A disabled man in a wheelchair approached me at the bus stop this afternoon. He asked me what time the 720 or 721 bus would be along, so i got off my seat and checked the timetable for him. No big deal. He was a nice man, had a good conversation about how annoying laptops can be when they decide they don't want to connect to the internet, and when he found out i am studying Nursing he actually gave me a heap of useful information. It was nice. He was a little creepy looking, but i don't like to judge people by their looks. A lot of people actually gave me pitying glances as they walked by. The whole "sorry he's bothering you" nod. It made me quite mad. Just because he is obviously a stranger, and disabled, doesn't mean he's bothering me. I was in no way inconvenienced by the conversation, he was a nice guy!
Anyway, apart from that, I BOUGHT ANNE OF AVONLEA FOR $7.70 AT A BOOKSHOP AND IT'S FROM THE 40S AND OH MY GOODNESS IT IS THE GREATEST THING EVER
this photo does it no justice at all. AT ALL
And i cannot possibly explain the smell. Oh my gosh the smell. This book is the greatest smelling book ever. The pages are yellow, almost orange, it's falling apart and has been so well loved. It has made me so unbelievably happy!!!
