LOL! Thanks Sarai. Actually, I just want to go into the store and thank him for being such an as*hole. And of course, comment on the fact that he’s still there, while I chased my dream…lol. I’m *SO* petty!

LOL, love the story of the impressive young man who wanted you specifically to develop his photos.

Love even more the wonderful man who helped you make your dreams come true.

Wish you continued success.

Thanks, gals! I admit that I’ve REALLY wanted to look that manager up since making the USA Today list. Petty, I know. lol. As for the photos of nekked middle-aged men…well, maybe someday I’ll blog about some of the things I’ve seen! lol.

I once had a nice looking young man walk into the store (he’d been in before), come up to the counter and hand me a roll of film. He asked specifically for me to develop and print his pix. When I so, I discovered the entire roll was of him naked in the forest. I’ll just say that he was impressive and leave it at that. When he came back in an hour, I handed him the envelope and he asked if I saw the photos. I said that I had, since he’d asked me to develop them. Then, he smiled and said, “So, how about coffee?”

Of course, I said yes. lol. We never did make it out on a date though. As lovely as he was to look at, he was somewhat vacant and not much for conversation. Shortly after that I met my Steve who is not only lovely, but a conversationalist as well. ;-)

Yay Kate! So glad you chased your dream, because readers like me get to enjoy the results of that :)

Oh, and “Even the photos pudgy middle-aged men took of themselves naked couldn’t cheer me up.” LOL!
