if i can't feel good, at least i can look good

tonight in public square, where i made my bus transfer, i was told that i was looking fine. i had just been thinking how pregnant i feel. my belly protrudes in that way that makes people ask, "is she pregnant or just getting fatter?" my hair needs to be cut, and colored, for that matter (2 1/2 weeks until i'm clear for color!). i was trying not to puke. and this nice man tells me i'm looking fine. sometimes, i get what i need.

you can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes... oh sorry, the Stones are playing in my town tonight (no I didn't go) and your last line just got me singing...

hey, being told you're looking fine is a good thing, no matter whether you were feeling fine beforehand or not.

Not to burst your bubble...but WHERE exactly was this bus transfer? I've ridden that RTA and some of those stops are filled with people whose opinion I just might not trust. :o)

Kidding, of course. I'm sure you're adorable. Of course, we wouldn't really know for sure since you haven't posted new pictures in MONTHS. (hint, hint, hint)

listen, i didn't claim that i was looking fine; someone else told me. i was wearing a black corduroy jacket, a grey t-shirt, black maternity pants, and black skechers - definitely not a come-hither ensemble.

the person who made the comment was quite lucid, catherine, thank you very much, and nicely dressed! if he likes women with bulbous behinds and greenish casts to their skin, who are you to doubt him???

The best is when the dudes at Dave's started "mamacita - que rico!" y "hubba-hubba" as you shot back, tounge sharp as ever, in spanish...

"Dude, she just busted you!"

Glad to hear the dude was lucid, the last guy to slur "hey pretty lady" at me wasn't even three sheets to the wind, I think he was four!
