Yesterday's doctor's appointment

Aug 24, 2006 20:22

Old man passing me in doctor's office waiting room: Best of health to you. (A smile)
Me: (Smiles genuinely) Thank you. You too.
Old man: (pauses to bend towards my chair) Do you know why six was afraid of seven?
Me: No. Oh, isn't it something like because eight ate eight?
Old man: (leans towards my ear and stage whispers like I'm 5 years old) Because seven ate nine! (grins and walks away)
Me: (That just made my lifetime.)
