Yesteday in the Home Organization section at Lowe's, there was a tiny Latino man with a cart that needed to get past me and my cart. We smiled and manuvered past the obstacles in the aisle. Then he decided what he needed was on the other side of me - again the cart dance with smiling and nodding.
On his way out, he leaned over and said in a conspiratal whisper: You have cute legs.
My surprised and loud response: These ole things?
He shook his head, put his finger to his lips, closed his eyes, and shhh'd me! I didnt know what to make of that and so said nothing. Perhaps my mouth was slightly agape - I'm not sure. I was still looking in the direction where he and his cart rolled around the corner, only to see his head reappear around the end cap and repeat the whole shhhhing gesture. Then he winked and disappeared.
It was the most comical, ridiculous exchange. But I must admit, I was truly flattered. Several times I caught myself smiling and perhaps believing the biking/treadmill routine was finally paying off.
But shhhh! dont tell anyone. It's a secret that only the mysterious little man and I share.
