Today something happened that reminded me of the 1981 movie Arthur.
There is a scene where he's in a fancy restaurant with a lady of the night that he picked up earlier. They start talking and then he yells out "You're a hooker? Jesus, I forgot! I thought I was doing GREAT with you!"
Well today I got called a hooker. Oh not like in the movie but I was mistaken for a prostitute. I will explain. I went on a meetup group meeting downtown that was being held in an expensive hotel. I have never been to this hotel before, nor have I gone to one of these meetup group meetings. Now this is a PROFESSIONAL meetup group. And I don't mean THAT profession either. It was a women's entrepreneurial meeting. I wore a business suit. A BUSINESS SUIT!!!!! Now I don't have tons of money but I don't exactly dress in rags either.
I walked in, looking admittedly lost, when some smuck walks up to me and asks me if I was "looking for someone." Well of course I was looking for someone! Duh. So I said yes. Well then he proceeds to tell me that he's only in town for the weekend and that he will only pay up to $1500 a night! I was shocked and confused. The only thing I could squeak out of my appalled mouth was, "What?!"Of course the moron decides to repeat what he said. I was disgusted.
I told him that I wasn't a hooker and walked off. I have never been so humiliated in my whole life. It did prompt me to go to the rest room and ensure that I didn't over do it on the make up. I found my group and had a good time.
Note to self, don't wear skirt, wear pants!
Until next time....
