Just when I thought I had seen it all
So,
after the infamous pre bid this morning, my truck informed me that it needed gas. I drove to the nearest BP station to fill up. I stood outside freezing my ass off and decided that I needed a drink for the trip back to the office. I went into the little store and wandered around till I found a Coke and went to the counter to pay for it. I got to the counter, took one look at the attendant and damn near dropped the coke on the floor.
From the back he looked like your average black man. His hair was in dreads, he looked like he worked out, he was in decent shape, and I noticed an earing. So far so good. As he turned, I noticed that his side burns were longer, and they flared out at the bottom, but no beard. When I saw his face, he wore a goatee. Then I looked at his eyebrows.
(Holds his hand in the air and swears on the Bible). This man? had plucked his eyebrows and painted then back on with mascara, just like your old Aunt Gertrude does. They were very artistic, kind of swirly like the scrollwork on a violin. If he wouldn't have opened his mouth, I might have thought that they were tattoos. He was tooo swishy for tattoos.
Gawd what some people will do.
Peace
