Anyone who knew my mom, knew she LOVED to meet new people. You couldn't go anywhere without her striking up conversations with strangers. One memory I have is when she and my older sister went to NYC to visit my younger sister. I can't remember where they were going, but the instructions given to my mom were simple, "Don't make eye contact and don't start a conversation." As soon as they emerged from the subway, my mom made eye contact with a rough looking gentleman and said, "Hi!" If memory serves, the man wasn't quite sure what to do, so he returned the greeting. I haven't seen the show, but in this scene, Susan reminds me of my mom.
