I'm Not the Relief Pitcher, I'm the Closer...

A little break from the usual Chronicles formula I'm actually writing about something that happened recently. Last night to be exact.

I went to a friend's work happy hour event. This chick I knew from HS. She is a kewl, fly chick. So I figured that it would be a nice place to go chick hunting and at worse I'd chill with my friend and her coworkers.

I get there and its my friend and 20 guys. What a disappointment! hahaha. Not to mention the place was filled with suits. So I figured that the chickies would be tough to come by.

But you know me. I always make it happen.

On one of my trips to the bar I get into some banter with this chick. I didn't think anything of it, but I noticed that she was checkin me out from across the bar. She was there with a bunch of coworkers so I figured I'd try and strike up a conversation next time she broke away from the rest of the chicks.

Side note: This is why I need a wing man / wing chick. Life would have been so much easier if I had some back up.

I got a quick chance to talk to her on her way out and she was almost runnin out of the place. But wen i was talkin to her she seemed really receptive and engaged. She seemed like she wanted to talk but she was walkin away at the same time it was the weirdest thing

See my thing is if she was interested don't you think she would have stopped and had the conversation? Its kinda hard to talk to a chick as she is walking away from you.

After mentioning this story to a friend, she said all you had to do is say the right thing. You had to say that one thing to stop her in her tracks. I do have those kind of skills but after a couple of months of being out of the game I already forgot how to close. Very not cool.

I'm not the relief pitcher, i'm the closer... Well I use to be. hahhahah

Instead of walking off the mound and getting cheered by your people, you had to watch one leave the park.

Even Mo let's a few go.

Keep putting these up man. You should start working this blog into you game - telling them about the Chronicles - they'll want to hear a story then become part of it.

Met an old WWII vet on the way home on the D train today. Put me in the way back machine.
