Medieval Sunglasses

I tried on my new sunglasses for Katelee today. "What do you think?"

She cocked her head to one side and stared at me for a second, before replying. "Mom, you look medieval."

Medieval?!?! My first thought was - they didn't have sunglasses in the 10th century (did they?). My second thought was - how does she know that word?

I wondered if she knew what it meant. So I asked her.

"It means," she told me, "the middle between evil and nice."

Ah. Medieval. It makes perfect sense.

But I'm not exactly flattered.

Maybe I should return these sunglasses.
