I am in Alamogordo this week and of course I brought Christine along. I got a little tired of doing the "all dressed up and nowhere to go" thing. Earlier I went to Wal-Mart and bought a new ribbed top and a couple of other items. Once I got back to the room I tried on the top and it fit like a dream. I couldn't wait to see the entire outfit. I got dressed and ventured out. The hotel put me on the third floor and I had to walk down the stairs to get to my car. Once I got there, I climbed in and drove out to see the sights.
I drove for miles and stopped every once and a while to check myself out. I know, I know, a little narcisistic on my part. After an hour of driving and enjoying the night air, I started to get a little hungry, but I did not want to go back in drab to get something to eat. I got the wild idea of going to McDonalds for a burger (drive though of course). I stopped at the order mike and in my best female voice I ordered a burger and fries. I've been practiceing my voice whenever I get the chance, but when I ordered I was so nervous that it sounded awful. I pulled up to the window and paid the girl. She did not say a word about anything. She gave me my change and I drove to the second window. Another girl gave me my food and again nothing was said.
I wolfed down the burger and checked my makeup. A little retouch on the lipstick and off I went. I pulled up to the hotel side door and saw this guy getting on the elevator. I took the stairs to the 3rd floor and walked out to the hallway. My room was about halfway down the hall. As I was walking to my room, the same guy got out of the elevator and turned toward me. He was halfway down the hall and I was at the end of the hall. We started to walk toward each other. My heart was pounding in my chest. I'm surpried nobody heard it. We crossed paths and he went to his room and I to mine. I couldn't get into the room fast enough. Once in I realized that I wasn't breathing. I gulped air and felt faint. Then I realized that he did not say anything, not a single comment. Not a sneer or a giggle. Just a man and a "gurl" crossing paths in the hallway. All I can say about it is... very freaking cool!!!
