corvideyeHaving dropped off my car for new tires and adjustments, I had a couple hours to kill downtown, so I went to peruse the library. There I encountered the following:
1. A Tyrolean hiker, or at least someone in that outfit, definitely travel-worn: green felt hat with floral band, peasant blouse, suspenders, lederhosen, white stockings, obviously well-used pack. Also a slightly non-Tyrolean collapsible shopping cart in tow.
2. A black-haired woman in full "pirate wench" costume: very low-cut black and magenta bustier, puffy white blouse, rucked-up black lace skirt over pantaloons and boots, feathered tricorne, etc. Just going about her downtown pirate affairs, like you do...
3. As I was looking at a display window, a very small girl dashed up to me and said, "Haven't I seen you here before?" I didn't recognize her, but was so bemused by the off the wall question and adult phrasing that I simply said, "Maybe!" Her mom called her, and she dashed off.
Oh Eugene, how you do amuse me...
