Sometimes people use their blogs to share their innermost thoughts, to keep people up to date with their kids, to discuss their political views, to advertise, etc. I keep this dorky ittle blog mostly just to make Mom, Jenn and Mike laugh (as well as the other 3 people that may read it). I don't try to be sophisticated, intellectual, or controversial. I just like to post photos of my family and be silly. The end. I also find it a fun place to tell and show the embarrassing. Which is why, I have to tell this story. It's almost too bad to tell, but if you are familiar with my previous "ghetto booty" story, you will appreciate this even more:
Today I walked into the Y at about 5:55 am, sleepy, groggy and disoriented as usual. Jenn picks me up most days, except Thursdays when she teaches spinning and gets there a little earlier. Usually we walk in together and cute little Carl, the front desk worker, gives us some sort of "double-trouble" or "seeing double" comment. (Keep in mind that this man is quite old, and - I have to say it because it is an integral part of the story - is African-American.) Today as I handed him my swipey card, this conversation followed:
Carl: "I know what is different about you and your sister."
Me: "That she has shorter hair?"
Carl: "You're a little heavier."
Me: (shocked!) "Oh really?!"
Carl: "But its allll goood."
AAAAAK!

utterly horrifying. but coming from the cutest, nicest guy ever. really, he meant it in the nicest way. uh, maybe a sketchy-nice way...
Yeah, I kind of get the cold chills and almost gag when it plays over again in my mind. HEAVIER? I think that is about the worst word ever to describe fat. I think of someone who is heavy being 250+ pounds....
seriously sketchy. first i think, oh Carl, you are so funny. then i think, AHHH! Run away! Carl looks at you ass when you walk by!! Aaaaaargh!
yeah, 'heavy' was a bad word choice. he should have said: "you have the better ass and boobs."
I can't tell you how many times I've been "complimented" on my "big round ass". Ok I can, like 2 or 3, but that is waaaay too many when the persons in question did really think it was just an ok thing to point out. Uhhhh....thanks.
I am so sorry, Heidi. I feel your pain. Next time I see you I will tell you the infamous "ghetto booty" story. I do not have enough time to post. Its even worse than this one....
Oh dear, I hope he NEVER sees me. That is funny Amy.
i'm glad i don't have a twin...so cute old black men will never compare the size of my head or nose with theirs
Oh my gosh Amy, I'm totally dying at work right now. That...I don't know what to say. I'm speechless.
I've read stories that Tina Fey used to work in an inner-city Chicago YMCA and has had her fair share of...."interesting" comments made to her.
Hey! I weigh 250:(
It's totally a compliment Amy, just not well phrased...you're such a hottie!
