So I was going for a run through my neighborhood last night and I came across a woman mowing the lawn. She was in her 50s, I'd say, and she was wearing a bikini top and shorts pulled up above her navel. ...but that wasn't the funny part. She was also wearing a bandanna covering her mouth and nose like bandit in a cheesy western. Seriously! The only thing I can think of is that she's allergic to grass clippings or something. But then why wouldn't she wear a shirt? Unless you've got unresponsive glands or something you're going to get a little...dewy when you mow the lawn. So if you go shirtless, you'll inevitably get grass clippings stuck to you and smell of freshly mowed (mown?) grass. If you wear a shirt, however, once finished mowing, you can immediately change your shirt and presto! Grassy smell and errant grass clippings are immediately gone. So I'm not sure why Bandit Lady was out there in a bikini top. It was 7:30 pm, after all. Not exactly prime time for catching some rays. I guess she wanted to show off? In ultra-high waisted shorts? I don't know. I was on the other side of the street so I couldn't really tell if she had a nice rack or not. But hey, the bandanna gave me something interesting to muse about for the rest of my run.
