Inadvertant Eavesdropping

While walking the streets of NYC you are bound to hear things that will either make you stop and giggle or shake your head with confusion and/or wonderment. Here are a few from the past few days :

1) Dude! Now she's making me eat lettuce... WTF?
My thought: Dude! She's "grooming" you for the future... be aware.

2) Man in front of the Marriott Marquis: Yeah, they moved the TKTS booth from Times Square to here.

Woman with him: What do you mean? How could they move Times Square?

3) Visiting Man with first time visitor to NYC pointing to the Port Authority: "See that building? That's where buses come from NJ and Connecticut to Manhattan.

Me feeling friendly: It is amazing that buses come from all over the country and it is so coordinated.

Man: Rolling his eyes and looking at me like I'm an alien says... "pffft - from all over the country - yeah right"

Saturday Spotlight

Yesterday while I was at Walgreens, I saw a couple of teenage guys standing around the empty checkout counter - pointing and giggling. Like apes drawn to a monolith, a couple of their friends joined them and the the laughter got louder. My curiosity got the best of me and I had to see what they were so totally enthralled with. It was this.... I have to admit - it made me laugh also. While I know that it is designed for babies and diaper rash - my first thought was two cheeks stuck together.

SIMply Gay

Yes, I discovered last night that my favorite SIM, Aida is a lesbian. It started out innocently enough... she met some guys over the past week that she wasn't interested in - and all of a sudden her thought bubbles started showing pictures of Tricia. So after a few visits by Tricia, both their thought bubbles started showing hearts and lips.... and so it began. The courting, the first kiss and finally last night... woo hoo (in SIM-speak).

Now the true social butterfly that Aida is, her wants are showing that she wants 2 lovers at once... not literally at once, but just "dating" 2 at once. There is no provision (that I know of) for 3 SIMS to woo hoo together. Now that would be a sight!

I blame Eric for this development - he knows why :-)
