Me:  I am going to Sonic.  I am in desperate NEED of a diet Coke.  J, would you like a slushy?
J: Yes, yes, yes!!!
Me:  What flavor?
J:  Strawberry or cherry.
Me:  Okay...
J:  Or watermelon.
Me:  I can't handle all of those options.  Why don't you just pick a flavor?
J:  Oh.  Okay.  Grape!
Me:  ?????
Upon returning with the "goods"...
J:  Is this red one my strawberry slushy, Mommy?
Me: ?!?!?  You ordered grape.  That is for your brother.
J:  Oh yeah.  Grape.  Thanks!
On a completely unrelated note...I am in a desperate need of a haircut...and WAY too busy to fix my hair these days.  So yesterday, I got out the "dippity do" and slicked it back into a small ponytail at the nape of my neck.  Not flattering.  I look like a middle-aged spinster school teacher.  
So would someone please tell me WHY IN THE WORLD THREE...three, people...family members would tell me yesterday how nice I looked?  And there wasn't a TRACE of sarcasm in their voices--I know--I have a sarcasm radar.
Is it because I actually brushed my hair?

Ha! Maybe they like the middle-age spinster look?? What a savings you will have from not needing all those hair appointments.
