31 Days, 31 Memories - Day 2
2. High School
Christmas Day, and my family went to the movies. I was already grating against the tradition then but wasn’t aware enough or brave enough to say I wanted to stay home. The movie had ended and I was standing in the lobby while everyone else used the restrooms. A middle-aged woman and her husband passed by. She gave me the once-over and whispered to him, loud enough that I heard her, "You can tell we’re the only Christians here."
