"Ethan, some guy hit on mom. It was sick. He kept staring at her, even when she wasn't looking."
"Shutup! You're lying!"
"No, I swear. It was so gross."
"Oh man, if I was there, I would have kicked him in the balls and told him to BACK OFF BUDDY, SHE'S MARRIED AND YOU'RE AN IDIOT."
One might think that I am telling you this story to prove to you yet again that I'VE STILL GOT IT. If my "it" you mean "A tendancy to attract The Freaks of The World" then yes! I've still got it!
So...I'm standing in line for a ride at Knotts with my teenage son. We're talking, minding our own business when this Extremely Short Dude, who looked like a mutated Kevin James, decided he should answer a question that I asked my son.
HELLO? WAS NOT SPEAKING TO YOU. MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.
I did that little fake laugh thing that I do when I really want to punch people in the neck, but can't for fear of criminal prosecution and turned my body as if to say "You are dead to me, oh thou whom I was not speaking to because I do not even know you."
My son leaned in and whispered "Mom, that guy is staring at you. He won't stop staring at you."
I turned around and caught a glimpse of this guy violating me with his eyes. I looked away, but I could still feel him staring at me. I tried so damn hard to pretend like I didn't notice. I talked to my son, I looked for things in my purse. I pretended to have a headache and put my hands over my eyes.
God. Now that I think about it, what I SHOULD have done was released the trapped gas that was killing me inside and farted on him.
I made the mistake of making eye contact with him.
"What's your name? You from around here?"
"Um, yeah. My names Y."
(I know. Why did I tell him my name? WHY?)
He put his hand out in the "please shake me" position and said "My name is (ARE YOU READY FOR THIS? I DO NOT THINK THAT YOU ARE.) Sterling."
I tried not to laugh, I really did, but I started laughing. "Sterling?"
"Yes, Sterling."
"Alrighty then."
What happened next will make you puke.
I'm standing there and STERLING was staring at me, at my boobs, at my ass. I WAS BEING VISUALLY MOLESTED by a guy named STERLING who smelled like pickle juice.
I continued to pretend like I didn't know he existed and made small talk with my son. At one point, he asked me a question about money that my mom was holding for Ethan. My answer ended like this "But I bet she gave him to him." ("It" being "the money.")
Mother fucking Sterling looked me right in the eyes (Yes, the eyes that should NOT have been looking in STERLINGS direction, but forgive me, I'm human! I make mistakes!)
"Oh, she DID give it to him. OH yeah she did. I watched her give it to him. She gave it to him good, Oh yes she did."
People! He said that! With my 13 year old son standing right next to me!
I looked over at my sweet, innocent son, hoping he hadn't heard, or that if he had heard, it had went WAY over his head. But! I could tell by the paleness of his face that he TOTALLY got it. Some Dude just got nasty with his mom and he didn't take it well. Oh no he didn't. (Damn Sexual Education Classes.)
I stood there in a state of shock that Some Dude thought it was "ok" to say something like that in front of my son. All of these crazy, violent thoughts ran through my head.
"Punch him in the dick!"
"Scratch his eyes out!"
"Rip his chest hair out!"
I decided againt physical violence and went with a loud sigh of disgust accompanied by fierce head shaking and rolling of my eyes instead.
Once we got on the ride, we started laughing hysterically about STERLING. Andrew told me he felt angry and uncomfortable but was to afraid to say anything. All I can say is that STERLING is lucky that Ethan wasn't there, because, no one messes with me when Ethan's around. Homeboy LOVES his Mom and man, I wish he had been there. I would have loved to see STERLING get it between the legs.
(Um, I guess I should file this one under "You had to be there.")







"Oh, she DID give it to him. OH yeah she did. I watched her give it to him. She gave it to him good, Oh yes she did."
OMG!! I'm cracking up. And horrified all at the same time. What is wrong with people?
