The humidity went away and of course the dewpoint dropped to the 50’s this evening. I went for a walk with Ranger and Cooper. There was a nice breeze, the sun was still quite hot to the skin. Ranger as usual was holding up the walk but I still need to walk him, if not he wouldn’t do much business in the backyard of our house.
We walked out to the main road and farther down the sidewalk I saw this black dude walking towards our direction. Ranger had to take a big business so I waited and this dude continued towards my direction. However, when he saw me and the two boys walking towards him, he walked outside the sidewalk on to the shoulder of the road. When we walked passed him he said:
He: You have big dogs.
Me: Yes, they are big (smiling and continued walking. He speaks with a heavy accent from Africa)
He: Yeah, they are big (looks like he was not comfortable with the boys)
He: Are they male? (By then I was a good 20 feet away from him)
Me: I’m sorry? Are they males you mean? Yes, they are males.
He: Are you married? (Pointing to his left hand and the ring finger)
Me: (WTF) Yeah, I am married. (And I pulled Ranger to walk away as fast as he could)
I kept turning back to see if that black dude was following me, but he didn’t. I have never had a stranger while on a walk asked me this question. When I got home, I pretended nothing happened on my walk, I didn’t tell DB. If I had told him, he will tell me “No-More-Walks-By-Yourself”. It’s better to keep things to myself sometimes.

wow… I think that was rather too personal a question to ask. Maybe it is his form of being friendly but a simple “hello” and “have a good evening” would have sounded less creepy than “are you married?” jeesh…

Better be careful when you go for your walks and make sure you have your dogs with you all the time.

Well, I never dare to walk alone over here. I am thinking if I would have 2 fierce looking boys walking along while guarding me, it’ll be good. Dogs supposedly know when to attack, as they are known as man’s best friends, don’t they?
