we were having a bit of an afternoon stroll around the park, when a kindly older gentleman struck up a conversation with Selma; and we chatted it up about redheads
me: "yeah, I have three of them, can you believe it?"
kindly older gentleman: "in the pueblo that I grew up in, there was a whole family of redheads!"
me: "that must have been one good looking family"
. . . and the conversation continued on for a bit like that . . . and then he said it - - "and they don't have freckles!"
so I did my part - - "well, I have freckles, so you never know . . ."
and then he said - - "noooooo . . . you don't have freckles . . . you may have some zits, but you don't have freckles . . ."
well now, that explains it all.
and I'm taking it as a compliment.
on a completely unrelated note, I'm off to wash my face.

oh, so funny. Why don't people think before they speak? I for one happy to like freckles. My sister always had freckles which she never liked but I did. Anyways, I agree with Kasey about you being adorable and beautiful with your freckles.
Um... I don't get it. You clearly have freckles! I wonder why there is such a national aversion to freckles and I wonder what "the freckled kind" looks like?
Too funny!
sort of.
:)
hahahahahahaha
And now I'M off to wash MY face.
Very Funny...It's good to know that zits are much better than freckles...where do age spots fit in?
That is too funny! Ha ha! What a random comment to say to someone! Ahh... so funny!
