just when you thought the site was a one hit wonder like that day you ate good and went to the gym after your new years resolution, its back! todays adventure takes us to the verizon store where i got to meet patrick. now my sole purpose of the trip was to get a new phone because mine is falling apart, but fate stepped in and fates name is patrick. after having the sales person, named keith who much resembled walt frazier, help me get the phone and try to sell me on every upgrade/add-on possible, I was passed over to the phone pick-up area. by the way verizon is horribly run and ass-backwards in how they do anything. sit in there for 15 minutes and you will see at least 7 customers get fed up with one of the many employees. its amazing the company can sustain life, let alone the employees. so back to patrick, who resembled a shorter christopher walken with a mustache, but just as odd. patrick and i and got to enjoy about 45 minutes together of him awkwardly talking about my phone, right down to the plastic bags that the parts in the box come in; saying "they don't make bags like this anymore, very strong plastic." it was a great lesson in plastic bags, but after waiting for tech support to switch my phone book over for a half hour, i was getting impatient. finally another woman had to go speed things up for me and patrick acted as thought he didn't even know me. i left the store a little hurt, but certainly better for meeting patrick. thank you verizon, and thank you for using strong plastic bags to protect you products, america can sleep a little better.
on the way home i figured i would stop by target because why stop the madness so soon, i can just catch up on sleep tomorrow after wearing myself down today. i picked up the following items: drain-o, dish soap and plastic pitcher for drinks. at this point i looked at the items and realized, whoever rings me up will think i am going to mix drain-o and dish soap in a plastic pitcher for some sort of sick pleasure. so before i went to the register i stopped by the movie section, and really topped things off by getting a copy of the shoot em up new release 'revolver', to ensure people know their is something wrong with me. side note: the movie is great and the drain-o/soap is delicious
