good morning good morning

This morning I was walking off campus around some road construction vans near President's Circle. I heard a "Damn girl!" assumed it was for someone else, and continued walking. But when I came around the other side of one of the vans, the man behind the voice craned his neck, looked at me and added "Nice boots!"

So that's a nice way to start a day.

And, what? No pictures of the boots in question?

That is the BEST!

Whenever I need a pick me up I make a visit to our IT department. They're always willing to dish out a (verging on inappropriate) compliment.

Are you sure he said boots?

Ems said...

ha! but yeah...nobody's noticing those on me from very far away, that's for sure.

at first i thought that said "nice boobs!" and i was feeling (for you) that weird combo of grossed-outness and being flattered (cuz, yay! i love my own boobs!) that you feel whenever a stranger calls you out like that.

but then i realized it was "boots" which is much more appropriate. you can go ahead and feel flattered without the grossed out part.
