Noticeable One

I'd just seen the kids on their bus to school (driven by a particularly dour lady I've dubbed, "Smiles") and started my trek down the street to "THE PATH" when a nurse, presumably on her way to work, drove up beside me and rolled her window down to tell me how impressed she was with my weight loss.

A complete stranger.

The second random stranger to tell me this.

All this has happened before. All this will happen again.
