she's unbelievable!!!

ok, so this is a new one, for sure. never in my life. today i arrive at the newark airport to return home from my site visit in new jersey... i'm in the security line. there is this absolutely adorable little baby boy with his mother in front of me. i am admiring how cute he is. i speak to the mother first, you know... the basics.. oh, " he is precious. look at those beautiful blue eyes." so then the mother is trying to get all of her items on the conveyor belt to go through security, so i am talking to the little boy.... he is smiling and laughing. then the mother comes back over and says... "ARE YOU HAVING A BOY?" i seriously about died. i said, "excuse me?" immediately, this beautifully thin, gorgeous mom realizes her mistake, and says "oh, i'm sorry." ha! i'm thinking sorry doesn't cut it. you've already slipped. i mean, it would be one thing if my stomach looked like i had a basketball or a watermelon in it, but it doesn't. i know i am not the skinniest thing on planet earth, but doesn't she have some class about her. didn't her mama raise her better? i mean, as a rule of thumb for myself, i would never ask a lady when she is due or what she is having, unless she volunteered the information that she was pregnant, someone else told me she was, or you saw her carrying baby items. you just don't assume about something like that. i could maybe understand if i was wearing something today that looked like maternity clothing, but guess what i am not. i am wearing black pants and a pink sweater - the sweater does come ot a little bit around the waist, but it so does not look like a maternity outfit or sweater. jsut because i'm not a size 2, doesn't mean that i'm knocked up. i laughed it off, but i thought it was pretty ridiculous that she thought i was preggers.
