I enjoyed the mall so much today i went twice. It's a really pretty mall, with a soaring atrium. I was feeling hope that i've found an alternative to my mental health drop-in, which has been underwhelming recently.

But then the most astonishing thing happened. A young teen girl went to the washroom right outside the main entrance! Eeew! There were a gang of girls all being rowdy. I guess this one girl thought she'd push the boundaries to the nth level. There are several washrooms right in the mall. But i guess she thought she was making mischief. Disgusting.

So now i don't know what i'm going to do with myself. I'm telling myself not to let one incident ruin a pleasant evening at the mall, enjoying the foodcourt, doing my puzzle, browsing the stores.

Appalling.

I think it's because of COVID and we just have to get re-socialized again. There have been many incidents on the other end of the spectrum, of men holding the door for me lately, which is very polite. Maybe the young teens are just going wild now?

Sure makes me wish i enjoyed staying home more. But i get restless and bored. I guess i'll just have to work harder at entertaining myself at home.

Edited to add: It's also the time of year, the weather, the first heat of the Summer making the youngsters go crazy.
