Your intrepid correspondents are fanned out across the neighborhood this weekend in search of Missed Connections. We’re making eyes, tossing goofy smiles, looking and then looking away. We’ll keep you posted.

I’d gotten my coffee and saw an empty seat in the crowded cafe, but to get there I had to squeeze my way and accidentally bumped into you…I almost spilled your coffee! But you were so cool about it, I think I even saw a glimmer in your eye. I said “Sorry,” and you said “No problem” with such a beaming smile. I couldn’t help but think I was the cause of it — by the way, I’m the one with the disheveled curly hair, glasses, I had a black sweater on and was way too shy to make eye contact with you for more than two seconds. I went to sit down, reached for my book oh so nonchalantly, opened it, and when I finally looked up you were gone.
