Two weeks ago we were out walking the dogs. Check. I was wearing a pink "Life is Good" t-shirt, some comfy stretchy blue athletic shorts and flip flops. Check, check, and check. As we were crossing the street, this guy stops me and gives a warm hello and says "You don't think you can walk right in front of me without saying hello, do you?" and I exclaimed that I was very sorry, but I didn't know him!
I have a doppelganger in this here city, my friends! I absolutely cannot wait to run into this woman; she's got a lot of friends who say hi to me, wave at me when they're driving and otherwise "recognize" me, but not for realsies! It's so odd!
Anywho, this guy proceeds to tell me that this gal is named Becky and that she's great and he apologized for stopping me like that! And then he said, it's a compliment because she's adorable and so am I!!
Adorable? I have not been called adorable since I was like 12 years old! I'll take it! Nice!
Then, today. Huh? Here I was lugging my bags of yummies home from the Farmer's Market; I had potatoes, onions, baby eggplants, green & yellow beans, shrimp, pickles, eggs and cucumbers. Quite the bounty, no? So here I am, walking home, minding my own biz when these two guys, on the youngish side, slowed their truck down and yelled out to me! What did they yell, you ask? Well, let me tell you what they said, shall I? (I'm trying to up the suspense here; is it working?)
They yelled "Hey! Nice LEGS!" And they smiled and drove away!
So, of course, I looked behind me to see what young thing had these nice legs, but there was no one! They were yelling it at ME!
There were these two ladies standing there and they started giggling and then so did I! I told them that I hadn't had anyone yell out to me like that since I was in my 20s! And I also said, I guess I'll take the compliment! They told me it was going to be a good night!
And you know what? It IS a good night! Hubby is out with his friends, it started raining literally 30 seconds after I got home (and I meant to water earlier in the day), the night is young, and lastly?
I've got nice legs!! : )
hee hee!
Hope you're having an equally nice evening (or day, as it were!).
I and my adorable self:
with my nice legs:
are going to go start dinner.Ciao!
That you do! :0)
ReplyDeleteGreat looking gams as they were sometimes called.
Some elderly gent at the Outback last Sunday said to my hubby as he was waiting for me to pull the car up to him."That your wife...she's nice looking."
Hubby said back to him as he got in the car," you need to get new glasses."
He jokes that way....glad I know him well. :0)
Oh! How great to be called "adorable" and complimented on your "nice legs!" Nice! OMG that's best.
