So.... Tell me a little about yourself.

I hate when people ask this of ....

My mind immediately goes here and I'm temped say, pick a category!



I'll take 'Inappropriate Humor' for a $0, Alex!

I was at the Pine Squirrel with my today for a fun Mother's Day lunch when we happened across the father to one of his friends.

Nice guy, had a lot of nice things to say about my ....

But when he asked tell him a little about myself it was like, deer in the headlights.

Should I open with rambling honesty?

Followed by insecurity and awkward laughter??

Or go straight for the foot in mouth moment!

I chose vague personal details accompanied by a squirrel joke that only I laughed at.

Smooth I am not....

Happy Mother's Day!

As long as he didn't think you were a nut-case (after the squirrel joke), you should be fine.

Perhaps I'm not as complicated and unorthodox once you start to understand the way my mind works.

When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

I would have, but his exact words were "It's good to finally meet mom. So, tell me about yourself. Who are your parents?" He was trying to figure out if I was local.

I used to IM on here quite a bit.... You're right! It was always much harder to chat with someone I didn't know or hadn't talked to than it was with someone I considered a friend. I don't work well 'on the spot'.

    ask what would you like to know and don't get to personal.

    hope it was a good day after all.
He was married... I think he was just curious about me. He had met my ex husband numerous times over the years when the boys got together to do things, but never me.
