That Face.

We have been walking for as long as this toenail is not covered in nail polish. Miles are a concept of time, not a logical distance. That is, a mile is 20 to 25 mins of walking. That is the only sense it makes. Metric... mind exploding with logic.
I have one of THOSE faces. A face that gives her number to strange people on buses even when, or especially when, she is scared of them. The face that nods politely and seems to end up in THOSE situations. Today a man came and started talking to me because he noted my Australian accent. He then told me that Australia stole a patent for coconut micro gold filtration... and is now sitting on the patent and the USA is now unable to use this technology, that his friend invented. But because Prince Charles is a friend, or rather, on correction, knows him due to his quantum physics theory he will be able to get the technology up and running. Australians are good people.
He then politely offers to call the store owner who is too hungover to open the only food supply store in town. I wait like a desperate puppy outside the shop as we need to resupply for 4 days food... or die. He goes and calls the owner but no luck... will not open today. The man then offers one of us a lift to the next town to go shopping. I say I am unsure of our plan but will go ask Neil. Neil has snuck off to the only diner in town to order a burger.
I go and ask Neil. Man follows. Neil is eating his burger. We decide to stay the day and hope shop opens tomorrow. But thank you kindly for the lift. Man decides he would like a burger too... so we all sit and have burgers... Neil is thrilled.
This man has had an amazing life! He has lived with bigfoot and had beers with him. Bigfoot kills other humans and rips their arms off but not this guy. He also has reverse engineered a UFO feom a micro particle he has acquired and thinks we should be concerned Down Under as we are an island and the aliens are coming out of the water. We also have a 40 ft. lizard, that is definitely not a crocodile, that we should be worried about.
That face.
I hope the hangover was a big one.
Stay safe.
Xx
