Joanna Gaines Quote
Chip asked me about New York and what I wanted to do, and how long my dad had owned the shop, and what it was I loved about Waco. He asked about my sisters and my family in general, and what I’d done at Baylor, and if I’d known a few communications majors he’d run around with at school. (I told y’all he was chatty!) Somehow none of these questions seemed intrusive or strange to me at the time, which is funny, because thinking back I find them particularly telling.At the time, it was just like talking with an old friend.John finally stood up, and this baseball-cap-wearing customer that John had introduced as Chip followed. Well, nice talking to you, he said.Nice talking to you too, I replied, and that was it. I went back inside. The guys in the shop wanted to know what I thought about Hot John, and I just laughed. Sorry, guys, I don’t think it’s gonna work out.
