The young man was an outrageous flirt, but then he implied I reminded him of his mother......so it was funny. Schmoozing the customers is his job, so I took it in the way it was intended. I told him flat out you are one outrageous flirt and you just made my day as I laughed. And thanks for the compliment.
You’re welcome-it was sincere. I never turn down a compliment, either-even from a schmoozer practicing their customer service skills-compliments are music...
I was supposed to go to dinner this evening with Nemesis, but the weather is going to continue rainy with flood warnings into night-so I texted that we should reschedule for tomorrow-storms and dinner on the patio of a restaurant on the river does not seem like a good idea, no matter how pleasant the food or company-he did not realize that there are two creek bridges on this road that flood when someone says “rain”...
So he texted back that sounded better-and has been texting every 30 minutes since then, asking me to remember this or that time we were together, flattering, etc-he is most definitely going to make me earn my money and is setting me up for it-I’ll bet the revelations will be one for my book-again-his outrageous ego never disappoints...
I rained 6 inches in the last 24 hours here-it quit just after dawn-the river is out of the banks and flooding, but is supposed to drop back by tomorrow. One of my neighbors told me the county workers just took down the barricades at the creek bridge, so we are now able to get to the FM and get around. The trails are all under rushing water-I went as close as I dared to the river just for a look, but there is no way to hike there safely.
