Taco Time


I recently changed jobs, so my perimeter of interest has shifted to another part of town, which means when I venture out for a bite to eat, like I did today, I may or may not know where I'm going. I didn't get lost, exactly, but I did go for a nice little drive out in the sunshine, which was not at all unpleasant.

I ended up at Taco Time, which is one of my favorite quick places to eat, and placed my order at the talking speaker around the corner from the drive-up window. I didn't think anything of the voice asking me questions. It sounded like a young tenor voice. I assumed it was a younger guy.

But when I reached the window the gaydar went off in my ears like a siren. This was either a very effeminate young man or a thin and angular female with short hair, and upon first glance it was hard to tell. All I knew for sure was that it was engaging and attractive, and so I chose the latter. Having made that choice, I could now study her more intently, and I was pleased to see that she may have also been studying me, which is never a bad realization when you like what you're seeing. Although this was a not a look I had ever felt attracted to before, which only goes to show that it isn't "types" that attract us exactly, but souls.

As she handed me my bag, I almost hoped that she had deposited her number inside, but it would have probably been signed with a name like "Alex," or something, and I'd never be able to tell if it was male or female. :-\  Dang, I should have snapped a pic (because that would have been so subtle), then I could have asked for opinions.

  3. that would be subtle ♥ good luck with that.

    I had a sort of similar experience at the temple a while ago. LOVED this woman's voice - and it made me wonder. Not that voices can give that sort of information. But it totally made me wonder.
    And then there was this other gal (also at the temple. did I tell you about this?) she was so cute I almost blushed. I tell you - I wish I had a picture of that one... maybe next time, eh? It was her haircut. Cute as all get-out.

  5. I might argue with your evidence of 'souls' there :) But I certainly agree that there are many aspects of attraction.
    Love you Alex~ :)
