02.01.2008 :: 32. Beautiful on the inside

Can fruit be eye candy? It's certainly candy for the mouth!
~~
By the time the 2145th* person told me I looked "terrible" today, I was wondering what the fuss was all about. I went to the ladies room and the delightful fun house mirror with blaring fluorescent lighting bordering on xray beams showed me that they most definitely were correct. I did look terrible. Puffy eyes and cheeks, bloodshot eyes, pale and yet blotchy red however the hell that could happen. I was a real delight on the eyes today! Good thing I felt good! Which was a small consolation to those who had to endure looking at me all day long.
This is why Mr. Blood Orange up there is quite symbolic of my eyes today.

*exaggeration, of course. It was only 1253.
Or it felt like it.

Gorgeous fruit and I'm sure it tastes as good as it looks. Phooey on those 1253 peoples.

I didn't have a very pretty day today either. There's always tomorrow. :-)

Have you ever seen that comedy routine where the person is talking about how someone will say, "OhMYGOD, THIS STINKS, here, SMELL!" That's sort of along the same lines of people telling you look like CRAP all day. Thanks, people, that's why I LOVE you. Sheesh.
Tell them if they had to look at THEM all day, THEY'D look AWFUL TOO.

You looked almost as HOT as Norma from my chair! :)

You are always beautiful to me.

I think it is and I'm not much for citrus.
If you looked that bad, someone from management would have sent you home. ♥

Yummy. And I doubt you looked that bad. I mean, who would tell you that anyway? Geesh. Make your day or what?

You're getting pretty good at the whole photography thang, girlie. I can almost smell that orange!
Whenever I go into the office without putting makeup on, I wind up having to say at least 10 times that day, "No, I feel fine..."
