RUN!!!! They're spreading, invading every aspect of one's life! My neighbors took me out for their anniversary dinner a week or so ago, (lovely twist which I truly appreciated). We were trying to have a quiet conversation, when a gaggle of young ladies arrived. They no sooner sat down, than they pulled out dollar-store wedding gear, plopped it on their heads, and one of them stood up and loudly announced: "It's my wedding, and I'm the bride!" Deathly quiet ensued. After a moment, a quiet buzz of conversation resumed. Five minutes later, the announcement ritual drowned out conversation again. The rest of our meal was tolled with these five-minute announcements. I was ready to pretend it was Halloween, and announce a 'Dead Bride' party. I figured the rest of the diners would be glad to help with the preparations. My neighbor forstalled me, loudly announcing, with a fake simper: "It's my anniversary, and I'm here with my boyfriend!!" Is this an isolated spotting of obnoxious BZilla, or has she developed new habitat? Cea
