The time has come

We (Helen and I) run into a building mate in the elevator.

Me: How are you doing?
Mate: Good. You’ve gotten a lot thinner.
Pause, chuckle by Helen & I (impressed that an older gentleman whom we rarely see would notice this). We all exit the elevator together.
Me: Well, I probably won’t be losing much more weight.
Mate: Think of it this way – it’s a great opportunity to get a whole new wardrobe.

Ain’t that the truth!
