more stories

I've been thinking that this blog needs more stories.


For example... guess what happened to me today!?!

It all started in a show home about a month ago. I had noticed some kind of rock in the shape of a star fish. Really nice decoration. I though, hmmm... i wonder where they bought that. Then another showed up in Lincolns apartment that he rented. Well still... I'm left wondering... where did they get that? So, I am out shopping the other day for some colorful things to add to my apartment and sure enough... there they are. But this stinking 6 inch around star rock thing is 30 bucks. I found something else at the store but decided to pass on the $30 star fish.

Carrying on the store owner showed me around because he was the only one in there that spoke English. We just made some friendly conversation as we toured around the store, then I was ready to check out.

So he brings me to have someone else in the office "ring me thru" and he disappears. As I'm paying for my stuff... the manager shows up and hands me the star fish.... "Sin costo". Free :-). I didn't even tell him I liked that star and he wasn't even with me when I picked it up to check the price during my walk around.

Free... :-). See what happens when i put my mind to something. wow! More stories to come. i promise.

Now i'm going to bed. Another big day of work tomorrow.
