She Slept With A Married Man & Ate Acorn Squash!

What a funny title but it's true.  I'm trying to eat healthy, so I decided tonight for my nighttime snack I was going to eat a sweet potato instead of a bag of chips.  Baking 1 sweet potato for a snack seems so odd until I have a flashback.  I had graduated from college and moved to Baton Rouge.  Not knowing the city and being a tightwad lead me to having roomates (all girls of course).  This one roomate I had I so admired from a distance.  She was tall, thin, very neat, and going to school to be a mechanical engineer.  I thought she was so smart to be studying a field dominated by men.  I'm not going to judge my roomate too much because she helped me out on many occasions.  I remember one night a guy shows up to see me like at midnight, she told him to get lost that I was sleeping because I had to get to work early the next day.  My Savior...  Wait a minute!!!.. I just remembered we shared a room.  There was Desiree in her twin bed on one side of the room and there was my roomate in her twin bed plus her boyfriend of the moment on the other side of the room (4 feet apart).  I remember putting the pillow over my head many of nights..... GROSS but TRUE.  Now the married man was just one occasion that I remember.  There was a knock on the door, I answered it, and there standing was a 40 year old married man.  I was shocked because we were only 21 years old.  He wasn't there to see me obiviously.... I asked no questions...Now That's Shocking....Young Desiree never asking.... Who?...What?...When?...and Where?... That really was Young Desiree who now "Puts all her business on the streets". Then there was the time this Tall Tall Amazonish guy wanted to be with me & my roomate.  I thought come on Desiree be Sophisticated & Swinging.  We all 3 go to the store to get Bubbles?...WTF?.....Back at our appartment in our living room, Tall Tall Amazonish guy told me to kiss my roomate.... I said to myself, "Oh, Hell No, Party Is Over"..... I then Ran To My Room and Locked The Door.  Those Swinging 80's were Somethin' Ay?....  What about the Acorn Squash?  Well I'm the type of person if I'm hungry, I eat.  I never wait for anything.  Here's my roomate who was starving takes an acorn squash, wraps it in foil, and sticks it into the oven for an hour.  I though, "An Hour?... Wow, What Discipline!".... She goes back to studying and patiently waits for her Acorn Squash.  I on the other hand think for an hour, "What's Acorn Squash?"... The End~
