I saw something today

It was something that I did not want to see.
It was something I hope to never see again.
First, let us go through all the facts:

1. I was over at Travis's house. Every single one of Trav's roommates had seen me, spoken to me, and knew that I was over. AND even if this were not the case:
a. I am always there, and it is a good rule of thumb to assume such.
b. Even if I weren't there, the house was full, the windows were open, and no one needs to see what I saw.

2. Once, in a similar (but different) circumstance, Travis saw one of my roommates in her underwear. He complained to a great extent. Yet, he does not pity me now.

3. Travis's roommate is neither slim nor hairless. In fact, one might use the words beefy, and extremely hairy. (In describing his hairiness, another roommate tugged at his thick dark side burn and said "It's like this, all over his back.")

4. Minutes previous to the sight which I did not want to see, I described to Travis the man from the book (not movie) Memoirs of a Geisha, whom the main character loses her virginity to. I can't think of anyone's name from that book, but for some reason we were talking about short, fat, hairy men and nakedness.

5. The bathroom at Trav's apartment is split, so that the sink and mirror are outside of the shower and toilet. So they're pretty much in the hallway.

6. A fly inadvertently flipped itself on to its back, and could not right himself. This happened on my plate, immediately after I finished eating. Travis tried to kill the fly with my fork.

7. In order to escape the view of Travis killing an upside-down insect with my eating utensil, I rushed midway down the hallway, towards the bathroom. Reflected in the mirror was a roommate coming OUT of the bathroom, where I assume he had been showering.

8. This roommate was not dressed. This roommate had no towel. This roommate saw me coming and turned and hunched down, kind of.

9. I saw Travis's roommate naked. Luckily, only from the back/side. Nothing too horrifying. Horrifying, yes, but you know. Nothing too awful.

10. Minutes later, after I had rushed back into the kitchen, Travis and I walked towards his bedroom for something. Travis walked ahead of me to make sure the coast was clear. I walked like two feet behind him. Travis passed the roommate's now closed bedroom door. A split second before I could pass the door, it opened. The naked roommate was now in mostly see-through white underwear. He stared at me, and shuffled into the bathroom.

11. Only I am scarred. Travis saw nothing and is not concerned. He thinks that it is funny.

12. This is not funny.

Those are the facts. Today was a good day, but this evening was quite wretched.

Context: Becky had finished eating and her dirty plate was sitting there with this fly on it. She had no intention of eating more so I smashed the fly with the fork which was sitting not an inch from the fly.
Lesson: People should not assume that others can't see them and should presume to take EVERY precaution when entering or exiting the bathroom. Guests should also watch the floor most of the time.

I thought girls were only allowed in the kitchen and living rooms of boys apartments at byu and should not have been in hallway or bedrooms even if being escorted by male tenant who lives there. The same applies to boys in girls apartments. Ahemmmmmm??!!!

ditto to Travis's moms comment! I thought the same thing. Stay in the kitchen where all is safe.
