I'm sure even in your tired state, you look lovely. 
And for the love of God, no one should ever ask a woman when her baby is due, etc. That could be such a disaster, especially if they just had the baby, or whatever. I'm still of the belief that unless you have something nice to say to someone, you should keep your mouth shut. You know what else kills me? When someone looks at you and says, "SMILE!" Like you're supposed to walk around with a grin on your face for no reason. Gah, people should really just shush. |
My eyes do have dark circles. Also, I spent 40 minutes smoothing out my hair this morning but its the tiredness that gets the attention.
That pregnant question is a quagmire. I used to work with a woman who was very thin but she had a little bump in her lower abdomen. Well, it wasn't so little and she would get asked that all the time! I had a friend ask someone once who wasn't pregnant. My friend was mortified. She told me never to ask anyone that.
Not that I ever would!
