I had a quick trip to NYC to visit the girls. I decided to stay over as a bit of a break. I can do homework in an airport or hotel as well as I can at home.
We were celebrating new house, new job, new teeth, new engagement and the fun of being together again. It a blast and we usually laugh so hard that it qualifies as an ab workout.
My day started and ended with a case of mistaken identity. In the security line at Logan, the family in front of me had four kids. One of the little boys wasn't really paying attention, nor was I, and next thing I know he's got his arms wrapped around my legs hugging me! I don't know who was more shocked! The look on his face when he realized I wasn't his Mom was too funny. I mean we all must look the same when you're 3 feet tall. Apparently he is a painfully shy child as well. I'm sure he recovered by the time they got to Florida.
At dinner that evening, I was sitting alone in the middle of a row of tables. I was having a great time and had just finished my goat cheese and beet salad. All of a sudden this man I had seen at the bar earlier was across from me trying to hand me his coat to put on the bench next to me. I had no idea who he was but he was certainly insistent. Then he sat down at my table. The waiter looked at me. I looked at him. The people around me looked. The man then asked the waiter for a glass of wine. All of a sudden this man realized I was not his date. She was sitting four tables away looking really peeved. It was hysterical and I'm guessing the date didn't go well after that.
