Last night, I was walking down the street, and as I was approaching Toojays two old couples came walking out of the restaurant. As we got to the street corner, there was a sudden “clang!”, and I turned to see one of the husbands falling backwards to the ground after walking straight into a street signs’ pole. Being concerned, I tried to start moving to help him up but the entire group he was with broke down in laughter, with the other husband spouting “you dumbass! How many times is that going to happen before you learn to watch where you’re going?

Mind you, these people are easily 70+. But i guess this is such a regular occurrence that there’s no need to feign concern.

And then this morning, two cops were in line ahead of me at starbucks made their order. One stayed traditional to the stereotype, ordering a coffee and a couple mini-donuts. The other hewed far from that stereotype, ordering a spinach and feta breakfast wrap, accompanied by a chai latte. I’d never have noted the order if it had been made by a “regular” person, but since it was a police officer (I don’t know if policewoman is a term), it caught my attention. Don’t know why.
