Have you ever seen a homeless person in Williamsburg? It's a very rare occurrence, but it does happen occasionally. Maybe some of you other small town/suburbia dwellers can relate to this.
So the story goes, on the way to work today I saw this homeless lady (I assume) with crazy long hair and shambled clothing walking along the highway. I happened to be at a light and I noticed that it was right outside of my wife's neighborhood, so I was a little curious as to what this person was doing. I lost sight of her when a car pulled up beside me, but as the light turned green, I saw her appearing to converse with a road sign. Putting her out of my mind I went off to work and didn't think much about it.
Then, the same day, I was coming back from ihop with Alison, Sarah, Marc and Thad, and I turn my head to look at 7-11 and I see the same lady siIhoutted against the flourescent lights. I felt that she was staring at me, but obviously I couldn't tell. Granted, this probably isn't that strange, but it was still kind of freaky, and led me to start thinking about it. I don't know, I overanalyze everything.
