This might be working too well..

I haven't been posting many of my attempts to open up but you can be sure I've been working hard on it. In fact I'm pretty sure I've been doing too well at this self inflicted task.

Like most people I enjoy eating out every now and then. By default of being roommates I usually end up going with my sister. After several outings we start to wonder how it looks to outsiders. When you look around noticing most of those around you are couples, you wonder "Do we look like a gay couple?" This question had been weighing on my mind for some time. One night when we were at Chilis, we were admiring our good looking server when Elizabeth posses the question "Do you think he thinks we are gay?" I couln't take it anymore. I, the ever so shy Ms Rebecca Wood, asked him point blank "Do we look like a gay couple?" After a very puzzled look, lots of explaining, and a large tip I walked away with a sense of relief... and shock that I had gathered enough courage to do that. Needless to say I still have yet to show my face there again.
