"Um, grey," I said, choosing to look rather vaguely around while fingering a strand of my hair. "Grey? What grey?" It is difficult to make any preâ€" tense of casual elegance standing in the midst of diapers and toilet paper. But I did my best. All the time, of course, my mind was screaming at the top of its lungs...GREY...She is asking about GREY hair...your hair...My smile was strained; my eyes were bugged out... "You know," she said, pointing impatiently at the top of my head. "The grey hairs. You were here on Tuesday." Brief encounter in store made her feel so young August 31, 1994 On this particular Thursday, frazâ€" zled and sleepâ€"deprived, I was downing the first of many coffees as I piled into the local pharmacy intending only to "just run in for a moment."

So think, really think before you so casually say you will be "just running in for a moment." "So how did you get out the grey?" she asked, her eyes straying to above my forehead.

The other part was simply astounded that a stranger was talking about my hair in the middle of a store. In any case, the mind is a wonderful thing and when you are shocked, I think it kind of goes into automatic pilot.

For if you are like me, you will choose to enter a store "just for a moment" the very day you look your absolute worst. I mean, it‘s like some sort of golden rule or something that says the day you throw on some grungy Tâ€"shirt and runners with torn shorts is the very day some cheery soul is sure to trill hello from across the aisle.
