Overheard and Shout Outs: Aug. 19, 2016

OVERHEARD

Are there tid-bits of conversations you’ve heard while standing in line at the grocery store, serving a table, or walking down the sidewalk that make you smile, cringe or laugh out loud?

“I almost took your advice on tweezing my brows when I’m really bored but I have so much time on my hands that it would be a disastrous thing to do today.”

“In the meantime, I think I’m just going to go to sleep on my yoga mat to change up my scenery a little bit.”

“Your inside life may be a disaster but your outside life isn’t too shabby, so deal with it.”

“Battle of the khaki capris. I should go out there!”

“I was a chubby Cheetah Girl, and it’s documented forever.”

“Well, the last time I had a sip of chocolate wine, I vomited. But I’ll give it a try.”
