Double Take
Yesterday afternoon after lunch, while Leigh went to the 7-11 to buy her daily fix of Coke Light, I went to the photo shop to pick up the pictures I had them developed this morning. On my way up I bumped into a former classmate of my older brother. After the obligatory handshake and hellos I told him I worked on the 20th floor of the building.
“Yes, I know,” he said. “I follow your online journal.”
I did an internal double take. “Okay, right. See you!”
“Bye!” he waved as he went his way.
The moment I turned away from him I muttered under my breath, “Oh. My. God.”
You see I’ve been out to everyone except my immediate family. My policy regarding my family and relatives is simple: if they don’t ask, I won’t volunteer; but if they ask, I won’t lie. So far no one’s been asking.
So JA, if you’re reading this, well, you know what to do, okay?
