I wish I could have taken a picture but please imagine how funny this was!
Here's what happened. We were enjoying a burger at a 50s style diner (more to come!) that had bar-style seating. This woman sat next to us and was very friendly. She's an LA local and started telling us all about her morning that she spent in Hollywood taking pictures of all of the Oscars red-carpet set-up. An annual tradition for Kathleen, she does it all the time. She loves the red carpet, loves the excitement, spots famous people along the soon-to-be all eyes on Hollywood affair.
As she digs through her purse to find her camera to show us some of her shots, she pulls out this smile on a stick. And she says, "Here's my portable smile, see." Puts this to her face, gets a laugh out of us, and continues to look for her camera. This 50+ year old woman carries a portable smile in her purse and pulls it out like it's no big deal. It belongs in her fancy purse! "Clearly," she says, "I don't need other people to have a good time."
Yes, mam. I will give you that. If you carry a smile on a stick in your purse, you surely don't need anyone else to create fun for you. Thanks for sharing your smile with us - and bringing us a good laugh. Continue to spread good cheer!
Amazing!
