snippets

I enjoy hearing snippets of conversations as I walk through my day. Here are a few sentences I've heard over the past week.

"I'm a firm believer that people don't change. You have a kid with a woman and leave her, have a kid with another woman and you're gonna leave her too."

- man talking on his cell phone

This man was walking towards me when he said this and I thought he was looking at me, but then I quickly saw the cell phone in his hand. The funny thing is, I looked like a mom because I was holding the hand of the 3 year girl I take care of once a week.


"But thank you for the compliment. I feel as though it looks good today....too."

-woman talking to her friend over lunch, looking down as she said this and touching her bangs


"How you doin, honey?
....I'm hangin in there. Just about all I can do. My ankles been hurtin for about 8 years now."

-lady walking past my door while I sat on the front steps with my coffee
