Summer in Seaside at Riley's 7/31/2007 1:12:32 PM
Quiet day except for the startling news that there is a search under way for a young woman, whom was last seen at another local restaurant, and has not been seen since last Thursday mornning. There are posters up all over town, including Riley's. As yet no one knows where she is.
There was a couple that came in shortly after I arrived and they sat in the booth right in front of me. At first they were friendly, jovial and seemed quite relaxed then the man said something derogatory about the woman in front of the waitress, worse yet, within ear shot of everyone on that side of the restaurant. To me it seemed horribly rude.
After a few minutes it was cold as ice at that booth. The man was absorbed in the paper he was reading and more intriguing, the woman looked directly at the man with her hands held to the side of each eye and with deep anger she was piercing arrows with her intense stare. It appeared as if she was saying "put that damn newspaper down and talk to me...you ass."
I left before they did but the coolness was felt as I walked past their booth. I'd hate to be in their car for that 80 mile drive back to Portland.
Ciao for now
