NOT WHAT I MEANT!

I teach art. My first day of school, I was busy preparing all my materials and the principal came walking in to ask if I needed anything. He was handsome, newly single and I felt like a schoolgirl around him. Anyway, he said "Anything I can do for you?" I said "Can I get felt?" There was a pregnant silence with me feeling very foolish and the color creeping up my neck. After what seemed like an eternity he said that I'd find felt squares in the supplies cabinet and then he got out of there as fast as he could. I cringe to this day when I think of it.
