If I Had a Hammer

I attempted to use my left hand as a hammer.

Not the smartest thing I’ve ever done.
The New Employee Health Care Plan
September 21, 2009
I was in the need of some retail therapy last week so I hit up some stores and did some shopping after work one night. I decided on my purchases (a little black dress, some jeans, a sweater coat and a new handbag) and took them to the register.
A young woman started ringing me up. As she is touching my clothes, this is the conversation we have:
Salesgirl: “I threw up this morning”
Me: “Uh….um that’s too bad”
Salesgirl: “I have a fever now…” She proceeds to LEAN OVER THE COUNTER. “don’t I feel warm?”
Me: “uh……..uh huh….feel better”
I jetted out of there SO FAST and immediately threw my clothes in pile to be washed.
I feel like I should have at least gotten a co-pay for that.
Coffee is the new Black?

Someone I met briefly at work a few months ago saw me on the street tonight and stopped me to say hello. I marveled at his ability to recognize me out of the context of work and he responded:
“Are you kidding? Blackberry in one hand, green Starbucks travel mug in the other. I’d recognize you ANYWHERE!”
Hmm….there may be such a thing as being TOO predictable.
