I modeled clothing for a local department store for their newspaper ads and on a couple of occasions they asked me to model SOCKS. <BR/><BR/>See? I told you it wasn't really that interesting. Not like the fetish lady at all... (unless a guy really likes SOCKS, that is!)

Most of the time , i am informed not to speak to anyone other than the customer if i need to call to talk to them about a doll they may have had me order. <BR/>Well , i made a bad mistake one day and called a house, a man answered so I asked could i speak to my customer. The man told me that she wasn't home did i want to leave a message. I told him yes could he tell her that I was from xyz doll shop and that her doll had come in . Well i dont know why i did that the next thing i knew he said to you SO YOUR THE ONE Selling my wife all them dolls. <BR/>Needless to say i didnt try to reach her by phone again. <BR/><BR/>thanks again Christie for a great story.Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01998245231910797947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-3012613077758385882007-09-25T22:36:00.000-05:002007-09-25T22:36:00.000-05:00LOL Christie - your poor husband!
