Guy: I saw you downtown the other day.
Me: Oh, yeah probably, I'm there a lot.
Guy: You were with a guy.
Me: Yeah, that's my husband.
Guy: You got married?! You didn't say anything.
Me: I've been married for a while, it's kind of old news.
Guy: But that one time I asked you if you had a boyfriend or girlfriend you said "no."
Me: Well I don't have a boyfriend. You asked me that in the middle of a busy day. The conversation didn't get further than that.
Guy: Or a girlfriend?
Me: Nope.
Guy: Sorry, I just feel a little mislead.

On Winking Etiquette
Me: Gah, I've developed this terrible habit of winking at people lately. I feel like it makes everything I say either dirty or condescending. Maybe both.
Anna G: YEAH ME TOO! The other day at work, I was talking about company phones with one of my bosses who is older and definitely pervy. Anyway, I told him: "Next month I'll be on my honeymoon in St. Lucia, and I WON'T be taking my Blackberry!" Then I like, gave him this ridiculous cartoon wink. I have no idea what he thought I was implying, I was just going with it.
