This is my favorite photobooth portrait.
It tells quite a story.
| He said he liked my eyes.
It was nearly the first thing he said. He said “Hello, aren’t you Nelda? I like your eyes.”
He said he liked my eyes.
I’ll give him one of these pictures. I wonder, is that too forward? I’ll give him one anyway. I can’t be shy all my life. Yes I can.
What’ll I write on the back? My name. I’ll say, “from Nelda.” OR how about “Your Friend, Nelda”. No no, he didn’t say I was a friend.
He said he liked my eyes.
I’ll put, “To Jory from Nelda.” That isn’t too much is it?
I wonder if he has a girlfriend.
I’m not pretty, I wonder why he said “I like your eyes.”
He said he liked my eyes.

That light scares me. Can I hold Dolly now?

 Charlene’s new glasses made her look taller. “It’s like I am seeing for the first time,” she exclaimed.
Her boyfriend Denny was a bit concerned about that. |  |  Suddenly it dawned on Freeda why her brother always claims to be an only child. Why does no one ever see the two of them together? |  Poncho D. Button always insisted that in life’s work, he was only a temp. |
 Helga used to play center for the Chiefs. |  I can play but I won't do the dance. |  I saw that. |  Hello, Microsoft Help Line. May I please to be helping you, this fine morning or afternoon as your case may to be? |
