From the sublime to the ridiculous

ELLIE’S BIRTHDAY

January 12th, 2003 Posted in Uncategorized

From the cashier in Birthdays’ point of view, it was just another ordinary Saturday morning in Watford, busy processing customer purchases and glancing at the watch every few seconds to see if it was time to go home yet.

“Just that please”, I said as I placed the card on the counter. I had ventured into the shop to buy a card for Ellie C’s birthday and, despite the numerous, yet rather uninspiring, selection of Happy Birthday cards, I plumped for one that read ‘Happy Birthday Auntie’.

“Oh, and this” I added, and proceded to place on the counter the gift that I had selected for Ellie - a ‘Horny Devil Passion Pack’. The cashier looked at me strangely, shrugged her shoulders and scanned it through.

It was only about an hour later that I realised the cashier must have thought I was having some sort of sordid, perverted, incestuous sexual relationship with my aunt.
