One day at work, my co-worker and I were working when a customer that my co-worker knew came to the desk. They got into an interesting conversation, which I probably would've joined in on if I didn't have a customer too. The most I heard from it was, "When you get to my age..." It was bound to be interesting, seeing how this customer was an older woman. At least in her 70's. Maybe 80's. It was hard to tell because of the energy she had. After the customer left, the co-worker told me what had to be the funniest way to describe senior sex that I'd ever heard.
"When you get to be my age, it's like taking a wet, limp noodle and shoving it up a cat's ass. My mother told me that, and I never understood it until it happened to me."
Of course, I couldn't help myself. I laughed for a good five minutes. I've never heard anything like that. The co-worker disappeared for a little bit. Probably to help another customer. It was dead where I was, so unfortunately, as my brain does whenever it has a free moment. It started to wander. On a normal basis, it tries to think of ways for Prophecy to make sense. Basically, I edit in my head. Or I'm thinking of what the plot to Escape, the sequel to Prophecy, will be. That day, that was completely pushed out of my mind. Instead, I tried to picture the quote.
Fortunately, oh so fortunately! My brain understands the first rule of ANYTHING! What has been seen cannot be unseen. So any time my brain saw the noodle going anywhere near a cat, in my head, there would be howling cat sound that would break me out of my thought.
When my co-worker came back, the first thing she asked me was, "You're trying to picture it, aren't you?" I couldn't hide it. She laughed and said, "I am too." I didn't feel so alone anymore.
Awkward picture of the day!
