Jessica and the Mating Ritual

I've been waiting to post this all day!
I saw Matt getting hit on by a girl with lots of red hair.
He performs every Tuesday night in a newly smoke-free bar downtown. I have heard my share of "Free Bird" requests but this was the first time I'd seen a female approach him with anything but a beer.
Not that he doesn't deserve it--you should hear him sing Long Black Veil--it's just an odd thing to be front row when your boyfriend becomes prey.
Jessica stalked the microphone mid-song to offer some descants which were out of tune and the wrong words but totally raspy.
I may have laughed a little while she was singing or fixing her plumage (THREE TIMES), but I don't think that's why she packed up her bag and left alone.
Nope, I'm definitely not attributing it to myself. Or the rest of the table.

Hey, just because I could hardly conceal my snorting giggles at her (I was wiping my eyes because of my ALLERGIES, people)doesn't mean it's my fault that she left. In a huff. Hilariously.
