NSVs

Your mom got hit on! How awesome! .. ok, well don't think of
her as your mom right this second.

It's fun watching former co-workers eat their livers too-
perhaps she hadn't considered Atkins it's quite good for
slimming ;-)

Awesome NSVs! Julie

My mother and I were at a tradeshow tonight and each
experienced cool NSVs:

I had 2 people I hadn't seen in a while tell me how great
I looked. One of them actually walked past me and I had to
call her name, and even then it took a second before she
realized who I was! I also had one former co-worker
staring daggers at me - she was always on various fad
diets (cabbage soup anyone?) and never lost a pound. She
was quite obviously not impressed that I had.

And my mother had an interesting encounter with a
stranger. We had plates from the food bar (my dinner ended
up being 1 mini hamburger (very dry), 2 very mini
perogies, 2 mini quiches, 1 chicken finger, 1 slice of a
melted chicken wrap (about 1"😉 and a cookie). As we were
making our way to the other side of the crowded room this
guy (40's) bumped into my mother (early 60's) and after
the "sorry" exchange he said "Hey that looks good"
followed by "and the food does too". Needless to say she
was quite flattered (although if I had heard I might have
smacked him!).

All in all, despite the gain this morning, a good day!

I'm jealous of your mom! I might need to contact her for
lessons in flirting. Somewhere along the way I forgot how to
do that, and it's a skill that doesn't seem to be retained
like know how to ride a bike
is. LOL

Good for her. Linda P On Tue, 23 Mar 2004 02:49:58 GMT,

Maybe, unlike Gerald Ford, you can flirt and ride a bike at
the same time (Ford was challenged to chew gum and something
at the same time!)

Hey, thanks for the suggestion! I guess I should've made
better use of the opportunity a couple of weeks ago when I
first bought the bike and an exiting customer stopped to
help me load it into my van. Shoot!

Actually it kinda made me feel good, in a strange kind of
way. She's never liked me, was fairly nice to me when she
first started at the office and then for the last 3 months
or so before I was laid off was just truly a witch.
Extremely nasty. So here I was, someone she can't stand, and
I've managed to do what she's been trying to do for years.
And it bothers her to no end.

I should feel bad about that, I guess.

Oh well 😉

People like that are not worth stressing over. What goes
around, comes around.

I had one in my office. She did everything in her power to
make sure that I was downsized instead of her. She won that
battle but she's still at the company and is miserable with
all of the stress and extra work she received as a result of
the downsizing. She got hers <g>.
