My Old Girlfriend
January 31, 2007
A man and his wife I were sitting at a table at his high school reunion, and he kept staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat alone at a nearby table.
The wife asks, “Do you know her?”
“Yes,” he 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 God!” says the wife,
“Who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?”
