person A: We were supposed to go out of town for labor day but we had to cancel.
person B: That really sucks. Is it because your mom was in the hospital? I am a psychic_comma_ so I tend to know these things.
person A: No_comma_ our daughter fell off her horse.  She needs to have surgery on her ankle and then she will be in a boot for 8 weeks after that.
person B: I am so sorry for your loss. It seems that I have to re-calibrate my psychic abilities.
