"Martha, sweetie, did you wind up with Farrah's jersey?" she asked.
("It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's a black man, sweetie! Don't look!") But there were no guffaws, no giggles, nothing.
"Sweetie, don't you want to try something new?" I said, pointing out a floppy-eared bunny costume at Spencergifts.com ($23.99).
"I said, 'Sweetie, do you want to go for a walk or wait out the rain?' She said, 'Let's do it.' That's the trooper I love so much".
Would love to see you guys! * Re: Dinner and Movie with Parents and Grandma Hi, sweetie, Don't know if you and Maggie already have plans for New Year's — I'm sure you do! — but we're going to be taking grandma to dinner and a movie again, and it would make her whole year (this one and the next!) if you joined us.
A fresh-faced young woman bagged my purchases, totaled my order, handed me the receipt and asked: "Sweetie, do you need any help with your groceries?" In my mind, I was suddenly transformed from an 84-year-old in possession of most of her faculties into a helpless old biddy.

When you're mad, or happy, or looking into the eyes of your sweetie, do you know what your face looks like?
