" The Bag Story "
Ok so I haven't posted in forever- Its not like anyone reads this crap anyway..So odviously I got back from my 2 week hideous ok. Boy was that interesting...I drove from Houston to Oklahoma, then from ok to Arkansas, then to Clarksville Tennessee, which is literally a block from Kentucky.. Humm where do I begin??Getting up there was pretty uneventful.. Coming home was another story- I managed to make it through the speed trap state from hell- That would be Arkansas in case no one knows.. I made it there and back with NO problems. On the way back, I get pulled over in Oklahoma for going 88 in a 50.. Yes 88 in a 50.. But- I didn't get a ticket : )Thankfully the copper understood me when I said Look I just wanna get home ! And of course it probably helped that my 50 l lbs chow was sitting in the front seat barking at him ferociously.. hee hee..So the stay with my sister went well, I was ran RAGGED by my 3 year old niece.. Lord I lost 10 pounds in 1 week just chasing after her little butt!! Anyway one day me and my sis decide to go to Wally World aka.. Walmart.. My niece started to get cranky so after my sis checked out she headed to the car.. I kept her bags.. So I proceed to walk out of the door after checking out, when as usual, I was stopped by the Walmart police.. aka.. walmart door person/greeter/swat team.. I handed her my receipt( which I had in my hand ) because I FRECKIN KNEW THEY WOULD STOP ME... and she asks me where did you get those blue Walmart bags? huh?? I say( after thinking where the hell do you think I got them? ) I say politely .. Auh at the checkout? She asks what check out? huh??? Ok, so I'm trying really really hard not to go off on this senior citizen who is working at walmart- but my patience starts wearing thin.. I tell her I don't know which number register it was- so she looks at the receipt and says- In her swat team voice.. Stay right here.. Ill be back.. Im thinking " what the fuck? Im not a damn thief !!! I tell her- no- I don't have a minute- Im leaving- you fix your own bag problem..with that she just smiled and said ok.. humm maybe these people are trained in accusatory tactics to see if the customer is telling the truth.. Yeah .. Im soo stupid that I decided to bring outdated bags to a store so I can steal from them? Makes sense to me.. So be for warned- if you plan on stealing from wally world- don't bring the blue bags !!!! And god help you if a stupid cashier makes the mistake of giving you one.. I digress... Flash to two days later.. My sis, and Angela decided to go shopping in downtown Clarksville... We enter a cool ass rock and bead shop.. I find two rose quartz tea light rock holders that I had to have.. I love them.. I pay for them, I get a brown bag.. I leave the store.. We all then go into a shabby- prissy- girlie shop and start looking around.. What does the freckin store lady say to me.. NO JOKE !! Mam... i say yes? Ummm where did you get that bag?? No she didn't... Angela starts busting out laughing...I cant even look at her.. So I say back.. I got it at the rock store down the street.. She's says ooh ok, I just haven't seen that bag.. That's all,, Im like yeah I get that a lot.. and by this time Ang is laughing out load... Im sure she thought we where a bunch of weirdos.. who cares...So boys and girls, watch your bags while in Tennessee..everyone else is.. shit.
