She's just irresistable to strangers. Ha! Just kidding.I went to a bakery in the next town over and there was an old man in the line in front of me chatting like crazy to the person behind the counter. I was holding Addie so when he turned around he said to her:
Well hello little girl! You are a cutie! Why don't you pick out a treat. I'll buy it for you.
I said: Oh, no. It's okay. She doesn't need anything. (I had gone there to buy treats.)
Old man: No really. Ask her (pointing to the lady behind the counter).
Lady: Yeah, if there are ever any kids in here when he's here, he buys them all treats.
Realizing that he wasn't going to take "no" for an answer I said: Okay, maybe that pink frosted cookie there. Thank you. That's very nice of you.
Old man: So where do you live?
I told him and he said: So you're one of the people who comes through my town are you? What color is your car so I can throw rocks at you as you drive by?
He he. Okay. Bye old man.
Extreme kindness and profuse hostility all in under 5 minutes.

That is Hilarious. Buying treats and throwing rocks all in one trip, veeerrrryy interesting. =)
AAHHH! That's my worst fear- telling THEM where I'm from. I know they hate me every time my kids use THEIR pool at the Legacy Center and add to the crowdation, or I get through the green light on Main Street and THEY don't. I would have cried! Thanks for the warning. :)
Weirdo! Where were you anyway--does it start with an "L"?? Crazy people.
Now that's funny. I would've totally got along with him.
yikes....you can never be sure about strangers these days.
So did he end up buying the cookie? I would have taken it and ran!
Some times people can be so hard to read. Its hard, you dont want to be rude and then he is rude to you. [Go figure].
