I really hate that when you look back 5/10/15 years and realize "Shit, she was totally hitting on me!"

I was.....or maybe am so fucking oblivious.
I'd go back and find Linda Christie when we used to work in Almy's. She hit on me at the Christmas party and I was so fucking clueless and and oblivious. Stupid fucking 17 year old, and not much smarter 50 years later apparently.

Lol. I remember a cute chick from my high school coming into the gas station I worked at and I noticed her tire was low. I told her to pull over to the air pump and I'd fill it.

She said something like "Oh thanks,...... If I had a boyfriend he'd probably take care of that".

I don't remember exactly what I said but effectively it was "Yup, have a good night*.

The "D'oh !" heard around the world. I've launched (more than) a few of those.

Wonder what she’s doing now? :dunno:

Maybe not the same now?

Last year I was contacted by a high school girlfriend who I last banged … er, I mean, saw in 1984.
Wanted pics of me, so I sent a few recent ones and asked for her reciprocation.

Rude awakening.
The years (and calories) were not kind.

Oh yea. First girl I ever said those three little words to... she was HOTT when she was 18. (I was 20.) I had to break it off, because I moved 2 1/2 hours away and started a business. She tried to say let's keep it going, long distance. No way when you're working 80+ hour weeks getting a new business off the ground. Saw her a couple decades later. Oof! 250+ lbs. Escaped that one.

An observation related to the thread:

Same chick above included a pic of her younger sister (who I definitely shoulda banged) and her face was unmistakable.

Even with age, some people’s faces are immediately, unmistakably recognizable.

When I went to my 30th high school reunion, I couldn’t believe how many instances of this I saw.
Mostly chicks, but even a few dudes.

Go back to 1960 Little League, and not catch a line drive to the face playing shortstop: by losing sight of the ball then dropping my glove a couple of inches to get the view of it: sailing over my mitt coming right at my nose!

Go back and buy property in Orlando,Miami, and tons of Apple and Microsoft stock, and stop at Mannys on my way out and buy three or four 52 Goldtops . But I won’t get greedy, not much ,I will direct my ex-wife to move to another state before we met in the future

Go back to 1981, and pull the trigger on that 1960 Les Paul for 1400$ at Ring music...or 1978, and pull the trigger on those 3 late 50's Maple Neck Sunburst Stratocasters for 300$ a piece in a local music store( someone dumping their collection)...or 1976, in a shop in Hamilton with a mid 50's Telecaster in my hands, for 300$, most beautiful worn finish imaginable. Out of the corner of my eye i thought...naw, it's not hard rock enough :rolleyes: ...i bought the Yamaha solid state 50 watt amp instead...:iough:

I wouldn’t change much, the life I’ve had has made me a little fucked up but I survived some shit that made me a bit tough. I’ve won at love and lost at love, I’ve won at money but mostly lost at money, I’ve had poor health and good health, and I have bad memories and some really great memories.

I wish I’d taken guitar more seriously, I think I could have been really good

Easy. Go catch Kiss in their prime on the Love Gun tour. I had to wait to 1996 and the reunion tour before I could see them live. Spent far too many hours staring at the Alive II gatefold.

I would go back to 1959, and stay.

Then live out the 14-15 years I figure I have left, and try to enjoy the birth of rock and roll again, and maybe try to hit Woodstock.

Of course I’d buy a brand new Burst, and some cool amps, and then just enjoy the simple life.

Probably have to get a new ‘60 corvette as well.
