From pages 155-56:
"These days, it still happens from time to time-I'll get bowled over by a dizzying love for a girl I've only glimpsed: the bartender with tattoos on her neck who fills in some nights at the 8-Ball Saloon, just down the street from my house; a Denny's waitress in Wheeling, West Virginia working a mop and bucket in back when her shift is through; a girl with pink hair on the Greyhound bus from Chicago to Detroit, wearing two hoodies and listening to headphones, writing in a journal, taking long sad looks out the window at the passing scenery."
Note: There is no Denny's in Wheeling, WV. The closest one is in St. Clairsville, OH.
