FR: #-closed a stripper in the mall

This story is more funny than anything else.

I was doing daygame in the mall with whim, coldplayer and EG. Lots of shoppers around, very chaotic and I didn't see that many HBs. I did a few sets but it was all in-then-out and not much traction. Suddenly out of nowhere this tall brunette with gorgeous set of grey eyes (8.5) appeared. I had no time to think; it was almost reflex. I stopped her and did my usual direct opener. She hooked. It turns out she's from Sacramento and looking to move to SF. So I talk talk talk... things are going well. I decide to try to instadate.

Me: You know, I donno what you have going on in the next 5 minutes, but I'm enjoying this conversation... you wanna go grab a coffee and sit down?
Her: Well... I'm in a hurry, I have to go get a hair cut and then get to work, but can I give you my number instead?
Me: You work on saturday?
Her: Yeah... I work on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday...
Me: Huh... you seem pretty career-oriented.
Her: Well... no... I'm a dancer.
Me: Oh... what company do you dance for? [In my defense, I've met a lot of dancers who dance for Alonzo King's dance company...]
Her: No not like that... I'm a stripper.

OMG I am so clueless. Anyways, I want to play it cool, but how do you play it cool after that? I didn't know, so I went with the flow

Me: Oh... okay... you know I've only been to a strip club once in my life. It was for a friend's bachelor party at Garden of Eden. (i made a face). I thought it was kinda shady...
Her: oh no... my place is not like that at all... I work on XXX street, it's very respectable, lots of business men go there and it's topless only.
Me: Oh okay...
Her: So can I give you my number?

Anyways we exchanged numbers and went our separate ways. The overall interaction is really short, and I didn't get a chance to tell her more of who I am and given my past history, this has a high chance of being a flake, so we'll see.

That was a new one for me. The plus is that I remained relaxed and calm, even tho she is really hot and I wasn't derailed by the whole stripper part of the conversation. The minus is that I didn't push harder for an instadate. So, I had to take it for what it is.

But you gotta admit, even if it's not good PU, it is at least hilarious.
