She: “You are giddy. Look at her, she’s giddy!”

She B: “She is. She’s turning red. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her turn red before.”

Me: “No, no, no, no, no, no…I am NOT giddy! And I AM NOT turning red!”

She: “Oh, hon! Enjoy it. I don’t remember the last time I was giddy. I’m jealous.”

She B: “Remember the quote, ‘Soar on the wings of anticipation. It almost makes up for the thud at the end.'”

Me: “Maybe I should meet him before I start anticipating.”

She: “Enjoy it now.”

She B: “There’ll be enough time for the thud later.”
