Dining Out

Char and I were dining in a plush restaurant, and I kept staring at an old drunken lady swigging her gin as she sat alone at a nearby table.

Finally, Char asked, "Do you know her?"

"Yes," I said, "She's my ex-wife. She took to drinking right after we divorced, and I hear she hasn't been sober since."

"That's amazing!" said Char, "Who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?"

Okay, that was a joke.
