Every morning, my route to my office from the bus involves walking through the lobby of another building on campus. This morning, as I was trundling through, one of the receptionists (a tall, striking young lady who looked like she could be Tyra Bank's sister) stopped me.
"Girl, I see you every day, and I just have to tell you you have the best style I've ever seen! It looks good on you - you're like a modern Mary Poppins! Work it!"
And then she snapped her fingers in the air. No, I'm not kidding. Full-on finger snap in the air. I don't think I'd ever seen that done in a non-ironic fashion.
I smiled, said "Thank you very much!", and walked to my building, trying not to giggle. But it was a nice way to start my work day.
