Let Us Give Thanks
Saturday, November 22nd, 2008This time of year is my favorite- most definitely. About this time last year, I met Redd. Cute, preppy Redd. I’m sure I’ve mentioned him before in my blog. Quite a character, he is.
The night before Thanksgiving last year, several of my work friends and I went out; Redd came to meet up with us. After the bar closed, Marga, Redd, and I came back to my condo to hang out. Our office Christmas party was coming up soon and I had just gotten this hott little number to wear. I just had to get the perfect little black dress because everyone at the office called my date “The Hottest Man Alive”-which barely even did him justice. I digress.
Marga, Redd and I were all in my bedroom and I was showing them my new threads. We talked and talked and all ended up falling asleep in my cozy bed. Marga woke me up about 5 in the a.m. or so to tell me that she was leaving. Redd roused from his sleep as well. And walked to my bathroom. In his underwear.
It was really awkward. And funny. Marga and I are not the type of people to hold laughter in. He got laughed at- until we fell asleep again. But really, who just takes off their pants and hangs out (literally) in their underwear when you’re in the company of others whom you aren’t going to get to know in the Biblical sense?
So at this time, I would like to give thanks- thanks to those guys out there that have brought awkward moments upon themselves or witnessed my awkward moments because it’s times like those that are just priceless.
