It must be something about me...

If you've read my blogs for a while, you'll remember that people like to say random, weird, and sometimes not so kind things to me! Here's some to jog your memory...
Here & Here

Well I've been comment free for a while now and I was thinking maybe it was just another symptom of pregnancy for me! That is until a few weeks ago...

I've recently been going lap swimming with a good friend of mine once a week at a local gym. We happen to go Thursday mornings @ 8 am, during the aquasizers class. We enjoy watching the cute old ladies dancing to the oldies in the pool; I imagine it will be me some day too. Well in the locker room after class one of the ladies was chatting with me about the importance of exercise, blah blah. So as small talk goes, I commented on exercising to lose that baby weight! I shouldn't have...
Me: Yes, exercise is really helpful to lose that baby weight (or something!!).
Lady: Oh, let me see your stomach!! (MIND YOU, I am NAKED at this point.) She walks over to me and comes in close for a good look.
Lady: OH Honey! You do not have anything to worry about, you look great!
Me: Thanks....

(great compliment... LITTLE awkward!!)

Then, 2 weeks later, I ran into the same little lady again...of course, I too was naked again. :) Although in the process of dressing...
Lady: Oh, you have those panties!!! (seriously, just plain low rise briefs!) I just don't know how you get them to stay up! Let me see those!! She walks over to me (MIND YOU, they are the ONLY article of clothing I have on), proceeds to grab the waistband of my undies and tug on them to see how they stay up! WHHHHAAAT!
Me: Well, I don't know, they just stay up for me....

Oy... We'll see what this week brings!

I laughed out loud at this one...because I've been near these women at the gym and it does get a little strange sometimes. :)
