yesterday i was at a fancypants overpriced grocery store that i stopped at on a whim on the way home. i picked up some spendy GF crackers, some brie made with goat milk, some awesome gelato and a $7 jar of salsa. ha. as i was standing in the frozen section looking at overpriced quarts of deliciousness, i saw a store worker approach me from behind. thinking he wanted to restock the freezer, i got out of his way. he said this to me:
“ma’am, you should keep doin’ what you’re doin’”
at this point, i thought, what? looking at gelato?
“i mean, you look good. i don’t know what your secret is: your husband, your aerobics class, whatever. just keep it up”
and then he rolled his cart of expensive beverages away and began restocking the kombucha cooler.
i did the whole disgust-delight-disgust-delight-masked-as-disgust thing you do when you’re getting hit on. ha. but he wasn’t really hitting on me.

Last night I went to a vegan hipster (and halfway gfree!) bar after work with my friend Jen and this older guy by the bar stopped us and said “Ladies, I’m happily married and I’m not creepy, but I thought you both dressed so nicely. You must shop at Nordstrom’s.” I learned a new secret. When your hair is a mess, you’ve had a crappy day, and you’re wearing ugly boring work clothes, hang out at a place where everyone else gets dressed from the goodwill trash bin.
I hearted hipsters yesterday. And old men who are happily married, but will still tell “nice young ladies” they look nice. And that vegan rice bowl…mmmmm.

Maybe it’s like when women do things to intentionally show respect to men. Not really hitting on them, but definitely appreciating them.
