Soo... I had the funniest encounter today with an old man!! so after I went to class, I stopped over at jessi's closet (thrift store) because jessi saboe needed to run errands and I told her i'd watch the shop for her.. So i get there and she explains things and then i just do a few random things she needed to get done and no one was coming in.. So I decided to read a book that i had to read for school. So anywayz i get done with page one and i hear the door open.. i look up and see a very old man.. i say hi but he doesn't say anything.. he continues to walk towards the counter.. he stops and says "So is this your grand opening?" I replie "well i'm not the owner, i'm just volunteering, but yes it is " man: Well I brought you some snacks! I hope you like ritz crackers! me: thank you "smiles" (I start to just humor him, i figure, why not! he didn't seem like a creeper.. only a cute old man.. that was a little out of it)
He began to open a brown bag that had a piece of yarn holding it closed" me: I need to practice my checkers,i have a tournament coming up soon me: "Smiles" he then puts out a checker board and says Do you play? I respond.. Kinda i've played a few times. he then begins to set out the pieces and tells me to make sure i have all my chips and we began to play.. at this moment I just wanted to die laughing.. my thoughts were "Am I really playing checkers with an old man in the middle of jess's store?" so we play checkers I ask him if he plays a lot he tells me that he's been playing since he was 7, I sensed he was missing something when he started telling me jokes about Hair parts, and when he would go backwards and forwards with the same checker piece when it wasn't even *whatever the term is for bringing your piece all the way across the board" after he told me the HAIR part joke that i don't remember and didn't really get ... he asks me "how do you part your hair? down the middle? or to the side?" me: to the side... old man: do you comb your hair everyday? me:yes old man: why? me: um so it doesn't get tangled? i think at this time he told me some more jokes about a pumpkin.. i don't remember .. but i do know he told me some pumpkin joke.. old man: do you want to play another game? (he beat me) me: well i better look after the store old man: okay, i have other places to go anyway, besides if we played a second time i'd win anyway
then he showed me his "prizes" that he got from winning checkers, it consisted of a paper bookmark, a hair clip, a barbie comb and thats all i remember... oh a few feathers, he pulls out the mini barbie comb which was blue and said i won this from my buddie but we dont know what it is me:maybe its a comb? old man: no its to small. old man: bend your head down me: ok? he then begans combing my hair into a middle part old man: i'm making you a middle part oldman: put your head lower he continues to carefully give me a middle hair part... old man: there now you have a middle part! old man : Want to arm wrestle!? me: ummm.. sure? then of course i let him win because i didn't want to hurt him haha.. then old man: give me your hands me: ok..... he held my hands and said something then let them go.. asked me my name.. he told me his name fredrick, alan fredrick he said... and then he had to leave.. and that was the strangest day of my life.. then i pretty much just sat there and went... did this really happen??? or was this a dream? haha oh my life.. i love it!!!
