Anything Else (Woody Allen, 2003)

May 30, 2009 21:54

Went shopping today. I don't like to shop. I don't enjoy it and I'm not too good at it. But I was feeling ambitious and wanted to take care of a bunch of things. So I went to the Dufferin Mall and dropped by the watch/shoe repair place and gave them my stopped watch. The dude put a new battery in and looked at it and said, "your watch has a problem" and handed it back to me. Then I went to the glasses place to get my glasses tightened. The first place wouldn't do it. The dude said, "these are very old and I'm afraid of breaking them." So I went to the Hakim on Bloor on the way back home and I gave them to the lady in the empty store. She said, "I won't be resposible if they break." Confused, I said, "Why would they break?" "The plastic is terribly old. Did you buy these as vintage glasses?" "Yes," I said, "they're from the 70s". "Well the plastic is old and dried out and I'm afriad of snapping them, but I'll give it a shot. These are very Woody Allenish" she said. I liked that.
