Friday Funnies

While making copies at an inhumane hour this morning, a woman walked into the teacher's lounge and complimented my hair (sweet lady).  However, what happened next disturbed my bubble in a way that has never been done.  The sweet, stranger-danger lady proceeded to touch my hair and asked how I style it.  I think I flinched, but SSD woman did not pick up on the hint.  It was brief, but I felt somewhat violated. 

It made me wonder about my obsession with touching people while I talk to them.  I must do it.  All the time.  Maybe it makes me closer to them.  Or maybe it makes me feel like they really want to hear what I have to say...  Perhaps I should stop this.  Perhaps this makes people feel uncomfortable.  I'll put some more thought to it.


Wish for the weekend:  a snow day on Monday...  Please.  Oh to have a day to sleep in, drink coffee, and read FOR PLEASURE.
