Way too early in the morning for that!
It was about 9am this morning and I was sitting in Starbucks. I had dropped G off at the CDC and I had some studying to do. I took my normal place - in the corner, next to the window, facing the door - and began to research a paper I'm working on. It's a little 2-person table that's perfect to fit my stuff on.
A few minutes later, a girl walked in with her own stack of books. She ordered and took up residence beside me. RIGHT beside me on another 2-person table. It's after 9am. The place wasn't busy because most people had gone to work. The place was empty. Oh well. Maybe she liked facing the door too.
She proceeded to open her textbook and began to read. I couldn't help but glance over because she was seriously only a foot away. Anyway, I look over and...
WHAMO!!!
There it is. In all its glory, a very detailed drawing of a woman's exterior genitals. Wowza. It was graphic. Had hair and everything.
I am far from being embarrassed by that sort of thing but let me tell you. I would have had the same reaction if it had been a male. But, when you're deep into your own online research, have barely had a sip of your latte, and are minding your own business, I bet money that would startle you, too.
It was a biology book, by the way. Not sure if she was a nursing student or what but I sure was glad when she turned the damn page. How could I focus with "that" staring me in the face?
