Moment D307: Clowns

There are lots of people I know that are afraid of clowns. Interestingly, one of my best friends actually went to clown school. (Yes, really!) It is because of this that I know some of my friends’ deep-seated fear of clowns. These were the friends that refused to go to the clown show put on by all the clown students. (Can you imagine being in a small theatre filled with MANY acts of clowns if you were afraid of them?)

Well, this memory came flooding back to me as I saw a clown walking two children to school today. I had to do a double-take. I didn’t believe I was actually seeing clown walking on the side walk at 8am in the morning. But, there he was with his over-sized shoes, bright red/orange curly hair and red nose upon a white painted face.

Really though, I don’t know why I was so surprised. Clowns have to get to work too. Why not walk to work on a warmer winter morning?

A love strange moments that make me randomly giggle.

This was said moment today.
