Gone are the days when I will compliment a woman on how nice she looks on a given day, only to be made to feel guilty that I don't dish out that comment EVERY day. Nobody looks nice each and every day..you may have one or two work days when everything comes together (hair, makeup and outfit for women; fresh haircut, new outfit for men) and when that happens you absolutely KNOW you're going to get compliments. In fact its not a matter of if you're going to get complimented, but its more of a how-many-will-I-get-today situation. These are also the days when your spouse, girlfriend or boyfriend better notice how good you look, otherwise there will be hell to pay.

Unfortunately, there are more days when you simply look average to below average. Its not like you look like ugly or hideous, but you simply did not feel like taking the necessary time it takes to look notch. You are simply trying to get to work, do your best, and then leave. In fact, if you someone comes up to you and compliments you on days like this, you will give them this incredulous look that says, "Are you f**king kidding me, I look like sh*t!" but all that will come out of your mouth is a quiet thank you. This really isn't hard to figure out.

The only thing I can think of is that when I complimented my co-worker on how nice she looked today, she KNEW she looked good, but she also thought she looked good yesterday (NOPE), and was offended that I only paid my respects today. She overplayed her hand basically, which is why I got a "What was wrong with me yesterday?" question today...
