"Blissfully Happy"

There was an older lady who came through my line in my first week of work, when I'd just begun dating Collin Pennington, and she asked in a grumpy, robotic voice how I was, to receive "BLISSFULLY HAPPY. *-* " 

She looked at me like I had sprouted alien antennae and asked why, and I told her, and she responded with continuing incredulity.

She has come through my line five times now, and every time she asks me if I am still blissfully happy.

Yesterday, for the first time, I saw her smile.

Update: The last time I saw her, she invited herself to my wedding, whenever it happens. She scowled at me and informed me she would stay alive that long. I'm so glad to have this story in my life.
