To Be(lieve) or Not to Be(lieve)

Irv, your friendly neighborhood girl scout cookie man, was back today. This time, I got fair warning that he was coming from Andrea.

me: Did you bring me cookies?
Irv: No, no cookies today.

pause as he signs out his badge

Irv: You have the most beautiful eyes.
me (turning bright red on cue): Thank you.
Irv: How often do people tell you that?
me: I've never heard it before.
Irv: They're all blind.

And off he went, leaving me cautiously happy. On one hand, he paid me a lovely compliment. On the other hand, given his record, I'm not sure if he meant it sincerely or just wanted to watch me turn funny colors.

Happy Monday!
