I was basically

with one of our hotel employees when I was a teen. She was like that also. I can count on one hand the number of women I've met like that in my life though. Another one was a leggy blonde that lived next door to my cousins' house. I used to spend summers there as a kid. Even back then she didn't fit any of the blonde stereotypes (mainly she was intelligent). I saw her for the first time in 15 years at a wedding not too long ago and i swear to god her husband (~50yo doctor) is the luckiest mofo in the world. She had aged absolutely beautifully (even after 3 kids bc they are very active as a couple) and she still had the most pleasant and disarming way about her, despite being extremely beautiful. If SF is where dreams go to die, she kept mine alive. I swore then and there that I wouldn't settle for anything less.
