Not long ago there was a knock at my door.  When I looked out through the window to see who it was, I saw my girlfriend Alice standing there.  I was very surprised; I haven’t seen her in about six months and we have been playing telephone tag for a very long time.  I wasn’t expecting her, but was very glad to see her!

When I opened the door, we exchange hugs and kisses and I led her into my living room.  She asked “do you notice anything different about me?”  I looked at her really hard and noticed that she seemed prettier than usual.  I said “you have new glasses!”  She said, no, that’s not it, look closer.  I could NOT figure out for the life of me what was different, but I KNEW she was prettier than I remembered.  She laughed and said “I had my nose fixed!”  I said “WHAT!”  She laughed and said “I had a nose job; you know, a rhinoplasty, nose surgery, nose job!”  I was so shocked to hear that!  When we were kids she always told me how much she hated her nose, but we were such close friends that I never even paid it any attention.  Well, it seems that a while ago she slipped and fell in her kitchen and broke her nose!  Her doctor suggested that she take the opportunity to have a nose job!  So she did, and she looks so much prettier than before and is delighted with her “new look.”
