And getting my hair cut, and I had a lot of compliments..people are just too nice. I felt pretty, even though I'm not really.

Believe it or not, this is why I am particular about who I compliment. I don't want to compliment someone and then have them turn around and throw it in the can because they're insecure or lack self-esteem.

Today, I saw a Bendy Bus attempting a 3 point turn in the regular width street. Needless to say, it took a very long time!

Dropping a dime at the bookstore when I was there with my husband (grabbing coffee, which itself makes me smile). He joked to the cashier that I "dropped the dime"... I handed it to him and then told him I was just giving him more than my two cents worth.

exactly! We don't get asterix and obelix over here, but for some reason I came across a comic book once when I was little and got hooked on them. BTW is it O-belix or AH-belix? The answer could solve a 30 year old fight if I could ever find the girl I had the fight with.

You're getting compliments because people really think you're pretty. You ARE pretty. If I find you being down on yourself again you will be in grave danger of some serious fish induced injuries. :devil:

Thanks evo :biggrin: Oh no, I really don't want the wrath of fish upon me!

It's not that I'm insecure, but I don't want to be known as one of those girls that know they are pretty and throw it in your face. I always seem to get giddy when I get a nice compliment. Plus, I get a real red face! So, I would rather deny it, so I don't look so needy or something...

You are pathetic! :smile:

I been trying to learn how to reply when I receive a complement/someone thanks me etc. I usually try not to get into these situations. But most people know that ...

That's what you think about at the end of the day? Like, think about good things.

Both happened at ~ 11:30 PM yesterday. I slept and forgot .. and then came another good day!

It was an ordinary day until I started thinking about things making it a good day. :biggrin:
