Do Look Behind That Curtain

Her shower stunt dripped with irony.

- Janet Ingram

Back in 1965, when I was 13, I came home from a baby-sitting job to an empty house. My parents and brother were at church, and my sister was at work. I went into the bathroom and peeled off my clothes to take a shower. Just then, I heard my sister come home. I decided this was the perfect opportunity to scare her, so I hid behind the shower curtain to lunge out when she passed by. But instead of coming in, she dropped everything and ran out the door.
