Absence
Coat check lady
This week I’ve been unfaithful a couple of times.
Instead of going to the restaurant where I usually dine when I’m in New York I went to Via Quadronno.
Tonight I went back to my significant other, as far as an Italian restaurant can be a significant other of course.
Nobody had noted my absence; at least that’s what I thought.
But then the coat check lady came to my table and she said: “I haven’t seen you in a while. What did you do with your face? You look so much younger.”
“Nothing,” I answered.
“I want to know your secret,” the coat check lady – who in summertime is more a greeter than a coat check lady – insisted.
“Nothing, seriously. Nothing. I don’t think I look younger.”
“If you use a special cream let me know the name of it.”
I was flabbergasted. This is what unfaithfulness does to you; it makes you look younger.

Mr. Grunberg, show us a recent picture of yourself and we will let you know if the lady is right.Arnon
Yesterday I was sure it was you at the pool where I went. The hair, body, face even swimming pants. But I figured you have no business in Klarenbeek zwembad. When he took off his sunglasses I was set straight. Too bad. It was kind of exciting to think it was you.Never been unfaithful in a relationship, loyal to the bone And I think that's a problem too.
Freud
The happiness invoked when somebody of service tells us that we look younger clearly shows the desire too be attractive towards people that are of no relevance too us leading to the conclusion that the unconscious will to be desired by everyone in the world manisfests itself probably on a regular basis.Unfaithful: The new anti-aging cream by Arnon.
