And something weird happened......
The Market has this great little coffee corner at the back. We've started a new tradition of meeting there for coffee around 10am. They have really made this area cozy with several small, cute and different seating areas. But the best one is the "Friends Sofa".
Do you remember this?
Well, just like these guys, we have "claimed" the sofa as ours. So this morning we were settled in "our spot", drinking coffee and chatting. Well, all of a sudden this stranger interrupts our conversation. It was the oddest thing. She says she has a "dr. Phil" question for us. And before we could react she asks what we think of this friend of hers who has 16 feral cats and is expecting a baby with his new Mail Order Bride.........(and sadly, the story didn't stop there)
Huh??? Now, what exactly do you say?? I almost looked around to see if there was a hidden camera somewhere. LOL Has that ever happened to you? A total stranger just launches into a weird random story? The bright spot is that we all managed not to burst out laughing and luckily someone else came along to distract us long enough for the lady to leave.
Things are never dull downtown !!
What would Dr. Crane say? LOL Reminds me of a Frasier episode. Are you sure about the camera? :-)
ReplyDeleteThere are some weird people in this world for sure. sounds like a fun Saturday.

That's funny!!
ReplyDeleteLOL!!! always some in a crowd, Blessings Francine.
ReplyDeleteWhat you described happens to me all the time. My friends tease me about it because no matter where we are, what we are doing someone will come up and start a conversation with me. My friends just scurry away like rats deserting a sinking ship when it happens. I listen, nod my head and reply if necessary then saunder away.
ReplyDeleteThat is strange, funny but strange.
ReplyDeleteWhat a weird conversation to have with strangers. She must be delusional or on a mind trip or something. lol.

Oh my goodness I am laughing with you! Some peoples kids. Hahaha. Glad you had a final diversion. :)
ReplyDeleteNothing like thinking your on Candid Camera and you're not!! People these days...
ReplyDeleteSo funny! What would Chandler be saying...
ReplyDeleteThat is so funny. You live in such a funny place.
ReplyDeleteOh my. Not sure if her friend needs as much help as she does.
ReplyDeleteHi Kim! I popped over here from Kim at F or D's. Aw, the friends couch sounds lovely. That is odd about the feral cats and the random conversation!
ReplyDeleteWait...you didn't scootch over and make room to get us more info on this story? ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's hilarious. xo Laura
ReplyDeleteLove that you have made the sofa your own "Friends" spot. Very odd that the woman sought out you and your friends for her story. I believe I would have been looking around for candid camera.
ReplyDeleteEveryone should have a friends sofa to go to on Saturday mornings. How cool is that.
ReplyDeleteI don't blame you for looking around for a candid camera. Not sure what to say about her Dr. Phil question. Weird to say the least! I will be curious to see if she comes back next Saturday.
Have a wonderful week
Love
Maggie
LOL!! It's never boring around there is it? Why on earth would someone ask advice like that from strangers?
ReplyDeleteHa-ha. The friends sofa sounds nice. As for the stranger, could have been a writer doing research. I have been tempted to do the same, but I'm never gutsy enough. I hope you answered her!! Nice to meet you :)
ReplyDeleteSo funny! I think I have a "weirdo" magnet in my body some where...probably my butt which explains a lot! Looks like a great place to hang out anyway..I wonder if she'll be back next week? Keep us informed!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun place to sit and visit with friends, yet how random that the woman would feel free to do her "research" with you.... Takes all kinds, doesn't it?
