Overheard

Today Laurel and I rode the bus to and from her appointment to get her two month shots.  On the ride home, Laurel was nestled into her sling, happily asleep, and I was sipping my vanilla latte.  Two elderly women sat behind us.  Here is what I heard them say...

"That woman has a baby."
(Are they talking about me?)

"Well, she's married--she has a wedding ring on."

"That's her right hand."
(they're not talking about me)

"Well, some men like big women."

"Yeah, especially Italians.  They like them big and dirty.  They like really smelly women."

****
Really?  They said that out loud?  I take no responsibility for the content of those statements!
