People Do Change In Looks Over The Years

Today I was in McDonald's with my mother, sister and her daughter.  My sister came to visit and we thought we'd stop there for a lunch.  We were sitting at a table when a guy I went to school with came in with another guy and sat at a table not far from us.  I said hi to "Tom" (not his real name) and he said hi.  I didn't know the guy he was with and never thought anything of it.   Later I went to the bathroom and when I came out I walked by their table.  The guy I didn't know said "Hi Gloria".  I stopped in my tracks and took a good look at him.  Then it dawned on me that it was another guy I went to school with.  My hands were wet from washing my hands and not using the hand dryer but I shook hands with him anyways.   He had changed quite a lot in looks since we were in high school (don't we all).  I asked him if he had recognized me and he said "Tom" had told him who I was.  We had a nice talk and he told me he had joined the service and lived in California till some years ago.  I went home and got out the high school yearbook and was looking through it and noticed how everyone I know has changed in looks.  Most of us has gotten a little heavier.  Anyways I have, hee, hee.
