The Marine recruiters were here again today. Louis and one other recruiter were wearing ACUs (desert camo) and one other recruiter was wearing charlies.
I thought about trying to hit on them again, but when I saw that Louis was there again, decided against it. (Chickened out, really.) I told them the story about last time the recruiters were here. I told them my friend said he heard from basic that "women drop their clothes when they see Marines in their blues." The recruiter in charlies gave an "oh" that sounded like "aw, what a rude thing to say to someone who looks as sweet and innocent as you." (I was hoping they would laugh.)
I thought I'd take this occasion to tell the second half of the first story.
Later on that day, I saw the other recruiter, not Louis. He held the door for me, and I said "I have a friend in the Marines who said I should tell you that you should have worn your blues."
He looked at me.
He looked at me again.
Then he said, "Yeah. Yeah, I should have."
