Talking to Strangers (Tuesday Edition)

subtitle: or maybe I will meet people in this town

sub-subtitle: or maybe I don't have to compromise my principles by joining the Unitarian church just to meet people. (As I don't believe in one God, the father, the almighty, the maker of heaven and Earth, of all that is seen and unseen...)

Barrista:
Told me all about the new Tori Amos album.


Manager of Starbucks:
Saw me knitting. He talked to me for at least 5 minutes about knitting and how his friend is executive producer of a tv show about knitting and how I should ask for him the next time I'm there and he will give me her card so I can call her to get copies of tapes of her show. (!?!?!?!?!?)


Panhandlers:
At least four people asked me for change.


Some guy by the newspaper box:
I was reading the headlines and he said that he had a quarter and if I had a quarter then we could share a paper.


Friends of Profgrrrrl's Collaboratrix:
Ran into one of them. Probably should call or email C.


Former students:
At the grocery store.
