LOL - that's the way "they"

congrats on your great weight loss - keep up the great work - kathy

Kathy, what "great weight loss?" I' had one of those once upon a time, but have since screwed up royally.

sounds like a "meet-cute"

What a nice NYC story. I've had some nice conversations with strangers as well while on public transportation. It's harder these days though with everyone plugged into their phones.

I should have been clearer. It was a woman, not a potential date for me, and she's 83. Smart as hell, witty, aware, open-minded, spirited, etc. We had a very long wait for the bus and conversation flowed in many directions. The bus ran slowly, so more time to talk. We live only 3 blocks apart, so got off together. WE had so much fun that I had an instant's thought of suggesting number exchange, something I've never done. I kept quiet, but she made the suggestion. That gave me the bit of chutzpah to suggest the coffee. Y'know, people always have the intentions, but the follow-up fizzles. If we don't get in touch, I still had a terrific encounter that made the day nicer. It really was wonderful.

I have to go to your profile just to read this question. So they may be doing something like that.

Pirate, Winnie got it right from time to time.

Elode, the ending of the status was little more than "ask away." I'm an open book, except for the pages that stick together.

No Candy! Great job! You can get through all of this!

Yay for your smile!!

Thanks, Shel. It's silly, but getting no comments on my first few status entries made me feel like the kid no one wants to play with. I've been feeling a little fragile around the edges lately.

Indeed, Brownie. Next step up is Girl Scout. I wasn't a Brownie, but I still have my GS pin and knife. I should wear the pin some time. Thanks for the idea.

me too....now the beginners are called daisies!

Then you're younger than I (who isn't?) and/or the mother of a young girl. Here's Google search's blurb from Wikipedia. I had no idea: "Since 2008, Girl Scouts of the USA have had six age levels: Girl Scout Daisy, Brownie, Junior, Cadette, Senior, and Ambassador. Girl Scouts move or "bridge" to the next level, usually at the end of the school year they reach the age to advance." The "cadette" heading with its feminine ending is dumb.
