 Old Girlfriend
Old girlfriend
My wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school reunion,
and I kept staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat
alone at a nearby table.
My wife asked, "Do you know her?"
"Yes," I sighed. "She's my old girlfriend. I understand she took to
drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear
she hasn't been sober since."
"My word!" said my wife. "Who would think a person could go on
celebrating that long?"
So you see, there really are two ways to look at everything!
