this lady comes up to me in the market and asks me if I know how to check peaches to see if they are ripe. I smile and say "sure." as I take the peach, this woman and (I am guessing), her boyfriend begin to act quite odd. then she asks me if I have ever swung. of course, I had no idea what she was talking about. she began to explain. hmm... "swung", no, I have never but what an odd way to find one who "swings", yea? sadly, I gave her back her nasty little peach and continued shopping. I see so many things and I have to wonder how I stay sane.
while at work once, I was walking past the nurse's station to go check on a patient. I glance to my right and see a nurse open a drawer beside her, pull out a sandwhich, take a bite, and put it back. (now, this is a med drawer.) I ignore it and do what I was doing only to go into another patient's room by accident. there, I see a worker from housekeeping... she was spraying air freshener on her underarms. she looks at me, laughs, and sprays her bum and says "ya never know!" I have no idea what my expression was but I do know that I finished my job for the day w/o thinking about it again.
I think of it now, when I finally sit down and relax. I think of all the things that go on in my everyday life that quickly get swept away, because I am much too busy to react. there are so many.
I see that my exboyfriend was bored (I assume, I mean what the heck?) and he went to some website called, netdisaster and played like he was shaving the hair from my blog? and out of all the "fun" things one can choose on that site from vomit, to laser guns, he chose to just shave me. I do not know, but it is v odd. yet, I do in fact, stay sane.
I think people faze me less and less - I just glance at them and go on. (what are ya gonna do?) so tonight I sit and write in my blog and I wonder... perhaps I am surrounded by a few people that know of nothing better. should I help them in the right direction? no, I am a mere mortal. the only thing I can say--it reminds me of this man from my childhood. he used to pass our house barking at cars... if that gives you any idea of what I am thinking.
on a good note... life is treating me v well. I really try not to let anything get to me. I have a busy weekend ahead and feel happy in my heart. I try to surround myself with normal people to balance it all out... ("it" meaning the odd things that I come across). I have to be to work in 4 hrs or so and am so sleepy, so pls excuse any typos. xo p.s. thanks to my sweet friend, michael from LD, for the image of the memo. :) he is so funny.
