The little boy that takes guitar lessons before Peter was waiting in  the lobby for his mom to pick him up.  She must have been running  behind.  The boy, who I would say is probably 7, was watching out the  window for his mom, but he was also looking at me and Sarah.  Sarah was  doing her homework and I was bored.
I noticed the boy had his hair  spiked up with hair gel and he was wearing a plaid shirt over the top of  a printed t-shirt.  He had on mismatched sneakers and one of his socks  was a multicolored striped sock that went all the way up to his knee  and the other was a shorter sock with stars on it.
"Oh!   It must be crazy sock/crazy clothes/crazy hair day at your school  today!"  I said trying to make conversation.  Because last year, we had  all three of those days at our school so this didn't seem like a stretch,although I did think it was curious that they would be celebrating all of the craziness in one day.
"Nope," was his reply.
"Oh,"  I said laughing nervously.
Seriously, I know better than to try to  talk to people out in public.  I always end up regretting it.  Sorry  little kid, I hope I didn't hurt your feelings too bad.
