Help, I've fallen and I can't get up!

No new adoption news. Sorry kids. However, I do have another little story to share with you to make you laugh out loud (at my expense, of course).

Last Friday I went to the Grocery Pit, aka the Winn Dixie south of my house. I always always always go to Publix because the dregs of society can usually be found at the former store. I was in a hurry to pick up some potato salad for a bbq so I ran to WD. When I reached the deli area, where said potato salad could be found, I slipped on some I-don't-want-to-know-what-that-is on the floor and fell hard on my ass. And my flip flops broke, yes both of them. The top and the bottoms separated leaving me to walk, no shuffle, on just the bottoms. To make matters worse, the 80 year old Indian manager of the store is screaming at me to fill out some accident form. After about his 6th request, I barked back at him "FOR THE LOVE OF GOD I AM NOT GOING TO SUE YOU LEAVE ME ALOOOOONE!". The old dude followed me all the way to my car, which was a 20 minute trip considering I had to shuffle at a tortoise pace the whole way. My butt was bruised, but not as bad as my ego. Ay carumba!

Hope your rear end is feeling ok... that happened to me the other day... the water machine had a puddle of water next to it, I came out the 'break room door' and down I went... of course I was made to feel like I was at fault by my Assistant Store Manager... gotta love him... NOT... suffice to say that no one came to my rescue and people just looked at me and then watched me get up and watched me walk out... I was hopping mad...
