Sunny with a chance of glasses

Well, it happened again. 
That's probably the fifth time this week.
It was a lovely day on campus...
 'twas absolutely lovely I might add.
Key word - was.
I just got out of class, and I was walking on campus.
The weather was splendid.
The kind of weather that puts a smirk on your face.
And we all know how stupid we look when
we smirk to ourselves.
I was walking amidst the hustle and bustle of students
rushing from class to class.
The college atmosphere is such a wonderful thing.
Most the time...
Off in the distance I saw someone wave at me.
But I wasn't sure if I recognized them.
What a wonderful thing - someone waved at me!
But on the other hand, what if she was waving
to someone behind me?
In these situations I've learned to not take risks.
So I didn't wave back.
I  smiled in her general direction, though.
There I go again... smiling to... myself?
When we were about 5 feet from each other 
she looked awkwardly away.
Then my eyes let me recognize her.
Hey how are you doing!
No, I didn't remember her name.
She said she was doing good as she walked away
I think she thought I was ignoring her. 
Maybe I should get glasses?
I wonder if glasses would help me 
remember people's names better
Oh... that's what her name was.

  1. I accidentally ignore people all the time, apparently. They tell me about it later.
