Do people look at you as though they know you're odd

I notice it when I go shopping with my stepdaughter or granddaughter. That look that says "WTF have we got here then?" I sense I give off certain vibes.

    Yes! It happened again only yesterday. I was walking along with Izzy my dog eating an apple I had picked off our tree. An elderly neighbour approached so I smiled and said hello. She glanced at me briefly with a strange expression then looked down and away. I didn't hear a reply.

    I was wearing a hat at a jaunty angle so I wondered if it was that. Had I got toothpaste on my face or something? Did she disapprove of me eating an apple while walking along the street? When I was young I always dressed eccentrically so if anyone looked at me strangely I could assume it was because of my clothing. I may start doing that again!
