The First Time
(I'm feeling content)
The Friday night rush was over. I looked out into the dining room and there were two girls giggling as they moved from table to table, stealing the paper placemats off the table. (Yeah, that's about as classy as Pizza Hut gets.) My duty to stop the madness led me to them. The fact that they were cute didn't hurt. We talked and they giggled for a while before they giggled their way out the door. Our second encounter was the next week, when they showed up to apply for jobs. I didn't think much of it,as they were just giggly high school girls. Their giggling appearances persisted every weekend. Of course they never bought anything.
Several weeks later, needing a waitress, I came to their applications chose the less giggly of the two. It turns out that she had gotten a job at TG&Y. Oh well, I'll call the other one.(she was cuter anyway.) I gave her the smallest uniform that she could fit into, and boy did she fit into it!(I always like to enjoy my work.) It was easy to become friends, since she hung on my every word. (Never underestimate the male ego) It wasn't long before we were dating. Yes, back then you could date an employee and not worry about a sexual harrassment suit when they got pissed off. Yes, her mother thought I was 19, not 20. (I didn't know that until years later, nor did I know that all of the above was part of her evil plan. I thought I was in control. Never underestimate the male ego.)
We are still best friends today, though she quite wisely does not hang on my every word. Yesterday was our 27th anniversary. We had some rough times, but made it through. I take no credit for that. I'm just lucky as hell I picked the right one.Yeah I know i was the one that got picked. (never underestimate the male ego)
