awkward situations
Tonight I went to dinner with some friends at Big Sky cafe, which serves food made with only local organic produce, welcoming foodies and smug hipsters and "all natural" hippies and lesbians with unshaven pits and vegan diets.
I walked into the bathroom, and saw a pair of women, mid 30s, pull quickly out of an embrace by the door. As soon as I saw them, one of the women, abashed and bewildered, stumbled into the front of one of two stalls and out of my way. She leaned against the metal door, with an embarrassed look on her face, trying her best to look nonchalant. She stood in the doorway, arms stiff, just looking at me.
"Are you going to use that stall?" I asked.
"Oh, no," she said.
Panicked she leapt back into the center of the bathroom. I walked to the toilet, and then both women slipped into the stall next to me, reserved for the handicapped, and closed the door behind them.
I exited the bathroom as quickly as I could.
Aaawwwkwwwarrd.
