Shannon's DMSI V2.2 Journal

[Shannon]

Tonight is trivia night, and at trivia, I observed the following discrepancies from the norm:

1. There is a woman, S, who is in her 50's who is actually very physically attractive in spite of her age. She has been growing more and more interested over the last several months. Tonight, she initiated a hug for the first time ever.
   
2. One of the females who sits to my right 2-3 booths from where I sit, who is usually giving me crotch displays, tonight could not sit there because the booths were full. She sat at the bar where I could not see her. I thought that was the end of it, but when the booths were empty, she and her team moved to sit there. Not so terribly unusual, but for the first time in about a month, she was consciously trying not to give me crotch displays, and every time she caught herself coming even close, she would stop herself.
   
3. The booth in front of them was seating a team consisting of a VBG (very big girl) and a petite woman. Kind of an amusing dichotomy, but VBG was giving me repeated very blatant crotch displays, where she would sit in the booth with her back to the wall to face me (she was almost directly behind me) and one leg straight out on the bench with the other bent resting on the floor, and as far apart as she could get them. This happened three or four separate times. I noted that her companion at one point was sitting with both feet on the bench, legs crossed at the ankles, and facing me. That only happened once. Kept catching VBG staring, but she would never smile, even when I smiled at her. It was almost as if she was too intent to smile.
   
4. A, who had been giving me strong IOIs for the previous three weeks, sat away from me, and gave me zero IOIs tonight. It was like I didn't exist, except when I locked eyes with her in passing and smiled. Then she smiled back.
   
5. My server, another S, was flushed deep red all of the first 20 minutes, and then that went away. She and I ended up in a really personal conversation when she asked why my gf never comes to trivia. I explained that it's my lunch break, and she's not with me while I am at work. Then I playfully asked why her girlfriend was never there, and she laughed and said she had none. So boyfriend, then? Then the real conversation started, and I managed to get her interested in meeting me after work next week. She's giving body language and action signals that she likes me and is interested, but is trying to keep her distance. She's a lot of fun to talk to, so I'm going to win on this one no matter what happens.
   
6. The manager, E, saw me and made a point of smiling sweetly and saying hello. Before last week, this never happened. Last week I told her that she had gorgeous long hair, which she does. Tonight I flirted with her by teasing her that she was teasing me by having it up. She really enjoyed the attention, but was off doing manager-y things after that.
   

Not really a whole lot of much interest, except that basically I have what might turn into a date with my server. I gave her my number, and let's see what she does with it. I would have gotten hers, but her body language tells me she has been burned a lot and is very VERY skittish. I'll let her come to me and use curiosity as the hook.

Odd that I got some negative reactions tonight.
