I can be observant but I’m far more likely to be oblivious.
OMG, once I came home rather upset because of something I don’t wanna go into detail about, just some idiots who kinda intimidated me, and anyway I got into the stairwell and a neighbor (probably the nicest one who ever lived here) came home while I was still collecting myself. She talked to me and was very sweet and made me feel better. As she stood there she kept scratching her stomach. That was weird so I looked and saw that she was rubbing her stomach. Her very large stomach, which I hadn’t even noticed at all when talking to her for several minutes. Without thinking I exclaimed: “Oh, you’re pregnant!”
I immediately felt grade A stupid and started to apologize but she just laughed and said “Yes, I am”.
My mother couldn’t believe that I didn’t notice because she was 7 months pregnant and so large she wondered if this woman was expecting twins. I didn’t even notice her stomach.
The next person dislikes talking to answering machines.
