Are really something. I don't know what has happened the past 3 days, but there's something in the air...
Saturday night on my way home I felt someone walking closely behind me, like in my personal space in the dark, so I quickly turned around and this guy hurries past me and nods. I thought "Phew. Good. He's gone" Then he stops, turns around, and starts speaking to me in Czech - trying to walk along with me and talk. Now my Czech isn't the most fluent, but I knew enough to make out what he was insinuating and let me just say "You've got to be kidding me?!?"
Sunday afternoon I was in a really great mood - walking down the sidewalk, enjoying the sunshine and listening to some good tunes. It was one of those moments when you can't help but smiling at people you see because life is good and God is good and yeah, you're happy. I should have known, though, that there's a reason why people don't smile here often ...
I smiled at this guy walking by - not thinking anything of it and just enjoying the outdoors. But this guy chased me down the street: "You have a beautiful smile. Really - it changes the weather" And at first I thought, "Maybe it really does cheer people up. Cool!" Then the guy proceeds to hand me his business card and say "If you ever want to grab coffee and make your girlfriend or boyfriend jealous, just let me know" (he is a professor of Economics at Charles University.... and little did he know I remembered my roommate Hannah telling me the EXACT same story months ago! - smile comments and all. Smooth, boy. Smooth)
I think the best, though, was Monday night - I was crossing the street with my roommates on our way home when this guy stops, looks me in the eyes and says one of the most charming things I think I've ever heard:
"You want sex?"
:P
