What little detail makes you different than those around you?

In other words - if any of us were to run into each other, how would we even know???

I've been told that my hair is so long that it isn't age appropriate. It IS very long. I keep it trimmed, and I don't have a very igh maintenance style, but there you go - it isn't a 42-year-old 'do.

So if you see someone running around that fits that description, it could just be devinmom...

How about you?

I used to have uber long hair too, until I started donating it to locks of love or pantene luxurious lengths. My hair is straight and dark, uncolored and unpermed,and grows fast. the first time I did it, I donated thirty inches, Last time was Christmas, I donated seventeen. The cut I had was a posh spice ish kinda really short in the back, longer around my chin, and it is growing in nicely. Other than that I have the same old haircut, just two years or so between each donation.
nothing special about me I can think of, other than the large hairy wart on my nose (just kidding)

Of course you will know me if we should meet in passing.

I will be the woman that you mistake for being a clerk at any business you are in. If I had a nickle for everytime I was asked "Do you work here?"

I will be the gal that you commiserate and joke with that the line you are standing in just does not seem to be going anywhere.

I will be the one that reminds you of your favorite sister in law or the friend that got you banned from chemistry class in high school.

I will be the passerby that makes you think "Where do I know her from?"

I get all of these reactions because I tend to be smiling 91% of the time. And I have been told that there is something about my eyes that invites people to talk me.

That was me, as well, for years. I french braided inside and outside plaits, rolled, bunned and fishtailed it pretty much every day. Once done, nothing else all day. Now I have a much shorter look, and it definitely is in style !

As for making me different, nothing really on the outside that people would notice......

I giggle/laugh a LOT. So if you see someone laughing for no apparent reason, hey it's me!

I hate to say this, but, I guess big boobs. I'm petite and big chested and it seems to draw people's eyes to me. It can at times be a little unsettling.....you feel like you have a horn in the middle of your forehead. But, I guess it could be worse, huh???

Oh, and I have a very sparkly smile.

No jewelry (except earrings and wedding band), small nose, and big smile. I smile a lot.

You're not the only one who has this problem. I can be in Target or KMart wearing a tye-dyed Grateful Dead t-shirt (which is normally what I'm wearing in the summer), and people will come up to me and ask if I work there . DH claims it's from all my years working in retail.

There's not really too much about me that stands out, not that I try to blend in, otherwise I would be wearing bright tye-dyed shirts. The only that's different about me is my personality. DH and I both have to be the weirdest people I've ever met . Well, other than the late Jerry Garcia that is. My cousins and I were chatting with him once after a concert in the late 80's and he told me it was the call of the weird, that I instinctively migrate towards weird people and weird things. I guess that explains why I'm married to my DH .

That's weird. People often mistake me for an employee too. Other than that, I think I'm rather plain. I dress conservatively. With that being said, I've had many people call me a hippie. I'm a vegetarian, have my nose pierced, and consider myself a free-thinker. I guess that makes me a hippie.

I'm not sure why, but I get that all the time too.


Apparently I'm a very ordinary looking person or have very common features (classic beauty ), because I've been mistaken many times for someone else. I've even had people walk right up to me, face-to-face, and start talking to me like they know me.

So.... If you wanted to spot me, you'd have to look at my palm. I have a simian crease in my right palm. A simian crease, or simian line, is when the "head line" and "heart line" run together making one horizontal line on your palm, instead of 2. I discovered it in highschool when I checked out a book on palmistry from the library. I think the name of the book was 'The Soothsayers Guide to Palmistry and Tea Leaf Reading'. (No, I don't read palms.) In the book it said something to the effect of..... a person with a simian crease is either an evil criminal type -OR- the complete opposite. Since I'm not an evil criminal, I guess that makes me an angel. I've looked at a lot of people's palms since then (especially in my young, partying years LOL) to see who else had one, and I've only met 1 other person who did. It was just over 6yrs ago and she was about my age. She had never noticed that one of her palms was different than the other until I'd pointed it out to her.
