These days I'm so conscious of the fact that questions can be intrusive and I'm so worried about making people uncomfortable, but fortunately, neither of these people seemed to take it that way. The cashier felt maybe a little on the spot? But she also seemed to think it was a cool question, and when I didn't push the matter it made it all all right. But the guy asking for change really seemed to *like* the question, and it felt like we really connected over it.

I did have to nerve myself up for it. Like jumping in cold water.

For the healing angel though, the assignment was specifically to talk to someone you **do** know, so it wasn't quite so bad in that respect (though difficult in other ways).
