Lilith and I stopped to talk to a woman in a red HSTA shirt. She said Lily looked thirsty. We were standing quietly while Lily sat in front of her, when an old beaten up blue minivan swerved over. Inside a local Asian guy, maybe in his 40s, long wavy hair and something of a beard. What is this? he asked. Are these houses new? When did they put them in? To which I responded, the 1970s.
I told him how to get out of the neighborhood by turning right and going down the hill. So he turned right, only to do an awkward u-turn in front of someone else. As he headed downhill, he muttered through the window, something about the nice dog.
And as of last semester, the "Glaucoma medicine is great for creativity!" meme was still current in English 100.
