You're gonna love this...
Back on track now...
I'm walking and as the long time readers may know...I have a problem (lets call it a passive addiction) to the sound of high-heels. particularly the sound of high-heels on tile or an otherwise hard surface. Now I'm walking along and this wonderfull sound was just so happening to be coming from the heels of a woman...that appeared to have a just about perfect...hmm, lets call it a "rear-profile"....for tact's sake.
Now my eyes slowly traveled upward...let me accentuate the word "slowly" one more time...I joyfully noticed that the rest of this woman ain't to shabby neither...now I had things to do and am not one to stare (huge lie)...so when she stopped to speak to an employee and some other man...I gave her the necessary, one-last-sideways-checkout...and went about my business.
Here's where things got interesting...
She comes Sauntering down the aisle tward me...looks directly at me and Says...with way too much purpose..."hey..."
so I politely replied, "hello...how you doin" (at this point all's still casual)
she then says with a crooked sultry half-grin..."i'm good....*slower now*...and how are you?"...
(when I acted the following words out to my roomate, she said it looks as if I'm "channeling Prince"...Purple Rain, you know....that Prince. Just not in the good way...more pompous slimy-slithery version)
I said, with a mild smirk...."I'm alllllwayys good......"
Now it was at this moment I noticed the guys she was talking too...watching intently...they obviously told her I checked her out and she was making a firty attempt at contact...
So like a complete idiot, as I was coincidentally fumbling for blue rubber painter gloves...(yeah It was that bad, you cant make this shit up)...I say the number one CREEPY response i could come up with.
the woman continued on (obviously)...as I mentally slapped my forehead with a resounding "DOH!"
My only hope was to slink out without having to see her again...Or if I saw her there'd be an opportunity to say "oh god, I swear that came out way creepier than intended"...and hope for a laugh.
I haven't felt so inept...unsmooth...hmm, no....single...yup...that's the one...single (ok, inept and unsmooth too) in a very very very long time...
Just thought I'd share the humor that is my life.
