The Different People I meet and See
After the last few days I have sorta gotten to experience the real world a bit more. Me and my mom have actually gotten out of the house for once. It has kinda given me a chance to get away from being in front of computer and see reality again. Not to say I forgot about it or anything.
As most of you know I am in the USA…the southern part. Not the most desirable place for a rising otaku or as I like to think of myself. The other day though pulling out of my driveway we were passed by a old worn out camaro. At least I thought that’s what it was…it was a little too banged up to tell. The woman inside the car looked as if she had not showered in days and could be in a federal prison. I sorta laughed to myself but then was taken back since I was just on anime forum moments before. I finally got to see…where I live in a way. It disappointed me in a way.
Today I was sitting in the Mcdonalds parking lot as my mom went inside to get something for us to eat. I was in the car reading my manga. The dogs were in the backseat doing there thing. Then all of a sudden there is a tapping on the window. I looked and there was an elderly woman and a young boy looking in at me. Of course I had to roll down the window and talk. They wanted to pet my dogs. It was a bit odd. This had never really happened before. I mean people have looked and pointed at the dogs but none have had the guts to come and tap on the window.
They stood there a moment and pet the dogs asked me their names. The older woman even asked if I was in college (I am trying to grow my beard back after shaving it off…so I looked a bit scruffy) I told her no a high school student, a senior. She then asked if I was going to college. I told her yes, and then she went on about her grandson who is working in the computer field and all these other things. I sat listening in awe…still in shock she has this kind of….well…balls.
After she left…..I was still In shock. My mom had gotten in the car and asked if I knew the two people…I said no. She laughed at me and told me “I understand why you hate to sit in the car with the animals” That experience let me have a chance to see a set of whole new people. The other day seeing the scary looking criminal-like woman, and then today seeing this nice older woman who just wanted to talk and pet a dog.
It still makes me a bit sad living where I live…so far from the things I love, being that there is no anime.manga stores within driving distance. The closest I have is a Books A Million an hour and a half away….but I cannot complain. I know I am not the only one.
I have no idea why I decided to bore you with this…but it was very interesting to me that is all there is to it.
On other news though. I have been made the Super mod to a forum I attend Animal Wonders. It is a anime-like forum despite the name of it. I am good friends with most of the people there. I enjoy being there. That seems to be big news for me. I have power now haha jk. I also intend to order me ANOTHER wall scroll. I am starting to see how blank the walls in my room look, so I think a sexy Chi-Chobits wall scroll will be quite welcome ^_^
The pics have nothing to do with the post itself….I just like neko-girls ^^
