My Wedding Day Blunder

On the first floor of a hotel in Cape Cod A larger than average lady got on the elevator She pressed floor number two Immediately I blurted out “Number two???” “You could have walked” Her immediate response was “What??? And lose a pound!” My new wife first cringed then breathed a big sigh of relief Sometimes I blurt out stuff without thinking VERY DANGEROUS!!!

Sometimes we need to bite our tongues. Did you know there is a malady called polycystic ovary syndrome that 10% of the female population has (all races) and it causes obesity? Sometimes we just don't know what we need to know to understand what is happening inside a human body. I enjoyed reading your work admitting to one of your faults (not easy to do). Sara
