Confession # 38
I was sexually harassed last night, I think…
It was Girls' Night Out so we decided to take in a movie. We were in line at the theatre and I was digging in the bottom of my purse to find my ever-elusive credit card, all the while juggling my umbrella and bright pink raincoat. I finally found my card as I got up to the ticket window, handed it to the young man behind the glass and he casually said to me, …I think… 'Nice Bush.'
I froze because I could not believe that this prepubescent boy would say something so foul to me, but my girlfriend heard it too; we both just stood there in shock. I signed my receipt, gave the little pervert a puzzled look and pulled my bright pink raincoat out from between my legs. It was at that moment she and I got it and started busting up, but we still could not believe he said that to me.
We didn't know what to do and we were laughing too hard and I was too embarrassed to really explain the situation to the others with us. My friend who heard it thought we should report him, but we both were not sure if it was really what he said, or if he even knew he said it out loud. We went back and forth between quiet moments of shock and hysterical moments of laughter and decided to let it go. We bought our popcorn, without comments, and saw our movie.
The real funny part of the story though - IT WASN'T EVEN RAINING!
