The passage of time

@Piper

No fair! Bringing that up and not giving the details! 😂

@DrWatson Around 12 years ago when a friend and I were out and about, we stopped at a TGI Fridays for a beer and a snack. It was in the afternoon and the place was almost empty, and our young waitperson was quite enthusiastic and friendly. At one point he popped up with "are you mother and daughter?"
My friend had recently lost a considerable amount of weight, and had voiced her awareness of how much older the weight loss made her look in the face. After an awkward silence, one of us said no, that we were just friends. It was probably my friend, who laughed it off most convincingly.

@Piper A long time ago, a girlfriend dragged me along to a flea market. At one point she was off on her own, and then came back to me and said, "I need to lose weight. A woman just came up to me and pointed out where the maternity clothes are!"
