gossip girls
I love people watching. It is one of my favorite past times. It gets even more interesting when you can hear the conversations that go on.
I started walking around Washington Park every evening after work, it’s a little over 2 miles and that means plenty of time to eavesdrop! The Washington Park area (Wash Park as we call it) is a Mecca for young professionals, new moms, svelte cyclists…you know…everyone and their dogs.
Rugby Dude and I have been walking the 2+ mile track every evening with Cody. You would not believe what I overhear other people talking about! I know I’m being nosey, but seriously! It is mostly the women gossiping to each other, the bored housewives strolling their huge strollers down the middle of the road so no one else can get by…or the catty co-workers taking about their hatred for so and so, or the nosey neighbors gossiping about whatever.
Seriously people, I don’t want to hear about Todd and Linda’s affair, or your sex life or lack thereof! You need to stop airing your dirty laundry and other peoples where EVERYONE can hear you. You think you are talking to your girlfriend in confidence, but now all the rest of us in the general area heard you too. And you weren’t talking quietly either. Next time, maybe you should call your friend to gossip- or better yet; STOP TALKING BEHIND PEOPLES BACKS!
Gah.

Hi there! I totally agree with you. I also hate it when people talk about personal issues on cell phones in public. I sometimes catch myself doing it, too, and I cringe. I also hang up and call the person back later, when I’m in private. Too bad not everyone has that sense.
