Beep You

So I was walking down the sidewalk today and I heard a loud, intrusive 'BEEP' behind me. I didn't think anything of it but then I heard an elongated version a second later. A long, annoying 'BEEEEEP'. At this point I realize that I'm not actually being honked at by a taxi but in fact literally beeped at by another person on the sidewalk. I finally turn around after the fourth beep and see a woman pushing a child in her carriage.

I then assumed it was the child making the noise and just being, you know...a really tactful, polite little kid. But the thirty-something year old woman pushing the carriage then looked right at me and 'BEEP'ed in my face. She wasn't even smiling. She looked like I just put down a grand piano right in front of the last three yards of her Olympic race. 

They seemed to be moving at a normal pace and not in any sort of hurry. But after another BEEP I finally stepped aside and almost bumped into a tree. I mainly moved over because I couldn't believe that this was actually happening and I wanted to see what their destination was (Dunkin Donuts). 

I thought I had problems jaywalking and getting honked at, but now to add flame to the fire I now get verbally beeped at while walking on the sidewalk. Sweet. Next I'll be attacked by pigeons when I try to sit on a park bench.

P.S. A great song to listen to when you're reading inside and it's raining outside: 'Nightminds' by Missy Higgins
