a really great kiss *

have you ever noticed how recently-separated/broken up-newly-single women in the movies or on tv (most recently starter wife) always end up eventually professing to their girlfriends that they just need/want a really good kiss? and of course, they get to make out with some hot young thing?

well, i'd always thought it was lame and never thought i'd ever think that i needed/wanted a great kiss. but i go out last thursday to celebrate two things: my body scan and betty's birthday. there was a show that night that was completely sold out. i thought it would be like when the cardigans came to play there, but it wasn't. it was semi crazy. maybe it was because we showed up late and after amy winehouse played. so, we get there sometime after midnight. i had to pick up my cousin nina in the embarcadero which turned out to be quite an adventure. we get there and there is no line. and the cover starts up again at 12:15a. it's not yet 12:15. the band is still playing. and we certainly don't want to pay for the band. so we ask the guys up front, how much is cover right now? there's some signaling going on and tony (who is next to the stamp girl) takes her hand (stamp in hand) and stamps each of us. we're in, free. nice.

klaxons & amy winehousewe head straight back to say hello to jason (back bar) and check in our coats. as we are greeting jessica, who else do we see? but my current favorite popscene guy... chris. and he's looking really hot. i'm totally thrown off because of the last couple of times we both were there. it was not hot at all. and there was no making out resulting in any of the two previous visits. so we chatted a little bit. and headed over to get drinks and talk to cousin jason (who earlier made out with amy winehouse!!). chris stays with his cousin and we hit the main bar to get more drinks. which is where will suddenly shows up. after drinks, i decided i had a mission, i'm making out with chris tonight. i say, i'll be baaack.

i head back over. i find chris and we are just chatting. somehow, i get him to smell my hair (it smelled like candy) and then, somehow, i get him to play with my hair. next thing i know, he's got his arm around me and is leading me to the back bar. we're sort of close. and suddenly, we're making out. it's very nice. my knees are wobbly as we're kissing. i don't know how long we'd been at it. and i'm getting really really warm. so i have to stop. i look up and see will from the dance floor. then go back to kissing him some more.

i realize later, that this was one of those really great kisses they talk about. i didn't think i wanted one but after making out with young hot chris, i'm not so sure how i feel about those stupid scenes anymore. perhaps they are not so stupid?
