I was a little drunk, and by a little I mean a lot, and while I know I'm a good-natured drunk, I can't expect anyone else to assume that of a stranger. I can only imagine what she must have thought - well after midnight and I was stinking of beer... and nervous, of course! It was brief. I suspect she was eager to get me out of there, and I totally get why. It was almost seven years ago, and I haven't seen any other TS since, even though my fascination is at least as live now as it was then.
