    Stuff that just happens

    Ok, this is a new "category" i'm starting here, and all I can do is hope that it will be EASY to find once I post this first entry rofl.  I know some years ago I created one called "Random Thoughts"... but I don't see it on or listed under the "BLOG" heading Confused.  Anyway, here goes...
     
    Saturday 9/1/07
    Had to run an errand this morning, so got my butt out and headed for the pharmacy downtown to pick up some stuff.  The place closes at 1pm, and I guess I got there about 10:30?  As I pulled into the almost vacant parking lot, there was a city cop car barely rolling along.  Now, the entrance to this place is at the rear of the building, and being "downtown" things are pretty dead there on weekends.  Got out of my car near the door (at the same time, that cop car raced across the lot toward a dumpster), and two of the employees were standing outside with... ummmm... strange looks on their faces.  When we all walked inside, I asked what was wrong and they replied "We just almost got robbed".  I guess the cop was JUST getting the call as I was pulling in, cuz nobody else was in the place when I got there.  They said a guy walked in with a shirt over his head, hand in pocket as if pointing a gun, and threatened their lives.  So I"m realizing at this point that all this came down just MOMENTS ago.  Had I not gone back into my apartment before leaving for a "soda to go", I'd have been in there with them all Surprised.  After listening to their story, it seems they kept their cool and handled the whole thing real well.  Yup... funny how things happen.
     
    After that, I decided to "buck up" and do something I'd been putting off... go out and buy a pair of shoes Crying .  Not just ANY shoes... I had to replace my "almost favorite pair".
     (INSERTED MENTAL NOTE:  Argh... just saved this as a draft so I could get a pic out of files to add here,
    but when I came back to edit this, couldn't find the category I had created for this called "TODAY".  I swear....Angry )
     
    ...ANYWAYYYY since having a knee replacement over two years ago I haven't been able to wear most shoes.  Now, sure, I'd rather not wear any at all, but my employer kinda frowns on that.   So since the surgery, I've had two pairs of sneakers the knee will tolerate for an entire day.  And one of them is a pair of black high top sneakers (no name brand, just "generic").  And lately, some of the seams have come a bit undone.  What would YOU think if you walked into your local government office and a "specialist" came out to talk to you about your problem wearin a pair of them?  lmao...
    Now I don't know about you, but when I have a "favorite" pair of shoes, I get pretty attached to them.  It's like a relationship... like a comfortable friend.  My "pony"... my car, is the same way.  ALL my cars have been like that (but they are another story).  Suffice it to say, I was not looking forward to "shoe shopping" to find another pair to replace these.  Guess I got lucky (yeah, yeah, I know "luck" is bull lol) but I found some at the second store I went to.  Only these are "genuine" Converse high tops, but they'll do.
    I'm thinking about having a "practice" memorial service for my old ones in about an hour.  I mean, I can't throw them out... and I"m sure I'll still wear them.  Just not to work Sad .
