*snap!*

tonight i was invited to participate in a focus group for a large clothing company. i was looking forward to it, especially the $150 cash to be given as compensation. so i make my way to the large office building downtown. arriving quite a few minutes early, i settled in to a chair in the corner, observing the few others around me.

a couple minutes later, an attractive guy walks in and sits in the row of chairs opposite me. like myself, he was playing around on his phone, probably texting like crazy, as was i. looking at him a bit more closely, i noticed again how attractive he was and thinking that gary would also appreciate this fine male specimen.

i decide i'm going to snap a quick picture on my phone and send the picture to gary. my phone was on silent, not even able to vibrate. i discretely hold the phone up, zoom in a couple times and then stop. i think to myself, "now i know that this phone is on silent. it would be just my luck for the loud camera-like sound to startle those around me. nah....". *SNAP!* of course it does. of course people look directly at me.

i quickly throw my phone in my lap, giving the appearance that i'm just playing with my phone and accidentally hit the camera button. then the redness came, along with the warmth across my face.

i was humiliated. and to top it off, i didn't even get a chance to save the picture! what a waste of embarrassment.

sidenote: he should have left his hat on. he was WAY hotter with the hat.
