I'm feeling better about everything at work. I'm beginning to learn things. It's not difficult, I just don't have anything to practice with.

Last night was a very interesting night at the store. Remember, every day is a full moon around here. First, the Coca-Cola man came in inquiring about a lady that he had hit earlier. He hit her and she took off. How weird.

Then, my mother and I went next door to eat (my brother-in-law's restaurant is about 6 feet away from the store). There was a woman sitting at a table by herself. She looked like she was about to fall out of her chair. The waitress said that she acted normal when she came in. She drank one beer and then started saying crazy things. They think she may have taken some kind of pills. My brother-in-law didn't know what to do about her. He didn't want to call the police, because they would just take her to jail. He finally decided to see if he could take her home. She just looked at him and turned her head away. He wanted a woman to go with him. I went and got my sister to get her to go. When he asked her again if he could take her home she said "F__ you!" Then my sister starting talking to her and said "Let's go outside and talk." The woman kept dropping F-bombs. Finally the woman went out and got in the passenger seat of her late model Mercedes. My brother in law again tried to talk to her. More F-bombs. He then decided to call the police. When they got there they tried to talk to her. They called the paramedics because they thought she may have had something wrong with her. When the EMT tried to take her blood pressure, she punched him in the nose. He refused to try to help her. The police decided to arrest her. When they tried to put handcuffs on her, she tried to get away. She ended up going to jail anyway. Usually when the police come on our property, it kills business. Last night it helped business, because everyone was wanting to know what was going on. I'm kind of curious as to what today will bring.

My mother and I are going to Huntsville today. She needs to get some last minute items for her trip next week to New York and Boston. I hope we can find some good buys.

What a story! I wonder what the deal with the lady was... Was she older?? Glad it brought more people into eat!
