Oh, my. Lyra, I empathize completely. (Well, except for the proposal part. [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] ) I get these catcalls all the time. Except for the other day. I have a reeeeeaaallllyyyy bratty little brother. He made a HUGE mess of himself the other day at the park, so guess who had to walk him home (my mom didn't want him in the car. Not that I blame her.) I walked with him, and while I got stares, nobody wanted to come near me, not with that Gollum thing along. (I know it's way too early in the story, but I swear, he was acting like Gollum when Frodo and Sam put the hithlain rope on him.)
I went on a retreat this weekend, and what with going to and from the dorms, waiting tables (that was my job, I was a team member) and running errands for my sisters, I walked about eight miles. My feet hurt.
