Someone just duct tape my mouth please

Me:   Oh, hi! We met at Meredith’s house a few months ago…

Woman with baby:   Oh yeah, hello! How are you?

Me (to baby):   And hello little Rex!

Woman:   Uh, no, that’s [another woman whose name escapes me now’s] baby. This is Ben.

Me:   Oh! Right! But she’s from Australia, too, right?

Woman:   No, she’s from England.

Me (with much lameness):   Um, yeah, but you both have similar accents.

Kinda like people assuming the boys are identical.....
