"Are
You Married?" |

"Are
you married?, do you have any kids?, do you like to dance?"
is how the line of questioning usually begins. Eyes light
up at the favorable responses. "Do you want a companion
to travel with you?, can I go to Arizona with you?, I want
to have your green-eyed babies!", is the eventual progression.

One such encounter started during a needed haircut, led
to a friendly manicure and pedicure, then continued with
an invitation to cerveza and salsa! (Dancing, that is.)
A
female Nicaraguan friend now living in San Francisco
warned me that the local Latinas would do anything
to get their hooks into me and that I had better watch
out!
Poor innocent me?? Oh no, far from it. Cross-Cultural-Flirting-R-Me!
A sly shy smile and just enough Spanish to be dangerous.
I love the attention. And I've felt the hooks sinking
in... and I liked it! |

But wait! I'm on a mission! Tierra del Fuego or Bust!
A postal or even an E-mail address will have to do
for now... and perhaps if the hooks are in deep enough,
I'll still feel them when I reach lands' end.
