It's funny how when I was 13 I looked about 18 and now it's the opposite. I still get ID' some places.Anyway. Looks eventually fade.

A male suitor was once so paralyzed by my beauty he requested that I cover my face with a bag during sex.

A street artist, so enraptured that he had to stop what he was doing and sketch me right there and then, rendered this likeness of me recently:

Default Re: I got asked.....

I've been going back and forth to the US for almost 8 years now (my OH lives there). One summer's day, sitting by the pool, this lady came up to me and asked:
Where are you from? .....
The UK (I replied)
OMG did you know Diana? ...
Well, I actually met her once....
OMG do you know Princess Fergie.....
No, I haven't met her...
Your english is very good, do they speak english in the UK?....
erm...yeah
Do you play the violin?.....
No, I don't
Are you the pool cleaner?
No.....I'm visiting my boyfriend and he lives here!!
Oh, ok, so you're not a Nanny?; I thought maybe I could ask you to look after my son!!

Without a word of a lie, that was our conversation. Suffice to say, I gave her a wide berth any time I set eyes upon her!!

After I explained that they didn't update the info on my credit card experation date and gave him the info he went back to saying "so how can I help you today!" Even though I have a basic East Coast accent and people are surprised I'm from New York He said he couldn't understand me! I asked for a supervisor!
I wonder if I had the same guy. I got a recorded call saying the Sears tech would be out the next day for the appointment and to call this number if I had a problem. So I called the number because I NEVER CALLED SEARS. The guy on the other end and I went round and round. His script obviously wasn't prepared for my call.
