Speaking of our G-Rating ...
"Mommy, I need to pee!", said the little girl in the fourth row, loud enough for the whole auditorium to hear her.
Everybody on stage froze, then turned towards the audience.
The little girl's mother, embarrassed by the commotion, said "You should have gone during the intermission! You'll have to hold it until the next break. Now, be quiet!"
"But, mommeeeee ....", whined the little girl.
"Shhhhh!!", shushed the crowd, almost simultaneously.
Mommy got up, took the girl by the hand, and dragged her up the aisle. "We'll probably miss the best part because of you!", she growled at her daughter.
Several members of the crowd murmured something. Some chastising the mother for the way she handled the situation, others muttering "It's about time she shut that kid up".
Back on stage, Precious looked bewildered.
The unexpected interruption had made her lose her place in the script. That wasn't really too difficult, since Precious lacked the ability to concentrate on any one subject for more than 17 seconds. She knew exactly how many seconds, because she counted them once ... but lost track when she forgot why she was counting. |
