What's the nicest thing anybody said to you?

Nobody says nice things about me, really--someone once said,   though, that my poetry was on par with Adrienne Rich's poetry so I guess that's something nice, but I think it's crap... and my bf says I'm a good pillow. Whether he means that figuratively or literally I am not certain...

When a friend of mine called me a freak.

My best friend tells me all the time that I'm sweet, beautiful, caring, loving, kind.....and I enjoy all those compliments. But the best thing was when he started calling me by the nickname "Jaybird" When I asked him why, he said because it was the state bird of where he lived. And it was a rare and special bird that we beautiful. And when people caught it, they kept it, because the bird is priceless...just like me.
