Another day, it was the same story, ______ a different neighbor. When George’s cousin Carl stopped to pick me up, I politely refused, ______ I had to lose weight.

“Yeah, that’s what George said,” Carl said, “but I think it’s ______ for you to lose weight since you are not fat at all. We looked at each other ______ without saying anything. I climbed in, and we headed to a town for breakfast again. Nobody even said anything on the whole way.
