Small Town Talk...

Okay... you know you work in a small town when you have a conversation like this with the teller at the post office....

Deb: (standing at the counter getting a money order for work stuff.) Hi Jeanie
Jeanie: Didja get stitched yet ?
Deb: Oh, I'm already hitched (smiling)
Jeanie: No, I said STITCHED
Deb: Jaw on floor with NO words to even speak wondering HOW THE HELL DOES SHE KNOW ?

I'm still speechless....

Ah, the joys of living in a small town and everyone knowing your "business." I'll take my big town any day ... nobody has a clue what's going on with me (except those who I CHOOSE to make aware of things). Hope the shock has worn off!

Wow, I don't know that I've head a personal question QUITE like that one. You should come back with a really embarassing answer for the next person foolish enough to ask that question! I won't go into details...you could get very creative about the reasons!

I bet that took your breath away! Don't you wish you could think of a snappy come up in the moment? I never can.
