The other day I was running low on my All Bran. You see, I'm one of those guys that likes to keep my life “regular”, in every way possible. Now, because of the cost of food these days I try and make a visit to the grocery store as brief as possible. I don't even pick up a basket, “If I can't carry it, I don't need it” that's my motto.So, as I'm looking for my box of my regularity, something catches the corner of my eye. I stop, give it some thought and say to myself, “Nah, I'm seeing things must be the meds the doc's got me on”, and put it down to an hallucination. I grabbed my cereal and made my way to get some of Dunkley's finest cow juice. Then, out of nowhere, I get another quick glimpse of this vision turning the corner. So it's not the meds. Phew!You know those horror movies where someone or something runs behind a victim the audience sees it, but not the person who is about to be stabbed? It was one of those kinds of scenes. Well, this thing isn't going to be sneaking up behind me no time soon. I'm going to confront it full on. So off I go looking for it.I'm holding my milk and cereal peering down the aisles to see if I can get another glimpse of this apparition, when all of a sudden, there it is, the reason for my quest a woman pushing her trolley, her hair in rollers and she had on fuzzy slippers. I couldn't believe my eyes.Now surely wearing curlers in public is not some sort of in your face anti-establishment demonstration, or some kind of ironic fashion statement at least, not one that I'm aware of. In fact, I have seen some ladies attempt to hide their head adornments with a scarf. Yeah, right! Like that's going to make any difference. No one's head is shaped like that! Believe me, you're not fooling anyone honey.Now, I know we got a long way to go before Bermuda supermarkets will get one of those websites dedicated to the attire of their shoppers, like Wal-Mart. I mean, have you seen the pictures of the types of people (or freaks) that go into that store? You've heard the saying “Crack kills”. Well, from the amount of cracks exposed in that place there are a lot of corpses walking around doing late night shopping. Don't these people own mirrors at home?It has always been my nature to give people the benefit of the doubt. Now, the only way I can figure this out, is maybe wearing curlers in public is all about multitasking. How else can you shop for kitty litter while getting your hair done at the same time?So, what about the bedroom slippers? When I mentioned this dress code to the wife, she said bedroom slippers are very comfy. Well, I'm sure they are, and if you ask my wife, I find it very comfortable wearing draws and a string vest around the house even when friends drop by uninvited and even the ones that the wife did invite, who I don't fancy much, have found me in my tidy-whiteys but I certainly wouldn't go out grocery shopping in them! However, my attire is a great deterrent to those annoying people knocking at my door asking if I've been saved they see me in all my glory with a beer in my hand! Needless to say, it's a very “short” encounter.
