Dainty

My friend Jennifer told me last night that she thought I was dainty. Isn't that sweet? No really, she did. I really am. Well, kinda. I found myself inwardly chuckling my evil laugh and thinking, "YES, I have fooled her! Mwa, ha, ha, ha... She has perceived me as I hope to be perceived! She is under my spell, mwa, ha, ha, ha, ha!" I think what I actually said to her (with my evil eye) was "I am pleased with your perception." Maybe my hands were placed chest-high, with my fingers tapping (evilly), I can't remember. Then all of my friends laughed and told stories about me. Thwarted again. Curses!

I went to our church's cookie swap last night. It was a blast. If you missed it, then you missed out! We revealed secret pals, which was fun. Kim Poston was mine, and I was hers. She gave me stuff all year from the Candy Store in Leeds. Yummalicious. Can you say "Dark Chocolate-Covered Coffee Beans"? Can you also say "WIRED"? I had five cups of coffee, five glasses of water, and an embarrassing amount of cookies. And, yes, it was after 6:00PM. The guilt was overwelming as I brushed my teeth before bed. I've GOT to exercise this week.

Well, I need to get ready for church. Today is the Advent Candle of Bethlehem. Remember the Promise of a Savior!

Yes, dainty like an orchid...or are you petunia? I forget.

Kim said...

I am Orchid. Missy is Petunia. How could you possibly forget? We were so annoying about it. And weird.

Missy said...

I have seen the dainty every now and again but I have also seen some not so dainty. But I love when people think those things I as you know have been mistaken for a dancer and I think the only thing that held me back was the fact that I am such a big clutz and have sprained my ankle 8 times.

Thanks for the laugh, Kim! Your evil laugh made me laugh because I do that all the time, and then it made me want to find that clip from Friends where Phoebe tries to teach Joey how to do it. Good times.

Christmas treats are such a trap! I curse them (& love them).
