An observation...

Ok, so... I was at Borders on Friday night and made an observation. Ok, so you know at the Borders in Harrisburg there is a little cafe on the left side of the store, and the only other seating area is on the right side of the store. There are plush leather seats, that face out into the middle of the store. And then there are rows of books in the middle. And above the rows there are large signs that show the categories. And...well... I noticed that if you are sitting in these nice leather seats, directly in front of you is the SEXUALITY aisle. So, ya know... if you're a person who needs to find a book about sex, and I'm not saying that I am, but if you are, you pretty much have to do your browsing with everyone in the seating area staring at you, with a large sign above your head that says SEXUALITY. So you either have to be comfortable enough to not care about all those people staring at you, or you have to dress up in a costume so you're unrecognizable, or you just have to order your books from Amazon. Not that this applies to me, or anything.

So, are you saying you recognized me in my Walmart Greeter costume? Not that I'm saying it was me.

I just go in naked so they are too busy focusing on that to see what I'm looking at.

This was a hilarious thing to notice. Thank you for noticing.

Just to let you know that your endorsement of Dan Brown started me on a kick. I've now read Angels & Demons and The DaVinci Code in the last week, with plans to start The Lost... whateveritis... after Keaton goes to bed. I resisted The Davinci Code and all things Dan Brown when all the hype was going on, but I've been loving it wholeheartedly. Now I have to get the movies. I hope they're not rated-R...
