By now, you all know that I am on the lookout for interesting characters (people) for writing inspiration. Today I encountered several unusual sightings. Beware, 2 of them are somewhat disgusting:

  1. While driving, I saw a woman, beautifully dressed in a suit, sitting on a bench at a bus stop. She leaned over and spit a repulsive drool  on the ground several times. Shocking! GROSS!
  2. A woman at a shoe store stood at the wrong end of the cash register looking aggravated, but did not say a word. The cashier asked her what she was waiting for. She said, “I am trying to return these ugly shoes, but you are ignoring me and helping everyone else instead.” The cashier said, “I’m sorry. I thought you were waiting for a friend before checking out, since you are standing over there.” The lady then said, “You would think that, because you are not a good sales person.” Wake up on the wrong side of the bed?
  3. As the mail carrier approached my house to stick the mail through the slot in the door, I heard her talking on her cell phone saying, “That deodorant is like water. It doesn’t work at all and then I am left with unbearable body odor and soakin’ wet arm pits. You know it’s bad when you cannot stand your own smell.” Who was that poor person on the other line? How did that conversation get started? Thank you for sharing. NOT!
  4. While paying for groceries, a cashier asked an elderly lady in front of me how she was doing today. “Well, I’m not dead,” she said. “And at my age not being dead makes for a glorious day. Although the cost of these apples is so shocking that I almost did die. And then I would have to tell you that this is not a very good day, being dead and all.”
