People Watching Can Be a Hobby

Sometimes I like to just watch people's actions, how they interact, and what they say. Below are some quips I overheard yesterday that I found amusing:

Two girls on their bikes, possibly sisters, riding off towards school. Says one girl to the other, "Hurry up, you little maggot!". The other girl is panting and trying to catch up.

It was Lyle's Kindergarten graduation picture day yesterday, and he was telling me how 2 of his classmates weren't there to get their picture taken.

"Hailey and Bailey were absent," Lyle says.

Me: "Oh, their names rhyme."

Lyle: "That's what everyone in my class says. They both have blond hair, but they're not twins."

Me: "Oh cool, blond hair. What color are their eyes?"

Lyle: "I don't know. I don't look at their eyes."

Me: "Why not?"

Lyle, in a whisper: "Mom. Because it's impolite to stare."
