I want a sandwich!

Once upon a time... or one time at the bar... Have you ever come home with lipstick on your neck and not realized it?  It's happened to me, but it's not what you think.

See, I was working day bar one Sunday and I had to stick around into the evening because the afternoon tender was sick.  I had worked a 12 hour day, and I was ready to head home when I was asked to have a drink with this couple.  They were regulars, swingers and responsible about their drinking.  They swapped back and forth as to who could drink so that one of them would remain sober to drive home at the end of the night.  Well, this was her night to drink.

I had a drink with them and headed home.  Just before I left, she asked me to hang with them by throwing her arms around me and when I declined, she kissed my neck and said her good-bye.  (Now I am pretty sure her husband knew I had her lipstick on my neck and just didn't tell me.)  So, I didn't think about it until I got home, sat down next to my girlfriend.  She noticed immediately that I had some red marks on my neck.

I rubbed my hand on my neck and said, "Oh it must be -----'s lipstick."  Oh, that was not how I should have explained that.  It took a while to explain who the couple were, and even after my girlfriend was pretty pissed about the whole thing.

About a month later, she finally met the girl who kissed my neck and they became fast friends.  Funny how it all worked out, but my advice is to not giggle when explaining why you have lipstick on your neck!
