Loose as a goose

—“This is turning into a really fun conversation,” my female contact said. She was laughing and smiling profusely!
“Of course it is,” I thought to myself. “I start talking with a female and we strike sparks.
“You are so much fun to talk to,” a lady once told me.
“We could talk forever!” another said.
“I hope we meet again,” another once told me.
(“Baloney!”)
I was at my supermarket self check-out. A lady was talking to the male self check-out aide, and she was wearing a Finger Lakes Dentistry uniform.
Our eyes met, and “Tell me everything,” I said to her. “I’m looking for a dentist here in town. I gotta drive a half-hour just to go to the dentist. That’s a pain in the neck!”
I did it again readers. The mere fact I said something to her told her she attracted me. (“Toss me that remote Luke!”)
“We’re right on Main Street,” she said. “Do you know where the old Pizza Hut was?”
“Are you kidding?” I shouted. “My wife and I never ate out. We made our pizza ourselves!”
“Yada-Yada-Yada-Yada-Yada!”
I’d finished self check-out, but we were talking — and laughing.
A pretty lady once told me what women love most is laughing.
“You guys got a website?” I asked.
“I’ll give you my card,” the lady said. Her name was *******.
“You call this number, and those ladies will tell you if your insurance qualifies.
And they better be friendly, because I’m the Human-Resources manager.”
“Can I talk dirty to ‘em?” I asked.
We laughed.
“Don’t worry,” I said. “I drove city bus in Rochester so I know all the lingo.
Regional Transit,” I said; “where every paragraph, every sentence, every phrase, and every word was modified with the F-bomb.”
She laughed; she wasn’t offended.
I had a guy take umbrage at mere mention of “F-bomb.” I didn’t actually use the word.
“I am so glad I said something to you,” I said to her. “I usually don’t.
And I made ya laugh — nyuk-nyuk-nyuk-nyuk-nyuk!”
She then helped this old geezer pack his groceries.

• For 16&1/2 years (1977-1993) I drove transit bus for Regional Transit Service (RTS) in Rochester, NY, a public employer, the transit-bus operator in Rochester and environs.
