MLAARE -Egypt

Sometimes you have those unique customers that come into the store.
Memorable ones.
Ones that are hard to forget.

So there is this one customer that comes in on occasion.
I actually hadn't seen her for a while, so it was surprising to see her again.
Perhaps I just didn't work at the right time...

In any case.
As an older woman...you can tell that her mind wasn't what it used to be.
Her make up is a bit over the top--eye shadow nearly looked like a mask. Bright red circles on her cheeks.
Definitely a face you wouldn't forget.

And the conversations with her too are always interesting.
She's obsessed with cats. Will tell you how they're from Egypt, Cairo. That they're ancient animals. That we need to make sure all the cats we have get to good homes, that people can go to jail for not taking care of their animals. That she loves a certain school, asks if you're going to school, where you're from....

And then like two minutes later.
The conversation starts all over.
Again.
And Again.
And again..
If she's there long enough, you'll hear the same information five or six or even more times.

She's such a sweet spirit. Always likes to buy tons of cat toys for her cats. :)
