    the face of an angel

    June 8th, 2007

    yes, i know - i’m naive and innocent and that’s why i have the face of an angel. i have a couple of instances to back this up, just in case you don’t believe me.

    1. when i arrived at the airport for my flight to new york, there was increased security and they were quizzing everyone as to when they had packed there cases and whether there were any electrical items inside. understably the lady asking the questions was very sombre and sensible and really didn’t know what she was letting herself in for when she came to ask me the questions - poor thing! having started flapping my arms around for a few minutes, i managed to muster “oooh, some straightners, um…. oohhh…..aaahh….it’s like a quiz” - she gave in and moved to the next person in line.

    2. at the other end all of my colleagues were quizzed by customs, so i prepared myself in order to not have a similar incident to earlier in the day - only to be granted access without any questions - they could obviously tell it wasn’t worth their while :)
    3. having finally unpacked and located the hotel bar, i sat down to enjoy my first glass of wine. before you know it, i’ve knocked the glass over and it’s smashed into a million pieces. as a waitress approached, i hung my head in shame. she bent down and whispered in my ear “normally you break it, you pay for it, but you’ve got a pretty face, so i’ll get you another glass” god, i love looking like an angel!!! if only people knew me ;)

    Halo

      Hey Sandy! Great to hear from you. New York was great thanks, although I didn’t fit in half as much shopping as I would have liked to. I’m back in New York, so I’m saving myself until then :D
