Had a funny exchange at the supermarket this afternoon. A little old lady was ahead of me in line, and as I was unloading my cart, she commented You look very strong! (Eerie, because she had no way of knowing how much heavy furniture Ive moved in the last couple of months, and the heaviest thing in my cart was a gallon of milk.) Anyway, I said, I am! I just got through moving a couple of couches. and she said, You look like a Viking Queen. You should be wearing those horns like they wear (gesturing above here head). OK, I was a little flumoxed as to how to respond to that. She continued, Im from Finland. The only small talk I could summon regarding Finland was to say that Finnish was a very difficult language to learn but not as hard as Icelandic. She said that was true, and that although she was Finnish, she was not blond, whereas everyone else in Finland was blond. And then she had to pay for her groceries.
