Walking back to class with the girl who thinks I have five husbands (8 years old at the time). There is quite a breeze, and she is a little obsessed with my hair and me having it out instead of always pulled back. With my hair out, the breeze causes the windswept look, and I hear the following:
Girl: Ooh, you look like a movie star... You know, you should bring your favourite husband here for a romantic evening...
Me: ...I have a favourite husband?
Girl: Mm, Tim.... Light some candles, cook his favourite meal... You'd be wearing a pretty dress... [I admit - I zoned out a bit for the description of what I was wearing - sorry. But I came right back when I heard the next bit] ... And he'd have his dark curly hair blowing in the breeze, his shirt partly unbuttoned -
Me: What?! How old are you??? Does your mother know what you've been watching?
At least there's a bit of romance in her imaginary version of my life. Nevermind the whole idea of bringing a husband for a date to school!
