The Perils of Getting a Life: Misfire

_

Jack decided to go out to watch hockey, instead of staying home. And if he hoped there might be a hockey-friendly woman there, well, that was getting a life, right?

The place he used to go was different now, all fancy chrome and glass. He hesitated briefly. But it had a bar and a t.v., so he ordered beer.

A young guy sat down beside him. "Hi. I'm Jeff." Jeff was smiling. A lot. And leaning close. "You looking for anything special tonight?"

"What--?" Words evaporated as he got it. His cheeks burned. "Uh, no, sorry. Gotta go."

Oops. Misfire.
