Kokesh-me

My friend M. just got back from a trip to Japan. She very kindly brought me a beautiful little Kokeshi doll -- see?




So I brought it home and showed it to my housemate, Jeff.

Me: Look what someone gave me today!

Jeff: Aw, that's cool. And it looks like you!

Me: . . .

Jeff: It does!

Me: How so?

Jeff: . . .

Me: . . . ?

Jeff: You know, the hair and . . . trailing off

Me: You think it looks like me because it's scowling.

Jeff: Noooooo. Nuh-uh.

Me: Mmmm.

Jeff: I never said that.
