today i stopped at an elder care apartment building
my destination was on the 4th floor and i rode up in the elevator with a wisp of a woman
if i sneezed i'm sure i would have blown her over
the doors closed and she looked me up and down and then said
"my my look at you all grown up and sooooooooooo handsome"
then she reached over and adjusted my uniform jacket like i was a small child
she beamed a smile up at me and i admit i was a tad suspicious so i tapped my pocket to make sure she wasn't a crafty pickpocket - she wasn't
the doors opened on the 3rd floor and she said "i'm sooooooo proud of you" gave me a big hug and departed the elevator
i made my stop on the 4th floor and headed back out - the radio behind the reception counter was playing
this song
a tad surreal - i hope i made someone's day a little brighter
even though i thought she was a crafty pickpocket
