violence, part the 3rd

[rm]

kalichan and I, as we do, went out for dinner tonight for Lucius' birthday. ANYWAY, we're walking around Union Square, because I need to go use the bathroom in the Starbucks, and this homeless woman gets right up in my space, very, very close and says very very loudly, "What if I snapped your neck, huh? I can, I can break your neck, then you wouldn't be enjoying your summer very much, would you?"

I swerve out of teh way, which is when she starts yelling at Kali and threatens to poison her

If you've read Descensus. Hell, if you've read Harry Potter, you _know_ how utterly fucking WEIRD this was.

Good lord, it's amazing you make it home safely each night! Please tell me this has to do with the recent full moon and that most of the time everything is a-ok LOL

I have never had a day like this before in my life.

Oh my God.

I'm so glad you two are okay, and that neither of you were hurt or provoked to violence. I'm not sure I could've held my temper under those circumstances.

And I am now concerned for my friend who is an NYPD cop; if this is a sample of the street weirdness, she's having a hell of a weekend. (Being a weirdness magnet on the police force is, well, one heck of a level of crazy).

...happy birthday, Lucius.

Nothing to do with this post, but remember that 1950s pic of 'you' that I found? You've just popped up again: in the 1940s, and a lot more glammed-up this time:

Wow. That's rather startling. (Now I have to ask my sister if we have any of my great-aunts' hats like that left.)

Mother of gods. I'm glad I took the day off for medical reasons.

That's really damn bizarre and naturally sets off all sorts of impossible scenarios in the imagination of a fantasy fiction fan, which you should probably resist the urge to imagine!

Anyway, I hope that the one day was an anomaly and am glad you're safe.
