Blue Drawers "Blues"
By Anthony L. Kelly Sr.

Jimmy Bumpkin had just started his new job as an office Do boy at a local insurance agency. Jimmy was so proud to be a Do boy. Everyone in his family was proud of him too. He had gotten his first job when he was 27 years old; unfortunately his first employer had to let him go because he kept burning the burgers. He'd gotten fired from his second job because he couldn't figure out how to operate the gas nozzle, but this job was going to be different.
The few tasks he had to perform were, take out the trash, make sure the staplers stay full, and a couple other inferior duties.
When Jimmy first started the job he immediately noticed the secretary. She was a beautiful young thing that was full of energy and spunk. It was love at first sight, for Jimmy that is.
 
One morning Jimmy's mother was getting his clothes together, when she ran across a pair of holey blue underwear.
"Jimmy, why do you still have these old holey underwear?" she hollered. "Momma leave ma drawers alone now!" said Jimmy in a loud voice.
"Those are my lucky drawers, and I'm wearing them to work so I can get a hot date."
"Now you know I done told you about wearing them holey ass drawers. What if you fall out or something?"
"Momma, I done told you one time, now leave ma drawers alone."
Jimmy snatched his favorite pair of underwear from his mother, and insisted that he would be wearing the underwear no matter what.
The next day, he stepped into work looking sharper than ever. His mother had pressed his uniform and braided his hair. He was also wearing his holey blue pair of underwear. Jimmy just knew that he was sure to get a date with the hot secretary. The whole day nearly went by before Jimmy had built up enough courage to ask the young lady out.
 
After he had nearly swept the entire office, he headed over to her desk to sweep. It was the perfect opportunity to ask her on a date. Jimmy wasn't a bad looking guy, and the secretary had been noticing him also; so when she saw that Jimmy was approaching her she waited to oblige him in conversation.
Jimmy was so proud of himself. It would be the second date of his life and he thought that he was ready; but as he got closer to the girl's desk, butterflies in his stomach suddenly began to move about in the most uncomfortable way. Jimmy began to slow down, for his stomach was really acting up. To save himself from embarrassment, he quickly passed the girl's desk and straight to the nearest restroom, which just so happened to be the female's bathroom. He sat down on the toilet and with all his might tried to release what ever it was that was making his stomach bubble. Nothing happened.
Then Jimmy remembered he and his twelve year old friends had had a cheese eating contest four days before he started the new job. Jimmy hadn't gone to the bathroom in nearly a week. He strained and grunted, but nothing happened. Finally he decided to put all of his might into pushing out what needed to be released. So he pushed and pushed, and pushed some more, until finally something happened.
"Ouch!"

Jimmy had popped a blood vessel in his left testicle.
"Help!! Somebody help me!"

He'd managed to get out a small piece, but the damage done to his self was definitely not worth it.
Since the girl's bathroom was right behind the hot secretary's desk, she was the first to come to Jimmy's aid. She opened the bathroom door to see Jimmy curled up holding his private area. His holey blue drawers waved back and forth from his ankles like a surrendering white flag as he whimpered and squirmed on the floor like a little girl.

Two weeks later Jimmy was back on the job. The cute girl was still there, but Jimmy was too embarrassed to even look in her direction. One day the girl approached him and said, "I think you're really cute, but you wear holey underwear. And I just can't do that."
Jimmy simply put his head down and continued to sweep in embarrassment. Jimmy had the Blue Drawers "Blues."
