Are you Sally?

Conversation overheard at lunch today:

"Are you Sally?"

"Yep, I'm Sally."

"Forgive me for asking. I don't trust my memory."

"So you're Sally?"

"Yep, I'm Sally."

"Thank you. You're so good to me."

"Are you Sally?"

"Yep, I'm Sally."

"I have to ask questions 'cause I don't trust my memory."

"So you're Sally?"

"Yep, I'm Sally."

"Thank you. The day you were born you made me so happy."

"Are you Sally?"

"Yep, I'm Sally."

"You're so good to me. Thank you."

Thank you, Sally, for taking your mom to lunch today.
