Just an average girl trying to do what she can with the face and body given to her. I like to keep things simple with hair and makeup. Clothes and shoes are also simple. I don&#8217;t over do it and I feel weird when I do. <\/p>\n<p>So when someone in the skyway says to me, in passing, &#8220;Hey sexy!&#8221; I immediately look around to see who he&#8217;s talking to. Because, clearly, he can&#8217;t be talking to me. But then he says, &#8220;Oh, I see that big rock on your finger.&#8221; And I still look around for this sexy chick with a huge rock on her finger. (btw, my ring isn&#8217;t huge. It&#8217;s just that my hand and fingers are really small so the ring looks REALLY BIG.) (And, apparently, he was talking to me. There wasn&#8217;t anyone else around.)<\/p>\n<p>This all happened while I was walking to lunch. I didn&#8217;t say anything mostly because I didn&#8217;t believe it. I mean, really, when someone says something to you in passing, you might think, &#8220;were they talking to me?&#8221; And by the time you realize they may have been talking to you, you&#8217;ve walked away. What would you say to that person anyway? Thanks? <\/p>\n<p>Flattered, I was also somewhat grossed out. Since when did the skyway become a club for picking up chicks? Thanks for the compliment (and I&#8217;m sure my husband thanks you too), but no thanks. <\/p>\n<p>(Totally unrelated, but super exciting: I was asked to audition for some voice-over work at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tpt.org\/\"><span style=\"font-style:italic\">tpt<span style=\"font-weight:bold\"><\/span><\/span><\/a> and they liked my voice for kids spots!
