I'm at the shops and a lovely woman is serving me, there is music playing in the background, we're chatting and just as we're finishing up with whatever I am buying, she started singing to the song that was playing. She had a beautiful voice, but her singing was loud and well, right in my face, literally. I felt, hmmm, uncomfortable, sort of weird, and sort of like I wanted to cross my arms in a very obvious -this-is-making-me-uncomfortable gesture. But I didn't. I smiled, I think I may have nodded my head to the music every so slightly and I scampered. Am I an old lady in an old lady's body now godammit. She was just singing! What next for me? Getting undressed in the dark?
