My 1st Lesbian Experience

Ok..well it wasn't my first, but the first was like over 26 years ago when a girlfriend on my street told me she was gay as I was sitting on her couch watching General Hospital. She told me and then spent the rest of the show watching me. I felt her staring at me and casually left after GH assuring her that nothing would change. I never went back there again and avoided her as much as possible when you live on the same street.

This experience was a little different. I was not sitting on a couch, I was not 14 and my kids and a friend were with me.

Walking through the mall the other day I was dodging vendors left and right until I came upon a women resembling Salma Hayek. She was holding one of these little beauties in her hand




The Squiggler

I always wanted to try one so I shouted over the crowd. How much? She walked over with her long, flowing hair, bohemian skirt and Salma accent; grabbed my wrist, placed the Squiggler on my head and said, "hold on sweetie, I am a women and I am wonderful to be with are you ready to go there?" Well...I am as hetero as the next person but if I let her keep that damn squiggler on my head a second longer I would have needed a moment. I took it off my head and asked her how much. She said $25.00 but if you really, really want one I can give it to you for $19.00. I haven't a pot to piss in. We get groceries from the friggin food pantry, my kids are angels on the friggin post office Christmas tree for 2 years in a row now and I bought one. This chick could sell a pair of reading glasses to a blind guy.

My husband has asked me to tell him the story a few times now.
