I think I'm getting better with age, BUT

I recently had a hectic day at work (no longer MT), and I had to leave to go to the funeral. I was so preoccupied that I didn't think my route out ahead of time and messed up really bad, so that I arrived just in time for everyone to be coming out of the funeral home to drive to the grave site. I saw my husband and walked up to him. A young man was with him. I explained my lateness and he understood (knowing how directionally challenged I am and what is going on at work right now). He introduced the young man by name, and he'd just grown so much I hadn't recognized him, so I said cheerily, "Long time no see!"
Not too appropriate to say at the young man's grandmother's funeral, hey? DH could see I had too much adrenaline running to come down to funeral mood, so he graciously excused me to go back to work.
Duh!
