Don't hate me because I'm beautiful

Man, my head is spinning! You see, Sunday I had a weird experience. Jessie Iverson, who is a super fabuloso "middle aged" lady at my church, and I were talking on Sunday, and she just started going on and on about how beautiful I am. She even started detailing; my skin, my hair (which I told her was out of a bottle, and she said, "it's still beautiful and someday it'll be it's natural color and it'll be beautiful then too."), my eyes (can't argue about that one. I think my eyes are my best feature), my figure, etc. I told her she needs an eye exam and tried to drop it, but she just kept on! It was insanity. So I told her, "Oh, yeah, tell that to all the single guys who AREN'T asking me out!" She said, "OK, I will, the next single guy I meet, I'm gonna tell him about you!" Yikes. This other girl that was nearby said, "Yeah, my sister has the same problem. She's so pretty guys are afraid to approach her." That, of course, implies that that is my problem. Hello ego boost.
Then, late last night, I signed up for My Space. Check me out: http://www.myspace.com/margie_vi
Then today when I came home for lunch, there were messages from 3 guys (and only one of them was Cainnum!), one was a Nigerian man telling me I'm "too beatiful, reely. too cute." It goes on in that vein, and another from a cute 22 year old, wanting to chat with an older woman. Again with the kids. And Cainnum went on about how beautiful I am, too! Too sweet! I also got a friend invite from a cute firefighter who's married, but apparently "loves women. who know what might happen." Ick.

Craziness. The world is topsy turvey. I know I shouldn't validate myself through others, but I must say, I'm feeling pretty good about me right now. Seems like it's about time for me to get fired or hit by a comet or something. :)

I've been trying to tell you that I think your pretty for years, but you never believe me! Now maybe finally you will! I mean you looked good before, but with your new slimmed-down figure you're a freak'n hotty! :D

shut it you. :) I see what I look like in pictures and the mirror. I must be better in real life or something.

Yeah, well I've only ever seen maybe two or three pictures of myself that I thought I looked good in, but people still seem to think I'm cute...so maybe photos are crap. :)
