Ever had someone compliment you in a nice way but it was such a bizarre occurance that you were more baffled than flattered? Today I went to my mom's chiropractor (I've been to this chiropractor once before and yes, I still think she's a nut). She was starting the exam and going over my chart while small talking me.

"Did you change your hair color?"
"No, you're probably thinking of my sister. She has darker hair than I do."
"Ooohhh. Well...you just sparkle!"

Sparkle? What? Considering I didn't feel my best today it was a nice thing to hear but I was mostly weirded out at the terminology (and the personality behind it) for it to really sink in. I'll probably start using that compliment on random people now.

The lady is tiny, like short and yet she seems like she could take down and beat up anybody who crossed her. She has shoulder length curly (permed?) hair, a masculine face, and was wearing a pink, rose-embroidered matching outfit consisting of a button-down shirt and capri pants. She was barefoot. I can't quite put my finger on what is so strange about her. She's definitely nice, overly friendly, and just...I don't know. At one point she said, "Aren't you just precious?" Perhaps its her masculinity poured into pink linen topped with the curly hair and surrounded by a chatter of disarming sweet talk. How does my mom stand this lady?

So. Continuing in my personality quirk of becoming briefly obsessed with things before disgustedly tossing them aside, I managed to get to level 88 93 in this game. I don't think I can stand to play it anymore but my multi-tasking mind nearly requires three activities at once when I'm on the computer. Still, I should give my mouse-hand a break anyway.

Do you think crayon drawings will melt in the mail? I hope not.
