not in kansas anymore

a woman just stopped me in the middle of the street to tell me i have buttoned my coat unevenly. i don't know what i was more surprised at:

A) how observant the woman was. when i'm walking in the street, i'm lucky if i see an open gutter, let alone what a bypasser is wearing.

or

B) that she actually took the time to stop and tell me about my coat. there are people all over the city with unbuttoned flies, spinach in their teeth, poop on their shoes...and no one will say anything about it.

a rare case study, this one.
