I think I've at some point said that I work with seniors in an independent living situation. So I see them where they live.
That said, I just saw some funny shuff.
One of the seniors just ran out to meet the dial-a-ride bus and SHE WASN'T WEARING PANTS. She had a sweatshirt on, and shoes, just no pants. Her friend ran out (she was alerted by someone in the office that her friend was naked) and was like, WHAT ARE YOU DOING??? And she goes, "Well I didn't want the bus to leave without me, so I just grabbed my pants and ran" (with her walker).
I was starring at the front door, jaw open, and the guy who was working the lift (she lifts into the bus because of her walker) says, "Well she's wearing a bathing suit, so its ok." How weird understanding of him.
Anyway, she waved her pants at me (I couldn't make that up - she waved her pants at me while she was standing pant-less in the parking lot), smiled and got on the bus. She was outside in the rain without pants on. I guess the swimsuit makes it less ridiculous, but for crying out loud its like that Shel Silverstein poem about the guy who had everything on but his pants. We all have those dreams about going out naked, but apparently some people do it in broad daylight...AND ON PURPOSE.
God I love seniors. They totally throw caution and rules into the wind and leave by the seat of their...swimsuits.
Just wanted to share. Its a friday after all.
