I went to Ritz Camera store today to purchase a case for my point-and-shoot camera. There were girls in their 20s working at the store. I was my drab self except for diamond stud earrings, highlighted hair (full-weave) women's SAS low heel sandals that show-off my pretty toes that have a pink and white Frence Pedicure. I was also wearing Vera Wang "Princess" which is a really feminine scent. Several men came into the store and got the normal "Can I help you sir". I though "oh-no, I hate being called sir. I don't know really what I want to be called but I don't like "sir". One of the girls came over to me and said "Can I help you Sweetie?" I felt really good when I hears this and I told her that I wanted to look at camera cases. She proceeded to show me cases and I found one that fit my camera. We were making small talk and she said that she loved my French Pedicure. (this is not the first time that I have received comments on my pedicures and nail polish) She slipped off her flat heel pump and showed me her toes that also had a French Pedicure. She had two cute little flower designs on each big toe and she let me hold her foot to look at the design. We talked about nail designs, nail salons and toenail polish for about five minutes. At the end of the conversation she said that she really enjoyed talking to me and that I should stop by the next time I am at the shopping center. After leaving, I thought about what had just happenned. I was dressed in drab and she treated me like a girl. The experience was wonderful. Somehow she knew to relate to me as a girl. It is communication that is totally on a different level than the way a girl would communicate with a man. I felt so relaxed and so ultra-girly after that experience.
