Today, Eric, Rebecca, Daniel and I decided to visit Stephen F. Austin, the ‘educational’ hell hole were I spend the last four years of my adolescent life (I’m an ADULT now!) YAY! ha ha ha ha… ha.... Ha ha.... ::slowly glances around::... ahem.... ANyways… on the way there we realize Rebecca’s shorts are… well, a little out of dress code. She comtemplates staying in the car, but Eric and I urge her to go in anyways, saying we’ll cover her.
We meet Jessica and Christine and go outside to the outdoor pavilion thingie where students eat sometimes. On the way over to a table, Rebecca’s length impaired choice of trousers are spotted. And by none other than the head of the school’s ROTC, Commander what’s-his-name.
And so the drama unfolds…..(dum dum dum….)
Rebecca: *mutter* … shit ….*mutter* … he saw me… shit! he’s coming over!
I stifle an extremely strong urge to burst out laughing and nonchalantly start to read a Pride and Prejudice sequel Jessica lent me. ( I know I still look like a high school student...)
Commander: Young lady, you know why I’m over here … blah blah…. Shorts too short....blah blah blah..…
Rebecca: I know… ::lies:: I woke up late this morning and these were the only pants I could find!
Commander: Still… blah blah…. Too short… blah.
Rebecca: ::lies again:: I have jeans I can change into!
Me: ::thinking:: ‘What the hell is she talking about?! No she doesn’t!’
Commander: I think you should go with me to the AP’s office…
Me: ::smiles:: um… she doesn’t go here… she’s kinda just visiting…… ...
........sorry?
Commander: We have rules about that… blah blah… not supposed to…. Blah blah…
....turns to rebecca How did you get here?
Rebecca: um….
Eric: She was dropped off.
Me: She’ll be gone after lunch.
Daniel appears at the scene, with Christine, and STUPIDLY carrying car keys and a cell phone in his bare hands. PHONE RINGS. I smack him under the table… but it’s too late! Commander what’s-his-name’s attention is diverted! …. For now…..
Commander: Is that a cell phone?
Daniel: ::smiles:: heh...
Commander: You don’t go here, do you?
Rebecca: ::half heartedly smiles:: he’s the guy that dropped me off…...?
Commander lectures about visitors... trespassing... blah blah blah...get arrested...blah blah. Meanwhile some random guy appears next to the coke machine..
Random Guy: commander, do you have 20 bucks?
Commader: what do I look like, a Christmas tree?
(I thought it was funny…)
Commander: I think I should take you both to see the AP
I start panicking. What the heck are eric and I gonna do? Daniel then has the gall to ask the commander for a few more minutes with jess and Christine. When we’re done, we all walk to the commander. Eric suggests to him that we could walk around campus to the parking lot, to avoid the pack of useless Aps in the cafeteria.
Commander: You can’t. ::points to roof:: There’s cameras everywhere.
(Before we had gone into the school, Eric had pointed out a trash can outside that had the initials of our school district, Fort Bend, emblazoned on it. He called it FBI school district because it said F.B.I.S.D. He now chuckles at the mention of cameras everywhere.)
ANyways, we follow the Commander outside… and So begins what Rebecca calls ‘The Walk of Shame’…………….
We are escorted through the cafeteria with our heads bowed down…
The cacophony of adolescent voices and movements
Drowned out by the blood pounding in our ears….
Our cheeks inflamed, our gaits sluggish, and our spirits rendered meek from embarrassment……
That journey from the outdoor patio to the student parking lot was the longest trek I’ve ever made…
Just kidding! It really was kinda funny. We laughed about it in the car for the next 10 minutes. So we were kicked off campus. We got to visit, say goodbye, and have an incredibly amusing morning. Daniel declared the 40 minute drive to Sugar Land well worth it.
I agree whole-heartedly.
