A couple years ago at my retail gig, I saw an elderly woman in a wheel chair accompanied by an attendant. She was wearing a beautiful pink straw hat with a wide brim. I went up to the woman and complimented her on her wonderful hat. She reached for my hand and asked if I … More Marry Me
I’m sure that everyone has had the experience where they meet a complete stranger and know immediately that talking to them is going to be fun. At my retail gig a gentleman came in once and I knew if was going to be fun to work with him. We spent more time talking than actual … More Dick’s

During the summer I purchased a new pair of shoes in my favorite brand that just happened to be orange. One day I wore those orange shoes with a navy blue suit, an orange patterned dress shirt and a very bright matching Ted Baker bow tie.

I worked on my own at the retail gig yesterday. Toward the end of my day while waiting for my replacement, I got a call to action by my bladder (a call which should be understood by anyone reading this).
