I've noticed a lot of strange things these last couple of years...it makes me wonder if people are getting weirder...or am I just always in the "right place at the right time" to witness the weirdness?
1. There's a lady in our city that hula-hoops. You say, "Caron, that's not that weird!" Let me set the scene. She carries her own little boom box to the middle of a divided street...and this isn't just any street...It happens to be extremely busy road. There are traffic jams, whizzing fire trucks and of course funny stares. Yet, she keeps on swivelin' those hips. There's even been articles written about her in the local newspaper.
2. When I worked at a gym, there was a guy that came in whom we called "Dance Party" He would stand in front of the mirrors and dance with a pole for about an hour. He was interesting to say the least.
3. There was another interesting character that used to come into the gym I worked at. He would carry a pair of dress shoes in his hands (he had the exact same pair on his feet) and he dressed up in a tweed suit coat with black pants every time he came to the gym. Not only did he wear this outfit to the gym...he also exercised in it. Oh..he did change his dress shoes to another pair of dress shoes to walk on the treadmill of course. After he walked for 10 minutes, he would sit on the end of the treadmill..change his shoes and watch people...
4. One last gym story. There was a lady who exercised at gym that we called "Dress Fun" She told one of the trainers the first day she was in that she liked to "Dress Fun" so hence the name. Boy was she right! She was not a tiny lady...and LOVED to wear THONG leotards that were cheetah print and other various shades of...shall I say it...hideousness! I think she knew she dressed a little crazy...but she continued to live up to her name.
5. I run into all kinds of interesting people at the hospital..but can't relate the stories for HIPPA purposes. Boy there are some good ones though!
6. Well...that's my "weird" stories for now...I probably shouldn't write anymore, because for all I know there's someone writing a "weird" story about me somewhere too...I just like to think that I happen to see these people in their weirdest moments...and all their other moments in life are completely "normal!" I always hope that people will give ME the benefit of the doubt when they catch me in a weird moment! :)
