Auditorium

I was in a large auditorium: basically I was in the Center's theatre, but the aisles were a little wider. (All of this action takes place in Rows N and O). There were a lot of old high school people there watching some film. All I remember about the film is that Tom Jones sang the opening theme, "War (What is It Good For?)" I spotted Zach and knew I wanted to sit as near to him as possible. There wasn't anywhere free, so I continued down the row. I found Wyant and plopped down next to him. "Is this seat taken?" I asked. "Well . . ." he stammered, knowing that he wanted me to sit there, but that he also had someone else who planned to sit there. So I just got up. He was somewhat perplexed. This time I walked behind Zach instead of the row directly in front of him. I thought about going into the projection booth, but there were a bunch of people standing around. I had to duck quickly to avoid getting in the way of the projected image, and I'm not sure that I was entirely successful. Zach now had a fancy-schmancy telephoto lens that he was playing with instead of watching the movie. I found an empty seat about ten seats away and spent the whole time trying to make eye contact. He never truly noticed me, but I did notice how much he reminded me (favorably) of someone else.
