Embarrassing conversations...

Did you ever have a conversation which suddenly turned into the conversation you wished never to have happened. I seem to be getting quite a few lately, thanks to Lucy, a nice lady who works in our packing department at work. We often exchange banter, and maybe a little flirting, but there are times when she can be a little too outspoken. This is a chat from last week...

About 3:30 in the afternoon I went into the canteen for a bar of chocolate, several other were there including Lucy. The (rather public) conversation went like this:

Lucy: What have you got there?
Me: Chocolate.
Lucy: Why? You'll get fat.
Me: Eh?
Lucy: You need to go on a diet, that's all I'm saying. You're fat. You shouldn't be eating chocolate.
Me: What's that got to do with you?
Lucy: If you are too fat you'll get out of breath when we're having sex.
Canteen lady: Lucy! What a thing to say!
Lucy: I'm just saying that's all, you need to diet.

At this point I made polite conversation and left - the only real safe option. For now I'm keeping a low profile   

btw, this isn't funny...

Er, no. There are limits.


True....and *shudder* it'd take an eternity getting those remaining chocky morsels from out of the wrinkles.

Several people on the shop floor have started referring to Lucy as my 'bride'. That is a very disturbing development


Very disturbing indeed....let's just hope this gossip & innuendo don't lead to the occurrence of a shotgun-type wedding. Eastern European culture would have you making an honest woman of Lucy for just a peck on the cheek, so I'd nip this 'intimacy' notion in the bud ASAP if I were you....otherwise you'll either be marrying or emigrating rather unexpectedly to Oz.

We do get on really well together, which is a basis for a good friendship. All the talk around the company makes things a little awkward though   

you'll either be marrying or emigrating rather unexpectedly to Oz

The lesser of two evils? I'd rate both about the same on an anxiety/desirability scale

I see little pointy eared chocoholic gymnist in your future.  

Does she at least have a sexy accent?

Yeah, I know what you mean....folks will have you doing (or planning to do) things that never seriously entered your mind/s. Such is life when people live ordinary and/or mundane lives....if the romantic or adventurous isn't happening for themselves or anyone close to them, they invent it to liven up an otherwise dull existence/lunch break....

....next thing you'll hear is that you're expecting a little 'Nadia'; that one day she'll grow up to snatch first place from the Eastern Europeans & the Ruskies to win 'gold' for Great Britain in the Olympics.

I thought similarly when I was 16 and my folks were emigrating to Oz from Devon. I was going to run away the night before and live like a feral on Dartmoor (at least until they had rounded Cape Horn), but I still found myself boarding the ship with them the next morning....

37 years later I can look back and say it wasn't a bad thing. Like anywhere else in the world, Oz has some good points and some bad. I've had some good things happen for me here, and then some not so good, but I wouldn't change a thing even if I could. My family is here, my kids and grandkids were born here, so now, even though I'll never forget my English roots/heritage, Australia is home to me now and always will be.

Simple solution...tell Lucy this 'sex thing' is exactly like taking lollies to school....if you going to have one yourself you have to have brought enough for the whole class......

If it comes down to a choice between her and chocolate, well, what can I say


You uh, you did choose the "chocolate"  ...right? I mean, it's hard to find good "chocolate"   you know..so if it' thrown in yer face, you gotta take advantage of it. AM I WRONG?

Nope, you're not wrong....trouble was that everyone had heard of and was gossiping about what was on offer, so Fuzzy wisely went with the chocolate instead..
