a funny encounter at the coffee shop

[Alan H]

So yesterday I've got on the Black Watch Stillwater , doing my usual thing at work. I take a break and trot downstairs to hit the coffee kiosk. Lo and behold as I walk up this...

*faints* ....very *attractive* young lady in a somewhat non-traditional, non-ultra-mini, but *Very* nice kilt skirt in Hunting Stewart winds up one person ahead of me in line.

I was a Male Pig I, admit it. I stared. I olged. I hyperventilated. She had nice hair, too, and lots of it. Nice little boots. Arrrgh. I finally said "I like your skirt. That's the Hunting Stewart tartan isn't it?"

She gave me a deer-in-the-headlights look and said, "I don't know"...looked at my kilt once, and fled.

Oh, well.

For the record, I'm hitched (and happily so) but not dead, you know? Nothing wrong with saying hello to a pretty lass. This one didn't know how to process "kilt" though...chuckling..or maybe it was the raw, unquenchable sexuality I, Mister kilted-nearly-50-year-old-IT-geek exuded that did her in.
