Whatever it was she was on about.

Probably the grass was half an inch too high.

We ushered her out the door and Debbie locked it behind us.

Debbie was an interesting character.

I think she was one of those people who thought her life was supposed to turn out different and she felt like a stranger in her own world.

She was nice and meant well, but well, she was a mess and dumb as a rock.

She had that look about her like you could tell she was a former beauty queen.

But these days, it always looked like her makeup was left over from the day before, and she smelled like Virginia Slims and raspberry body spray.

Her ex-husband had gotten her the job because he was golfing buddies with the owner.

And she had just been coasting since then.

She wasn't the best at her job, but I think the owner felt sorry for her after her husband ran off with that Sunday school teacher.

So there she sat and pickled in her office for decades.

There was nowhere to rise to.

She had tried a couple more husbands, I think, hoping they'd each be the one to make her into the stay-at-home trophy wife she'd always wanted to be.

One ran out on her like the previous one, and the other was arrested for a Ponzi scheme.

I remember thinking one thing in those days.

I didn't want to be Debbie.

I couldn't be her.

I had dreams.

I wanted to be a real estate agent.
