People are weird
Dec. 16th, 2007 12:18 pmPeople are weird (which includes me as well of course).
I came home from an SCA demo yesterday in my Elizabethan finery and unloaded my car and hauled everything upstairs to my condo. Dumping everything in the living room, I stepped outside my door to get my mail (the mailboxes are just outside my door). I got my mail and was looking it over while walking back to my front door when this old geezer in the building came walking up. He came me this major "You are a freak look". I should have said "Good morrow" or something.
Today I'm doing laundry. I had 3 loads going and planned to do another 3 when the first finished washing (we have 3 washers and 3 dryers). When I got down to the laundry room to swap the first load, a lady from the building was there looking confused. She wanted to know if that was my laundry and I said yes, and I would move it into the dryers, figuring that I'd have to let her play through as she got there before I got my next batch started. But she left her laundry basket on top of one of the washers (which still had my done wet laundry in it) and I had to ask her 3 times to move it, so I could put my laundry in the dryer and she could start hers. I'm pretty sure English is not her primary language. So, then she sorta asked if I was done and I said. "Well, I was planning on doing 3 more loads, but you got here first", and she turned around and left without a word. *boggle* So I started my next 3 loads. People are weird.
Done jobs: Went to the bank, did grocery shopping, started laundry.
