Overheard on our walk, spoken loudly into her phone by a woman I’d guess is somewhere in her 70’s:

“Well, Beth, if I act like a petty teenager it’s not really stooping to his level if he’s acting like a toddler, is it?”

overheard at subway station: —that guy at the party, I thought his name was Maurice, I kept calling him Maurice. [pause] HIS NAME WAS KYLE. I CALLED HIM MAURICE THE ENTIRE NIGHT. AND NO ONE CORRECTED ME.

Deleting whole paragraphs from my manuscript is the emotional equivalent of stabbing myself in the chest.

Overheard on the elevator at work:

"..and her boyfriend got absolutely wasted at his boss' father's funeral, and wanted to stay and hang with the boys so she had to uber back from Rhode Island..."
