Out and about this afternoon, I just missed the light, so I had ample time to watch what was going on in the mostly empty parking lot across the way. A car pulled in and parked precisely halfway between the psychic, on the left, and the vacuum repair shop, on the right. For a minute nothing happened. Then an old man with white hair got out, and went round to the passenger side and prepared to help the passenger (his wife?) out. It looked like it was going to be quite the production. Just then the light turned green and I had to drive off before I found out what happened next.
So my question was: were they going to the vacuum store or the psychic? If she was so decrepit as all that, why would she go to the vacuum place herself? She could presumably have just sent her husband. A psychic is not something you can really send someone else to do for you. On the other hand, if she was going to the psychic, why didn't he park so her side of the car was closer to the psychic and she didn't have to walk as far?
It's also conceivable they were actually going to the laundromat another door down, but I saw no baskets of clothes, and in any case they would probably have parked closer - say, in front of the laundromat. One last question remains: why would anyone go to a psychic in the first place?
Speculation?

Hrm. Perhaps the lady was very particular about her vacuums, and wanted to select one in person.
What's a psychic doing next to a vacuum store and a laundromat, anyway?
