43. I've both had racist things said to me and no doubt said racist things in turn

I was on a date last week (that reminds me, I gotta call her back!) and was asked about what music I liked. I said "man, I can't stand rap. bet you love it, right?" thinking "knowing my luck meeting new people, if it's something I hate, it'll be something she loves" not "she's black, I'm white".

I've just about removed the grass and dirt from shoving my foot into my mouth, but it'll take a couple more brushings to be minty-clean again.
