On my way home yesterday, I sat next to an old woman with teased big red hair and bright coral lipstick. At the next stop, another older woman got on the train. The woman next to me recognized her and called out "Celia! Celia!" to get the woman's attention. Celia recognized Big Red and sat down next to her. They started chatting about the weather, arthritis and Brooklyn. A few minutes passed by and Celia got up to get off at the next stop. As she made her way to the doors, she yelled to Big Red "Tell Phyllis I said hello." Big Red yells back at Celia as she stepped off the train, "Phyllis croaked years ago!"
Poor Phyllis.
