I went to the grocery store today. Outside a band was playing, and they weren't really that great, but they were young. As I was walking to my car, I passed by this kid, maybe sixteen, who had spikey hair, dressed to the eyes in "neo-goth" attire. I was decked out in faded "trendy" jeans and an Adidas t-shirt.

We made eye contact, and I got the impression that he was looking down his youthful nose at me. It was the expression on his face that made me think that. I'm pretty certain that he assumed that I was looking down my nose at him. At the moment I was looking pretty bitchy, because I hate shopping for groceries.

I almost wanted to turn around and say,

"Hey, kid, did you know that every day...several times... I post on an internet forum dedicated to horror movies. You know something else? There are losts of people just like you, and we get along so well. I respect them for who they are, and they respect me. Oh, and kid. I'm also a practicing Witch. I have been for twelve years. Don't let these duds fool you. I'm flying through this life incognito, while you wear your super-hero clothes all of the time. Don't worry. You're totally not alone."

I don't know. I just wanted to share that with you guys since there are so many types of people on this forum. How many of you would be tagged as the type of person to watch horror movies? How many of you mums, would ever be considered as the world's best mum, when infact, you're actually a damn good mum... one of the better mums around? How many of you have been called stupid when you know that you're actually quite brilliant?

Appearances? Are we hiding?

Hmmm...

I'm just being pensive tonight, I guess.
