Trisha and I were perusing the hardware section of Wal Mart this evening when this shadow came out of nowhere. Everything went dark. All I could see was the reflection on the hammers and screwdrivers of the overhead lights.
Unaware of what was happening but knowing I had to act fast, I told Trish to hang on to my belt loop so we wouldn’t get seperated.
After I had taken care of the basic survival steps, I turned my focus to the source of the problem.
Folks, it was a damn monster.
I swear, it was a man so large, I’m sure God couldn’t even lift his spirits. He was popping biscuits in his mouth like they were Tic Tacs.
And the body hair…Oh my God…
I think it’d be a safe bet to say he was a “stand in” in the movie “Gorillas of the Midst”.
For crying outloud, he was wearing a hula hoop for a pinkie ring.
Thankfully he let us squeeze by without any harm.
I’m working all weekend but I hope you lazy people are enjoying yours…blah, blah, blah.

He probably smelled cheese. Glad you got by him without any harm. Have fun working…I’ll be thinking about you while I’m laying on my ass watching tv!
