Oh, Good Lord, Joe...
That was too rich! So funny that the Clinton joke came to you at that moment - couldn't have come at a better time!
Take care!

Oh, my, Joe Love.....I couldn't stop laughing....
The Clintons will be back soon enough and then we can all "breathe" or "breathalyze" a sigh of relief, lol. That little red-headed girl. This was priceless and we could sense your anxiety about wanting a pr. in medium. Nicely told, my Amy Grant type of friend.

It sounds a bit like those stories you read about young men going into the shop to buy condoms. They worry about the shop assistant and meanwhile the shop assistant could be selling cabbage for all she cares... ;-)

Joe, I too am waiting
for the Clintons to be back in office. Glad you'll be prepared. I'm heading out now to buy my RG a pair of those boxers so he'll be ready too.

Joe!
If I'd have been there, I would have given you a kick in the arse! THEY are selling the boxers! Why should YOU, the CUSTOMER, be embarrassed to buy them, regardless of your sexual orientation? You're projecting your uneasiness onto the redneck retailers who sell them in the first place! You go, boy! As far as that store is concerned, I'm sure their motto is "Sell 'em if we got 'em!" They were lucky to have you as a customer whose credit card wouldn't be declined!

There is always someone that will appear out of nowhere and catch you doing something embarressing. I get over that by just buying in the hope it will fit. As a result I have a wardrobe full of clothes that don't fit and weren't returned 'cos I was too embarressed to take it back saying it didn't fit or 'cos you can't return undies.
You could always do like my ex - Send someone else to buy the underwear and cut out the "Large" and then have them lie and say it's a medium. Or, like he finally did, when he admitted that he was a large, say he needs more room up front 'cos acertain asset has grown.

It pays to muster up courage. I've had many good things happen as a result of disregarding what people might think of me. Good writing, too. It was enjoyable to read.

Your courage in the store will pay off in the bedroom. Now, be as bold as you were in the store and tear your Monster up.

Breathalizer boxers huh?
almost makes me wish I wore underwear...
...peace Joe, and it's just as well boat guy did not pursue Alisha, I would have knocked him out and thrown him off his own boat. One thing I will never put up with is someone being rude to my woman in my presence. I'm just old fashioned like that.

Joe,
The really tough part in a situation like the one you describe is in differentiating between the Rejection and the projection. Who dunnit, them or you? And why? It doesn't really matter, except that it is always comforting to be master of your own mind. That isn't easy enough to ever be completely accomplished, but the more you know about who is where, the more entertaining life becomes.

I admire the heck out of you Joe, that has to be tough to go through. As an alcoholic I have felt stigmatized by people on occasion when I mentioned that I was an alcoholic in aswer to the question of why I didn't drink.
Actually, a senior manager of 3M many years ago, stood up and asked me to leave his office when he read on my resumé that I belonged to AA. So, I think we like soul brothers my friend and God bless ya.
