Have you been guilty of looking at others your own age and thinking, “Surely I can’t look that old?
I was sitting in the waiting room for my first appointment with a new dentist. I noticed her D.D.S. diploma. Which bore her full name.
Suddenly I remembered a tall, attractive, dark-haired girl with the same name had been in my high school class some forty-odd years ago. Could she be the same girl that I had a secret crush on, way back then?
Upon seeing her, however I quickly discarded any such thought, this grey haired lady with deeply lined face was way too old to have been my classmate, Hmmm, or could she??
After she examined my teeth, I asked her if she had attended Central High School.
”Yes. Yes, I did.” She gleamed with pride.
"When did you graduate?” I asked.

"You were in my class!” I exclaimed.
She looked at me closely.
