A non-fake awkward story from my life about a run-in at a locker room.
For those of you who are interested, after the jump, you’ll find the .txt file of how it was originally written if you want to check that out.
Let me set the stage for you.
I’m in the locker room after a Monday session of
Bikram yoga– that’s the one where it’s 105
degrees in the room and you sweat so much it
looks like you just finished swimming laps.
I’ve just showered and toweled off and I’ve put
my shirt on.
This is starting to sound like a hairy version
of pornography, but stick around, it’s not going
in that direction.
I’m stepping into my pants– one leg at a time,
and i bend over to get a better hold on the pant
leg and….
Boop!
My bare ass bumps against some dude who is
changing nearby.
All i can muster is a choked and mumbled ’sorry.’
He doesn’t even say anything.
I breathed in–
to say, “can we just pause here for a second, and recognize how ridiculously awkward that was?”
But I couldn’t say it.
From there on out it’s heads down, no eye contact, AWKWARD CITY.
He left, I left. Done deal.
But I’m going to see that guy again, and every time I do, we’re both going to think that my ass touched his pants.

This made me LOL for much longer than I probably should have LOLed.

Does this story imply that you were not wearing underwear this particular day?? This little tid bit made the story even funnier for me..keep them coming….

Nick actually asked the same question. Let me clarify. After class, you’re drenched in sweat, so the underwear from that day is soaked. I typically don’t bring a second pair, because that would be a huge amount of underwear being used per week. After class, I just go Commando.
It’s a laundry issue, really.
