sistawendy: me in a Gorey vamp costume looking up (skeptic coy Gorey tilted down)
As I walked from the 358 to work this morning (past Fluevog - temptation!) I passed a couple of teenage girls. I heard one of them say, "Hey! There's that woman!" She tried to get my attention. 'Uh oh,' I thought.

She persisted. "Ma'am?"
I started to turn around.
"Sir?"
Said I, as civilly as I could manage, "Yeees?"

Silence.

I turned around and continued on my way. A few seconds later I heard giggling.

With idiots like that to deal with every day, no wonder kids show up at Lambert House.

That sucks. I'm sorry.

May not be much comfort but at least they did initially identify you as "that woman"...which is absolutely correct!

Maybe we can film an update to "That Girl" called "That Woman" starring you!

;)

*hugs*

Teaching moment next time you see them? Cuz they needz it! They don't know.
"I was in a hurry last time. Did you have a question for me, honey?" and chat them up. Let them see you as a person and they'll see you as your super wonderful self. :)

besides, less jail time for chatting than smacking upside.
