Maybe try some extreme make-up like they do in those glamorous high fashion photos. Ok well thank you so much, doll! I’ll give you a call later. Well now I’ve got to go mingle. Later, love!”
“Ok later Erik.” Wow so that was a whirlwind of confusion. I’m not quite sure of what I got myself into. But hey, at least I know what this crazy guy looks like.
