Really responsible

Standing waiting for the bus I heard a woman comment on how tired she was lately and it seemed to never want to go away. A guy with her mentioned that it was because she was pregnant. Looking over I could see she was heavy with child as she lit a cigarette from the butt of the cigarette she had just smoked.

Brilliant! Really responsible lady!

Regaled with music

Standing waiting for the bus I could hear music, no angels were flying around so my time wasn’t up. Looking around I saw a woman standing against a wall playing a recorder. She was doing pretty good, none of that annoying recorder noise that makes you want to rip the thing from the person’s mouth and throw it.

For a musical instrument, your recorder sucks as a boomerang!

I recognized some of the tunes and it was quite pleasant to listen to while waiting for the bus. One guy commented on it reminded him of some Kung-Fu movie and did a few Kung-Fu type moves.

To me I was reminded of rolling English countryside, an earlier time, where men wore ragged tunics, green wool tights, had bows slung across their backs and their arrows all a quiver. Now if she had played Greensleeves I would’ve been right there
