Thank you for being a friend (not)

Me: I really don't like my new haircut.

Atticus: Why not?

Me
: It looks old lady-ish. I'm afraid it makes me look like Bea Arthur.

Atticus: Nah ....

Me: (smiling smugly, snuggling up to my sweet husband, awaiting the next loving thing he'll say about the wife he adores ....)


Atticus: More like Betty White.

My husband always thought Betty White was the most attractive. And now I'm wondering in what context it was that we had that conversation...
Photo, please. You can poll. :)

I agree; Betty White is a total cutie pie.

Now if he had compared you to Estelle Getty, that would have been bad.

How funny. I think Betty is the cute one, too. It's what's under the hair that counts though and you are much, much brighter than Betty White!

You mean you didn't hand him the coffee table book- What Husband's Should Say When We're Fishing For Reassurance?

LOL! As long as you can put your fingers through your hair I think you are okay.

Oh, that is hilarious! I agree with Maggie (?!) and Suzanne, Betty is far fairer than Bea. I'm looking forward to meeting you soon, no matter what your hair looks like!
