. Indeed, she initiated conversation with me and we had a grand old time, thus making her no longer a stranger. I wish I would have remembered this at the Quintron show.

Lesson learned: Don't be so adverse to going uptown.
