lol My mother always says "well, at least it is pretty here..."

It is, indeed. I hope to retire to Tennessee, W. Va., or Kentucky one day.

Are you very hardcore in your vintage, Miss Brill? I only just realised I haven't the foggiest idea what you look like or how you dress. I can only think that vintage must really shake them up down there. When I last passed through, I stopped on a whim at a drive-in movie somewhere out in the middle of nowhere. The kids were the only ones who talked to me, mostly to ask questions about my car, but the grown-ups dealt with me as if I were slightly senile - Polite, but a little slow and loud in speaking, as if they thought I didn't speak English. Very strange.

I don't think anyone knows what she looks like. ;)

No, I mostly wear vintage-inspired clothes with vintage accessories.

Thank you for the compliment.

Lo and I play around like that IRL. She likes to be the center of attention.

I know for a fact though she gets more dates than I do. But she'd probably tell you otherwise. ;)

So you're not so much without company, as you are without the right company? :p

I don't know much, but my therapist once said to me (I had a loose screw once, but it's tightened down now :D ), "If you met some nice girl with ordinary hair, who dressed conservatively, and who didn't immediately seem far-out or arty, would you really give her the time of day?" I realised that up until then I probably wouldn't have, so I tried to switch off my default radar, and I met Maureen.

On the surface, she seemed more "normal" than anyone I'd ever dated, but when I scratched the surface, I found all kinds of things just waiting to come out - Vintage-love, swing dancing, the Goth Gene, and a lot more - that I would never have guessed were lurking under that girl-next-door exterior.

I don't know how slim the pickin's are out there, though. What kinds of dates does Miss Haze get? Are they chaps you'd date? Are they keepers?

I was ready for everything but the slow/loud thing. I don't know what that was. The picture was nice, though. And the chili-cheese dog was good.

I hate to sound declass?©, but I'd kill for some White Castle over here. Or a bowl of real gumbo.

*spontaneously grows long white beard*

Tell me truly - Do you ladies ever get tired of all the courtly praise you're slathered with on FL? I've rolled my eyes more than once while reading the posts...

BTW, just saw your first photo with the ladies, Miss Dahlia. Dig your glasses. BIG change in look - I wouldn't have recognised you!

Please praise me till the cows come home. It boosts my already gigantic ego. lol

Oh you know what they say...boy don't make passes at girls who wear glasses. ;) I need them to see but if they appear in photos or not depends on how vain I'm feeling that day.

If you were to look over my posts, you'd discover that I'm pretty sparing with that kind of thing. My feeling is that ladies hear that kind of twaddle so much that eventually it doesn't mean anything. Besides, my own gigantic ego refuses to let me become part of a chorus. :rolleyes:

MY praise is more collectible,

Oh I thought it was because you were in love with Miss Lolita Haze. ;)
