Renee's Catskill Romance

I was about 14 yrs of age and not very interested in, or attractive to boys. This was of concern to my parents. They took me to Grossinger's and strongly encouraged me to meet them. Well, there was a very handsome shy boy, who was always looking at me.. but never speaking. He was sitting in the lobby, near the rest rooms, and my folks kept prodding me to walk past him, on the way to the ladies room. I did just that, and felt his eyes follow me into the facilities. After a few minutes, I walked out and I heard 3 gasps: from the boy, my Mother and my Father.. It wasn't until I reached my horrified parents, did I find out that this long roll of toilet paper was stuck on the bottom of my shoe and was creating a trail all over the lobby of Grossinger's. That was the end of my big romance!
