Naked Christmas

I'm going to come right out and say that this post really has nothing to do with naked Christmas. Rather the title of the post is a lazy marriage of the following two concepts:

1) I dropped the word 'naked' in my last post and left it there without explanation.

2) I can no longer resist the imminent Christmas spirit. It is October 10th.

Let me first begin by explaining why one should never, ever, ever mess with me when I'm naked. Some weeks ago, I was taking a quick shower before running to class. At this same time, and without my knowledge, Pervy Realtor was showing Unsuspecting Couple around the unit in another desperate attempt to sell. (Now, according to state ordinance, our management company is required to notify us before showing the unit. They do not make a habit of doing this.) I finished my shower and as soon as I shut off the water, I could hear the Realtor and guests walking around. It was obvious that they had been poking around for a while, and it must have been obvious to them that I had just turned off the shower. I was the only person home and the front door had been locked, so I did not lock the bathroom door before beginning my shower. I assumed it must be obvious to Pervy Realtor & Co. that the only occupied room in the hall must be the one with the shower in it (bonus points for the light being on and the shower having been on a mere 15 seconds earlier). But alas, I had just begun the toweling process when the whole company threw open the door. And there I was -in all my naked grandeur. I didn't say anything, nor did they. I only gave them the angriest eyebrows I could muster as they retreated. I should clarify by saying that I don't necessarily have a problem with nakedness. I happen to hate clothing more than I dislike being naked. But if you're not invited to this party, I will hate you forever for crashing -even if you are an Unsuspecting Couple and especially if you are a Pervy Realtor.
They did not buy. He did not close. Management has hired a notification service.

Merry October Christmas.
