A Nectary customer was telling me about her Very Sebastopol neighbor. "She is the kind of person you can't ask a question and get a simple answer. Or even make a statement. Like I'll say I'm thirsty and fifteen minutes later she is still talking about hydration and fourteen reasons why you should drink coconut water. Or why hemp ice cream is healthier for you than coconut ice cream. Or why quantum touch is better than massage. Or what kind of tea to drink to help your REM sleep so you'll dream better. One day she told me the type of yoga I do is not right for moving kundalini energy. I could go on and on....'
At a coffeehouse I somehow ended up talking about the song "Age of Aquarius" with a few people. One woman remarked, "I never really understood the significance of this song until I took an astrology workshop. The lyrics from that song are very important! If you know anything about astrology. If not it's just people singing a really peculiar song about the planets."
While I was waiting for a meal at Peter Lowel's, the guests next to me:
"Here is that salt again. There has been pink Himalayan salt everywhere we've gone this weekend."
A local told me about her land mate: "She said it's okay for her to go into debt. She has good karma with credit cards. I'm thinking to myself, what does that even mean?"
A mother to her friend, talking about the neighborhood she used to live in: "My kids got along fine with the other kids on our street. But a few of the moms were kind of prejudiced toward my kids. They just weren't Waldorf-y enough for them."
My friend and I were cruising around Whole Foods trying to decide what to eat. We ended up at the smoothie counter, and he commented: "We have been walking around and talking about tantra and ayahuasca and The Cosmic Serpent and beet juice, and nobody is fazed by any of this."
Me: "Yeah... That is kind of the point of my blog."
