There's a woman I've seen around town every so often over the course of a few months. She's quite pretty, and I've been nervous about the prospect of actually trying to meet her. About a month ago, I worked up the nerve to actually start up a conversation with her. It seemed to go well, with her laughing at my lame jokes, her tossing her head back, her squeezing my hand. I was too nervous to talk to her again since (seen her a few times around and about). Until a couple of days ago that is. The conversation is below.
But first my question: When a girl asks me where I live, and then gives me her apartment number unsolicited, is this a sign of sexual interest? I mean, does she actually want me to go over there and proposition her? Or is she simply being a friendly neighbor. We've talked twice now, for a total of say, ten minutes total.

Two Days Ago:
I see the cute, petite blonde on the bus again. The second I step off the bus, I look up, and there she is, standing directly in front of me. She is standing so close (within a foot of me), and already staring at me wide eyed, that I recoil for a second, startled. She is also standing immediately in my path, so I basically have no choice but to start up a conversation with her. We walk together for a few minutes away from the bus:
me: 'hey there xxx, how you doing?' I smile and shake her hand.
her: blah blah blah.
me: 'what you been up to?'
her: 'well, last night I was up until 2 in the morning at a rock club...'
me: 'cool...' blah blah blah.
her: '....so where do you live?'
me: 'I live in housing complex xyz.'
her: she is quiet for a moment. My intuition tells me she wants to ask me my exact address.
her: 'I live in housing complex xyz too. We're neighbors....I live in apartment number xxx.'
Well, she has to keep walking and I have to make a turn.
her: 'well, enjoy the weather...' she says, continuing to walk, looking over her shoulder.
...Is this a "fyck invitation" or is she simply being a polite, hospitable neighbor?

Here is our initial conversation (about 8 min. long), which took place about a month ago:
4:30 PM on the bus. I sit down a couple of seats from this very, very cute petite blonde I've seen two or three times before. The bus is pretty empty, but there's another pretty brunette seated a few seats away also. The seat I'm in is facing sideways, rather than forward and the blonde girl's seat is also facing sideways, two seats from mine. I dawdle on my phone for a minute before working up the courage to talk to her.
me: 'that's an interesting bag.'
her: 'oooh,' she says with a slight smile, looking down at her bag, and caressing it a bit.
me: 'let me guess...did you buy it at nordstrom's?'
her: 'uuuum, no.' She's still smiling.
me: 'damm.' snapping my fingers in mock disappointment.
her: 'I got it at urban outfitters...'
me: 'it looks like a grocery bag,' I say.
her: laughs, tilting her head back. 'Yeah, you could mistake it for a grocery bag. (Pause). It's good for carrying books.'
me: slight pause....'I hope I didn't offend you.'
her: 'ooooh no, not at all,' she says shaking her head, eyes wide open indicating she is not.
me: I ask what she's studying, since she's got a bookbag.
her: she tells me, then asks if I am a student.
me: I tell her I am working now.
her: 'I figured that,' she says nodding.
me: slight pause, wondering if I should continue. What the hell, I need to carry the first half of our first conversation. I ask about her school work, where she's from. We talk about visiting Disneyland. I try to spice up the conversation saying that Las Vegas is an 'adult' Disneyland, and ask her if she's ever been there. She says she hasn't. She's not offended though, so I'm still doing ok.
Lo and behold! She actually resumes the conversation herself! With a 'so....' something or other. I think she does it once or twice. She's laughing out loud now at just about everything I say. I force myself to make eye contact with her and resume the conversation after brief pauses.
As we both are about to get off the bus, I have to initiate some kino.
me: 'what's your name?'
her: she tells me.
me: I extend my hand for a handshake. We shake hands and she has a
vice like grip. No wet noodle grip action here. 'Wow, you have strong
hands.'
her: she laughs.
me: I say goodbye and wish her luck with her studies.
...And the very cute brunette I had seen earlier on the bus? She
stares at me as she gets off the bus.
7 PM: I see the blonde girl again a couple of hours later getting on the bus after I've already gotten on. I figure she'll just walk past me without acknowledging me. Wrong. She makes eye contact. Big smile. And her eyes are smiling, half closed. I think for a second of inviting her to sit next to me.
But I choke and let her keep walking.
I believe I count two or three IOI's. Such as constant laughing at my fairly lame jokes, re-initiating the conversation at a dead spot or two, and a hand squeeze at the end.
