Pizza fiasco, Aura reading, shoes and paintball.

All the above during a lunch break.

I decided to actually leave my office for lunch on Thursday afternoon. And boy, I should have stayed in.

I walked into this pizzeria for what smelled like really good pizza. I waited in line to order while the guy behind the counter cashed out a customer. He asked me what I wanted and I said 1 slice of pizza. That’s all I could afford since one slice was $3.50 and all I had was a five spot. The slice is HUGE by the way so it was worth the $3.50… If you ate it. He took my order and sliced one off, picked it up by the crust, carried it to the oven and shoved it in.

AND HE DIDN’T USE GLOVES OR WASH HIS FINGERS!

I was dumbfounded.

He came back and I handed him my money and you could see the doughy powder from the pizza on his fingers as he took my five bucks.

After a few minutes of me pacing, trying to figure out what to do or say, he got it out and used a pizza spatula to retrieve the slice from the oven. Still, you should wash your hands or something. You’re handling food!!!

I didn’t have the nerve to say anything. I mean this guy was a big beefy Italian guy that could have pounded me on the head from behind the counter.

So I just threw it away and had some chocolate for lunch.

GROSS!!!

But before that, I was able to stop at Skechers and IX Paintball.

Donna wanted some Skechers because hers were worn out. There’s a Skechers store by my office which is like a warehouse of shoes. It’s so huge its ridiculous.

I found her a pair of Bike-Spokes in lt. blue to replace her old ones.



It was buy one and get another for half off but the Bike-Spokes had tags on them that said they were excluded from the half off deal.

But I figured I’d try anyway. There were three people at the register and I looked at each of their auras. Yes, I read auras. Usually just the aura around a person’s head. (I also read Tarot for those that don’t know). But for fun, I decided to get the best read of each person based on their aura. And I did. I saw a blueish aura around this one guy. (You’re probably really thinking I’m weird right now aren’t you? –a guy who reads tarot and auras. Usually women do this. I learned from another guy.) Anyway, I picked him. I read his blueish aura as communicative, and the light blue aspect of his aura seemed relaxing or laid back. The girl, she had a harsh red about her and I decided to stay away. I think she was angered by someone she had to help.

I asked him if I could get the deal with another pair of shoes and he said, ‘like tomorrow?’ I was like, no, if I buy another one of THESE right now. He shurged and said, “sure”. So I scored and got her another pair she can wear with one of her scrub uniforms for work.



Then I sped over to the Paintball store and got five of these Gen X Global paintball pods.



You can never have enough pods.

At least I was able to get some money spending in. I haven’t bought anything cool in a while. And I just got paid!
