Attack of the Old People
last modified: Tuesday, November 08, 2005 (10:14:41 AM)
Yesterday was one of those very weird days. I was practicing piano for an audition in the recreation room, trying frantically to memorize the 10 page piece. Suddenly, I get approached by this old man telling me "Excuse me. We are trying to have a class here. Would yoiu please stop playing and go away." I was in such utter shock, that I didn't know what to say! OMG!
I spoke to the leasing office and the old people were not allowed to kick people out of the room since they don't pay for the room, and it is open to all residents (apparently, they decided they want to do a yoga class). But, wow . . . . I just don't know what to say! Anybody else experience such weird encounters with the 4th kind?

I respect elderly people to a degree. I mean, we all have parents and grandparents. However, murderers and pedophiles grow older too, right? Who''s to say that someone is a decent person just because they are older than you? I''ve had many experiences in my life where old men have tried to run me over or push me around. I''m usually pretty easy going with them because they have a right to do certain things just because they have lived a long time and suffer from medical conditions. So, I dont take their cranky attitudes personally, I know they don''t mean harm (in most cases). But I also don''t let someone walk all over me in the process. Like I said, we all get old, including evil people.
