I Think My Parents Have Reached Senior Citizen Status

This could be a very serious warning sign.

You know when people get old and they start to acquire these little quirks, like when my grandparents would pocket-dial us from their cell phone and leave 10 messages that consisted mainly of them talking about Shingles cream and bologna sandwiches?

Creepiest. Thing. Ever.

So I’m innocently walking to work from the Back Bay train station after dropping off Alli Smith this morning, and I have to admit, I’m pretty beat and all I want to do is go to bed.

As I approach the corner of Clarendon and Stuart, I see this little creepster trying to entice people to park in his garage (if you know what I mean…and I think you do).

My first reaction was that I was still sleeping and this was some kind of silly dream. I really don’t like any kind of costume where the facial expressions do not change, i.e. the mask from Scream, or any clown that has its smile painted on, etc. My second reaction was that maybe someone was filming a “Coffee and TV”-like music video (they were not). My third reaction (it’s things like this that make me late for work) was to take a picture because maybe I was seeing things. But you guys are seeing this, right? Right?

Anyway, this is how I began my day. Ugh. There’s nothing creepier.

So I gained a pound this week, but I’m really not surprised considering I ate about 200 slices of apple pie, 400 oatmeal cookies and 27 bagels (trying to cut back on the carbs) on Sunday alone. Labor Day weekend really took a toll on my weight loss, but it’s just more motivation for next week right? Right?

Here’s the breakdown:
