I had lunch the other day with a friend and as women are wont to do, we talked about anything and everything. Included in our conversation was the ongoing sagas of a mutual friend.
I am sure all of you women know the type (men are usually oblivious to this). The person thinks the world revolves around them and they are only too happy to fill you in on their trials and tribulations until your ear is ready to fall off.
You love them dearly as a friend, but no matter what illness you have, theirs is worse. No matter the great bargain you found, they found a better one. And if that isn't enough, you are regaled with their entire life experiences since the last time you met.
