The Old Adage is True

You know the one...When you are in a relationship, you'll be approached by members of the opposite sex. When you are single, not so much.

Last night, at the gas station, cringing with every tick of the gauges, and some guy walks over and asks if he can help me with that.
Ummmm...no thanks. I got it, unless you are offering to pay for the fill-up.
What about my windshield. He'll gladly clean it for me. It must be difficult for me to reach the center being so petite. Ummmm...yeah, no I think I am fine. He wishes me a good day and goes back to his car.

This morning, I woke at 3:00am with a migraine. I feel to cruddy to even wash my hair, which is in dire need. I pull it in a ponytail and put on some powder, blush and mascara. I stopped at the grocery store because I am out of Diet Coke and Lean Cuisines at school. Some guy coming out of the store flashes a big smile and brightly says, "Why, good morning!" while ignoring the other customer a couple of feet behind me.

But really, this was one of those mornings when I really needed that.

And Laughs-a-lot has nothing to worry about.

  • Yep, it's feast or famine! It's so good for the old ego too!
