Wow.

Tomorrow I will wow you with my tales from the Flea Market. Today, a little story.

I just finish ordering my drink at Starbucks and went over to wait for my drink. I walk behind this couple and the man turns around and coughs right in my face. He looks at me and says, "Oh, sorry." I said, "Wow." Then just as cool and calm as his first "Oh sorry" he says, "I apologize."

Now, I realize he had no idea I was behind him and in his defense he was avoiding coughing on his girlfriend and the barrista, but when your spit and wind even accidentally fly out of your mouth into someone else's face I think a more horrified and mortified apology is in order.

In my distant youth I was riding my bicycle past a parked car when an older gentleman spat out of the window.

Ah, the fond memories of childhood!

I know how you must have felt. Perhaps you need to begin carrying one of those nice silk folding fans to hold in front of your face in public places. A new and practical fashion trend you can begin!
