People of Walmart

Yesterday I broke a cardinal rule of bedrest. I got out of bed! Gasp!

Little Cricket needed some more Tylenol, and bandaids, so we trekked it up to the local Wal-Mart Super Center.... Needless to say, there is always an adventure in store there.

Unfortunately there was no My Amigo wheelchairs to use, but I figured since we were just grabbing two things, I would be ok, just walking. Well, this is Wal-Mart so that was my second mistake.

We had to return something really fast, and were the second people in line. I was excited thinking we would be there two mins tops. Third mistake... Turns out the man working customer service was, well, a chatter. And as it also turns out, so was the lady in front of us in line. Pretty sure she cashed every check she ever had, paid every bill known to mankind, and then proceeded to send money orders to her entire extended family.

At this point Cricket had about had it, Hubs was desperately trying to keep her from diving head first out of the cart, and away from the "kindish" ladies behind us trying to carry on an adult conversation with her for a half hour, and I? Well... I was trying really hard to stay upright, not go into full on labor, and not pass out.

Just as we thought the lady in front of us was done, her daughter came up with a basket full of groceries she wanted her to buy. Oh did I mention that the kid in line behind a couple people behind us was having a complete melt down? He was screaming at the tv to turn the camera off, that it wasn't allowed to tape him, and was sobbing that it wasn't listening to him.

About a half hour later, we departed with our gift card, just before I snapped on the people in front of me...

Then as we got our things and were using the self checkout (because let's face it, I couldn't handle another person) we discover a sign that says: "Warning this register runs really (crossed out to say EXTREMELY) slow sometimes. Good luck!" Good luck? Really? Really?

Shoulda stayed in bed...
