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.

Out scaring the tourists eh?

That's great Alan,
Possibly she was just stupified by your knowledge of the tartan she was wearing, when she just thought she was wearing a skirt!

Then she turns around, and you are wearing a Kilt, ..........and she can't find a comeback to it!

Funny

Perhaps you should wipe the drool off first?

Maybe a heavier sporran would have helped?:oops

I get it Alan, you are on a caffeine diet but you are still looking at the menu. Just because the menu you see is wearing a Hunting Stewart and you get to question her about it I see where she gives you the deer in the headlights look. She just is not use to the comment!

Great story, I love coffee shop tales.

... She gave me a deer-in-the-headlights look and said, "I don't know"...

She was likely telling the truth. Nor did she probably care. No doubt she wondered why you did. Typical.

I think it was the drool and the fact that your tongue was down by your knees that probably scared her off! ;)
