(no subject)
i try not to do any "social" computing here at work, but my boss is at lunch and the math library is under my sole command, so i'll share this little tidbit:
i live by a school/center for the blind, so there are often actual packs of blind people roaming around in my neighborhood. it's a bit strange, i'm used to seeing a blind person here or there but a group of them still sort of throws me off. i generally try to just walk/act normally when i encounter them, because i figure they probably know what they're doing and if i'm darting around all over the place trying to avoid them it will just make things more difficult.
except this morning i was run into from behind by an old blind man with a cane, followed by an old blind woman hanging onto his shoulders conga-line style, and another old blind woman behind her doing the same. amazing. they did not even slow down, just hit me full steam even after his cane hit my feet. hahahaha.
as a side note, i'm happy and things are good. i'll try to post more often.
