Minor Distractions IV


While taking Emma to the hospital for her hearing test (a standard screening), I had to maneuver through some crowded spaces. Emma was in her car seat, as she was sleeping quite soundly and it is ideal that she be sleeping during the hearing test.

Typical male reaction: To not even notice that I was carrying a baby. One man glared at me as he walked in my direction, as if I was obstructing his path with a large suitcase rather than carrying a baby. (And I wasn't even blocking his path - he just wanted to pass on the right, where Emma was, as opposed to the left.)

Typical female reaction: Broad smile.
