Ok, where can I get a waterproof, sturdy No Soliciting sign for my home? One that I can post in the front yard? We get a steady parade of solicitors on our street, daily. Todays gem? Doorbell chimes. Sean answers the door to find a gal dressed in lets go for drinks attire; a very fitted black tank top, tight skirt and sky high black boots, which of course is the perfect attire for pounding the pavement looking for donations to help the children. What could go wrong? I could hear her carrying on in that specific, syrupy sing-song tone frequently found in young gals flirting with a roadie to get a back-stage pass. They were on the front porch and she was so loud I could hear her side of the conversation all the way back in my office. She was giggling non stop and even threw down some straight up cackles and man, she was pouring it on- THICK, THICK, THICKUMS! You have a daughter??? Oh my God, thats SOOOO great!! (as if we spawned a unicorn instead of a mere mortal) Followed by, Waaaait, HOW old are you? (insert over the top gasp) WHAT?! No! Youre kidding meeee!!! *cackle* (I felt cavities form from the sugar oozing from the gal looking to help the children) She went on, clearly Sean was being pulled into the web of compliments as the conversation continued for 15 minutes. (a gal laying compliments on a guy? What, thats a thing? Who knew! @candyfromababy) You look soooo good! (Insert poor attempt at sounding ever so slightly embarrassed here) You actually look... (insert vocal equivalent to batting eyelashes here) - ... you actually look a lot like my boyfriend, you have the same eyes, you have really nice eyes.... It went on... We actually live real close... do you ever go to the beer... blah blah blah. And this is only one example from the parade of solicitors coming to our door. After a while, it gets REALLY annoying to have your day interrupted by that kind of disingenuous, waste of time crap. Yep, its time for a sign on the front lawn. #lame #smarterthanthat
