Beautiful and Smart????

Is it possible to be both Beautiful and Smart? It depends on who you ask. If you ask me, I would say yes, it is definitely possible. If you ask Stacy, it depends on what time of day it is.

One morning after Stacy had stayed over, I was up and was working on a project that I needed to complete for work. I was working out of my email inbox, when all of the sudden, my file completely disappeared. Not just minimized at the bottom of the computer, but completely and totally gone. I freaked out. This was a pretty big project and I couldn't afford to lose it entirely. I started cursing at the stupid computer and Stacy called out from the other room "What's wrong?" Yelling back at him, I told him my project was ruined. He told me to bring my laptop in there to him and he would help be figure it out. Taking my laptop, he opened a few files and there it was! At least one of us is halfway decent on a computer. (turns out, i had collapsed a file within another file and all that needed to be done was to expand the file--who knew?) He then patted me on the head and said "It's okay, you can't be beautiful and smart" (and then my head did a couple of poltergeist spins and he got THE LOOK (if you are related to me or know me well, you know the one I am talking about). Realizing his mistake, he quickly added on "this early in the morning."

My nickname with Stacy is now Beautiful and he sends me a text message every morning that says Good Morning Beautiful. I really look forward to this. Occasionally, when I want to give him a hard time, after he calls me Beautiful, I will respond with "so what, am I stupid today?"

I think I have gotten that same look but for way different reasons. This is really cute.
