As I sit in my usual spot and eat my lunch, I usually end up observing the people around me because there's really not much else to do other than watch the cars speed down Ventura Blvd.
The most interesting person award goes to a seemingly average, old-fashioned, proper woman in her 60's from the front view as she approached the Western Bagel shop behind me: white hair in a cropped cut, fair, creped skin, and a casual white tee, pull on pants, and sneakers.
As she walked out of the shop and away from me, I was surprised to see a small lock of hot pink hair that formed a sort of mini-tail behind her head. Totally unexpected. What a rockin' mama! In a sea of pre-conceived judgments that she's just your "typical old lady" all she has to do to prove you otherwise is smile, turn, and walk away. That hot pink lock is probably her way of giving you the finger, and in many ways is like a subtle yet in your face way to express attitude and spunkiness that is still alive and kickin'.
I only wish I had shot a picture of it..
