Baby talk
At work I sit in a small version of what my friend Glenn referred to as a veal fattening pen (cubicles). Despite the 5 foot tall cube walls, you can hear other people's conversations; or if not the content of the conversation, certainly the tone. It's funny how you can instantly tell by tone of voice and body language when someone is speaking to a significant other. Of the 4 people surrounding my desk, one got married last month, and one is getting married this weekend. Lots of soft-spoken, breathy conversations hunched over the phone happening this summer.
This seems to be the summer of the wedding. Last summer everyone was pregnant, this summer, everyone's getting married (but not the same pool of people).
