Check Out!!! Check In!!!

Weeee, it warmed up!
FINALLY!
Oh, seesh, I´ll help you out, you won´t get rid of this earworm if you don´t listen, scientists say so, so here goes:

I certainly chose the Aussie version from Priscilla, Queen of the Desert!
Please, take a moment, turn on the sound and enjoy the show! (And watch the movie afterwards).

I never saw a Frilled neck lizard, but here you can!!!
As Emus, I nearly killed a female and later a baby, just nearly, I´m a "good" driver! I saw them coming in thyme... time ;-)
Oh, and Indigenous Australian art is in there, too, it´s really arty and the earworm will go away, too!

          

Back to good ole, warm Germany, or Braunschweig!

I got my stripey hat out (my red hat makes no sense here, no one would get the joke if I lost it).

Hat, mask, I enter, "hello, I..."... "oh, hello Mrs K, I get your bread!".
How did she even recognise me?! Next time I´ll try the red glasses, let´s "see"! ;-)

Grocery. I stand at the check out. In line. Hat, mask, distance.

Movement to the right.
Huh?!
A new chash-out-girl, waving at me.
I had people in front and behind me, it must´ve been my stripey hat, she waved at ME!!!! Yes, ME!!!

I pointed at myself and she signaled "YES"!

I went over, her cash-out was actually closed already, boy, we had a good laugh!

People, I tell ya!
Wear bright, funny clothes, it will make people happy and then they want to make YOU happy!
She told me so!

Now that Gurri-time is over Stripey-hat times start :-)

Also... it makes you feel young :-)
It makes you giggle like a teenager! It feels good!

I´ll introduce you to some Braunschweig-stuff, one is a hat-store I wanted to go to with Ingo.

He looked it up, it´s for rich people, hats are made for you and just for you, I am not that important, let´s have a craft beer instead, and see... my cheapy (don´t tell "him"), my cheapy hat does a great job, right?!
(in German hats are male)
(But I loooove that green hat!!)

"A" screw? Yes, we did that. To the right in pic above you see Ohlendorf. Yes, you can walk in, get service and you can buy one screw if you need but one screw, we love that traditional, old store!
Plus a screw is cheaper than a designer hat ;-)

And! On the way home two students carried a crate of beer into the shadow and one of the young blokes opened one bottle right away.
I had my mask down - safe distance, certainly - smiled and said "Prost :-)".
He looked up and replied a tad puzzled, "thank you".

"Thank you"?!!!!
I giggled the rest of the way home!

Oh, it´s June, let´s welcome Paulo!

And remember...

You´ll check in to a faster check-out :-)

Addendum. After having read Valerie´s post... FINALLY. Priscilla certainly is the same subject. Acceptance.
If you don´t know the movie: The performer who breaks down is the Father of the boy who cheers to him, clapping his hands, smiling, accepting his Father´s sexuality and work.
As does his wife (they´re still married) and a friend they made on the journey.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Priscilla, when do we ever learn acceptance the big way, for all?

Is it but a dream?

We have to smile and make it come true!

I do hope our Christopher Street Day can take place this year.

Acceptance and smiles, we need that, through ALL colors.
