I was walking through the mall yesterday (I was getting my hair cut) and this woman walked up to me - she was standing near a booth - well - first of all - I'm not used to being in the mall - and second of all - I'm not a jerk - if someone requests my attention - I'm not going to blow them off -
She was selling skin lotion - she said, "May I see your hands" - and i did of course - she went . oh...you have really calloused hands...i said - Yah - well I'm a rock climber, I need these....she goes....oh ok...well, are there any females on your christmas list - I go - yah, they're climbers too... and smile suggestively... and I go on to explain that I live in a tent and that I rock climb full time (and shoot photos.)
She then got another lotion (which was derived from the Dead Sea - lots of minerals and so forth) - and used it to clean my forearm - she said that my face was very dirty and that I needed to clean out the pores - I go - umm...I'm really sorry, but I'm not going to buy anything - she goes - oh no problem, thank you for my time....
Its funny - if I was at all vain or infact, knew any vain girls - she probably would have had the sale...but well....I think getting any of my female friends skin lotion would have been in insult...
Sooo the future part - well last night at the gym (i did the yellow and orange problem!! yaya) - I was thinking - maybe I should spend a season working at a climbing gym - that would be cool - and I'd probably get strong? I think I'd make a good climbing coach/route setter right? I'm sorta responsible?
