If people are strange, writers are weird. Apparently.

The thing is, other writers understand perfectly that you don't see the world in quite the same way as other people.

It's not only writers, of course.  I mean, when Picasso saw a toy car,  he didn't think, "What a great toy car!"  He thought, "Wow!  A baboon's muzzle!"

Now, I'm not suggesting that I'm Picasso, but I just got That Look from another

*rofl* You should have put a warning at the beginning of this post: "Don't Eat/Drink and Read." You had me laughing so hard I almost choked on my chicken. I can just picture The Look(s)!

Sorry about that!

But you must have known that a tale involving me and shopkeepers wasn't going to be about all the pretty dresses, surely? *g*

[mnfaure]

I will consider myself forewarned for the future. If I want tales of fluff and frills, I'll look elsewhere. ;-)

Ooh - you might want to stay clear of Lakeland Plastics. They have some very weird things!

[footlingagain]

Oh - haven't been in Lakeland Plastics for ages!

You're right, they do have some bizarre things - a person writer could become quite inventive....

Happy to hear it *g*

I love your choice of icon!

LOL! You must be super-fun to shop with. ;)

Heh. If I have to shop for clothes or make-up, I'm a pain.

Show me a book shop, tool shop or cook shop, on the other hand, and I'll make a beeline straight for it!
