Some days back, I wrote about my stupid hair and how badly I need a haircut. I still haven’t made that appointment but on Saturday, I got a reminder that I probably need to do so.
I got a ride to the Kroger store on Ferguson Avenue, got a few groceries and waited just outside the exit doors. I was just standing there waiting for my ride—me and my grocery cart and walking cane.
From behind me, I heard a lady’s voice saying “Miss?” I didn’t respond because I’m not a miss.
I heard it again—“Miss?” This time I turned around.
The lady was talking to me. Apparently from my backside and with my long hair and cane, I look like an older woman.
When I turned around to face her, she looked at me and said “Oh.”
She asked me if I needed a ride somewhere which was nice of her. I said no, just was waiting on someone.
Yeah, I should make that haircut appointment. Let’s see if I actually do it this week.
