Part 1
I remember it was a Friday in the early evening and I was sitting in the lounge bar of a Melbourne hotel. The place wasn’t packed but there seemed enough people in there to make it interesting. The air was a masala of people, boddies, and perfume ( I love that smell ). Aidan and I were sitting at a low table, talking about something, I can’t remember what, and he was just looking at his beer and kind of daydreaming. He was turning it slowly like one of those little ballerinas in music box. I remember thinking how his beer glass was radially symmetrical and how he was turning it on its axis of symmetry, and t****ade me think of earthworms and how their bodies are also radially symmetrical.
Anyway I should really get on with the story, (which incidentall****s****o with beer, Aidan, or earthworms). Umm, so at some point, I noticed two women at the other end of the lounge sitting at a low table like ours. I was lost in thought and I suppose, well I guess I was, staring at them. but my mind totally wasn’t concerned with them. I wa****aught up in the idea that they kind of mirrored Aidan and I, and that we made kind of symmetry too, but it wasn’t radial symmetry it was lateral symmetry (duh, obviously).Then, bang! I snapped out of it in shock and I felt that, dentist waiting room feeling wash over me.The universe seemed to be kicked off Kilter ‘cos those two women were looking right at me and checking me out...
