    Font - Dressed inappropriately for a job I don't have XL Last weekend, it was very warm for this part of the country. I was wearing a tank top and some jean shorts, so I had a lot of skin showing. Nothing indecent, though, just bare arms and legs, and I might have had some cleavage showing.

    Font - Dave looks at me, then as if a light bulb went off in his head, takes his walkie talkie and calls for someone nemed Linda to report to whatever aisle we were on. The lady is still berating him for what I'm wearing (again, nothing wrong with it, just showing a lot of skin for it being such a hot day) when Linda comes into the aisle. I was shocked, she looked exactly like me when I was back in high school. It was like looking 10 years back in time, and I'm sure for her,

    Font - she got a glimpse of what she would look like 10 years from now. Linda walks up to us, asking what's up, and the lady quietly says, "My mistake" and starts to walk back down the aisle, but she has to get a last jab in, so she turns around and tells me, "Do you actually go in public like that? That's just wrong, tempting men with your nearly body." )I'm married, by the way, the only man I have to tempt is my husband and that's not hard to do. Dave had me and Linda pose together for a pictu
