Maybe I’m just old fashioned, but there are some things you just don’t share in public. For example, I now know:

- The daughter’s court date is August 17th.

- The friend is trying to get her father back into rehab for drug and alcohol abuse. Her parents are in the midst of a divorce due to these issues.

- The mother admits they all drank way too much “back in the day”, but she doesn’t drink now. She is, however, taking painkillers every day.

There was plenty more I overheard, but nothing as juicy as the above, just future plans of college age kids (though the one with a court date isn’t going to college…. No surprise.)

I felt like I was listening to a soap opera. That’s just way too much info to learn about a total stranger. They should save it for the car or a visit at their respective houses.
