Surreal bathroom conversations
![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Cast of Characters: Me; Woman from next office over
Setting: antiquated bathroom at work (if ever you've been there, you know what I mean, and if you haven't, I couldn't explain adequately). She's washing out a coffee cup that had cereal in it, and I'm washing my hands (this requires careful choreography so that the soap is accessible to both parties)
Apparently her office kept mistaking her oatmeal/cardboardy cereal combo as Indian food. It clearly smelled like maple to me, but on further exploration, I could see where a curry-ish scent could be gleaned from the various "tonalities" of the scent.
Snippet:
Me: Well, I'm glad someone likes cardboardy cereal, because I certainly don't
Her: Yeah. Well, you know how some people like pain?
Me: (said slightly too emphatically) Totally.
Her: Well, I like cereal.
