Two comments that I received recently that amused me...
That my newly pinkified hair 'looks like velvet'.
I really liked this because aside from the fact that I like my hair being compared to something as tactile as velvet (i am big on touching things) it is true because my intentionally uneven bleaching technique leaves my hair a mix of slightly darker and lighter pinks that makes it have depth and look velvety.
The other was in reference to the fact that photos of me usually don't look like me. I was told "Well, you are just more of a three-dimensional girl, animated and stuff."

I went to the hospital today to deliver some office supplies.

To avoid the stairs since we had a handtruck, we cut through the research building, a creepy place with emergency eyewash stations and chemical showers intermitently in the hallways.
(GOD how much I want to pull that handle!!!!!!!!!)
Every door is marked 'biohazard' or 'danger, chemicals' (and half of these doors just standing open) .
I wished I had my camera to take a photo of the door marked 'biohazard' standing partially open to show rows of test tubes in holders right inside the door, and a small table right outside it with a Dunkin Donuts box on top. (less than a foot away from the test tubes, with a partially open door in between)mmmmm.......donuts and biohazards perfect together.
So after walking around what seemed to be an interminible maze of hallways we crossed through a doorway marked 'no entrance' and entered the hospital proper. We went through several more 'authorized personnel only' doorways , and down a few halls and than we arrived at the lab with the delivery. We enter the lab which is also marked 'keep out : authorized personnel only' and there is a desk right inside the door with test tubes full of what appears to be blood just lying all over the desk no test tube holder even which amused me because a friend of mine had test tube shot glasses complete with a little holder and I always wanted them. (There was a sign outside the door letting you know what chemicals they were using today but since i haven't had chem since 8th grade, it meant nothing to me.)
So we deliver and then start our journey back through the maze.
We turn a corner and there is a man signing some papers and a gurney, covered in a red velvet blanket with what appeared to be a corpse underneath. (I believe someone once told me that funeral homes use velvet blankets 'for discretion' when picking up bodies {making fun of me because i sleep with a velvet blanket}) a rather tiny ( maybe adult height, but not adult weight) corpse-like shape and just when I was asking myself 'Is this for real?' the guy handed the clipboard back and looked over at us with a bit of a smirk that made me think that he was enjoying my look of shock which makes me think it was a corpse.
Very creepy.
Do you know what we were delivering to the lab?

Do you know what else is scary?

So how are you all doing?
And what are your opinions on age differences in relationships? What is reasonable and what is creepy or does it depend on the individuals?
