rfmcdonaldAfter rising out of the Stygian depths of Osgoode onto the northeastern corner of Queen and University, I paced for a bit. It wasn't to keep myself warm since there was only a bit of chill in the air and that was more energizing than anything else. Boredom was the key motivating factor; yes, I'm one of those people.
Rounding the corner, I saw something odd lying on the top of NOW Magazine dirty lime-green metal box. There was a cardboard tray, filled with small shrink-wrapped objects that looked vaguely like sparkplugs, with wide bases tapering off to a tip. As I got closer, their owner approached me.
"These are mine," she said politely. She about about my age, perhaps a bit older, with short-cut brown hair and a long grey spring coat.
I jumped and turned. "Oh, certainly." I asked her what they were, and she said something about bottles.
"Bottles--I'm sorry?" My brow creased.
"My dispensing bottles, I'm a homeopath." She normally didn't travel with so many bottles, she went on to explain, but she had just come from Montréal where, apaparently, homeopaths' bottles are available in bulk quantities and cheaply, too.
"Cool, thanks." I smiled and nodded as I walked back. I didn't have the heart to mention Avogadro's number to her.
