girls *headshake*
once a month we have happy hour after work. we didn't in february, though, because angie and i are the ringleaders of it (slightly ironic as i don't drink in public and she doesn't drink at all) and she wasn't able to attend. so since it had been so long since we had gone out, we both got cute for it, wearing cute clothes and doing our hair and she fancified her make-up.
the other people who we always hound to come with us (and who basically always do) are thing 5 and game of thrones sword guy (from now on known as gotsg). they said they were coming today. unfortunately, however, gotsg ended up having to pick up his brother who was having car troubles. before he left, though, he came into our room to apologize for not being able to go. seeing how dolled up angie was with her make-up and all, he commented that she was looking good today.
to which my brain, because i'm a girl, went, 'uh! i look cute, too!'
at which point he must've heard my brain, because he turned to me a second later and said, 'and you, *tck* always - lookin' [pointing from his eyes to me], you know what i mean?' at which point angie was probably thinking 'uh! i always look cute, too!' but then he followed all that by, 'can't just compliment one.'
i didn't actually ask angie how she felt about her being 'today' and me being 'always, ' but it was probably about the same as i did being the afterthought and the 'can't just compliment one.' i'm going to ignore the rest, though, and just go with the 'always' and be proud of him for knowing that complimenting just one girl can hurt feelings and/or start a war. :)

*Headshake* indeed. I am all too familiar with this. At least the first part where you thought "Uh!" Not sure I would've carried it on to the second part where you thought she might also think the same. So, good on ya. Or good on God. And good on Sword Guy.
Where do you find these obscure videos?? But how nice of that man to sing him that song. Of course, I'd find it very hard to take anyone seriously if they sang to me, but that's beside the point. Although he'd probably get in trouble nowadays for that pat he gave at the end. Or at least looked suspiciously at by onlookers.
oh, i've seen that movie several times. and i must give credit to hobsis for finding it, cuz i tried looking for it under everything she looked under, but she found it by clicking on a side-thingy from something else.
Is the name of the movie "The Ugly Duckling"? Or is that just that song?
today i told thing 5 this story. "psh - i never get any of that." poor boys.
sorry - i missed your last comment. it's 'hans christian andersen' and it includes a few of his stories put to song.
and a boring ballet of 'the little mermaid,' because musicals of that time period had to include a boring ballet scene
Interesting. Never heard of it.
