a heartwarming incident
We were at Crown Video today checking out the next few discs of Dark Angel and I wanted to see if they had Iron Jawed Angels because I’ve been meaning to rent it for AGES. When I went up to the counter to ask, there was an older woman checking out, and when I asked she said “Actually, I’ll stick around for this, because I’ve been trying to find it too. They didn’t have it last time I checked. I’ll probably have to get it off the internet.” “Well, I’ve been meaning to rent it for ages, and it sounds like something I’d really like, I keep hearing how good it is, so I hope they have it!” “It’s probably too radical for the likes of Joplin, Missouri, honestly…” This is when the person behind the counter tells us that nope, they don’t have it. I say “Well, I guess it’s the internet for us!” And she laughed and agreed while leaving.
It’s probably not a big deal for anyone else, but it certainly made me happy. Strangers around here being nice to me is weird enough what with the purple hair amongst other things.
Anyways, I’ve got a pile of hair dye on my head right now (semipermanent, I’m not trying to fry it), but I’ll post pictures later!
