today was weird

mostly it was weird because of the snapple (and uh sheri reminding me about stuck lips. i thought i had buried that memory.)

the question is, where will the photo of us with the snapple and the snapple people end up? we may very well be targets now for some nefarious plot. i should have stepped out of the photo muttering something about cameras stealing souls. (but the snapple lady had so kindly pointed out that my pink shirt matched the snapple product. i was lulled, but remained suspicious. and i don't think i was smiling either.)

okay, so there's the picture-taking and then there's the giving-away-of-cases-of-chilled-snapple. that's weird. and jim and ricardo lugging the case back to the library. weird(os).

and to top of the weirdness, my snapple cap disappeared in a shower of exploding strawberry snapple (with antioxidants!). i felt pretty horrible as i watched walter mop up the mess i'd made. i must have thanked him three times. weird too was that the other person who entered the hallway right after the spillage happened, was pretty nice to me about it all. she said things like, "it happens" and "don't worry about it". i must have been visibly traumatized. my lovely (free) snapple (with antioxidants!) all over the floor.

soooo maybe at the time of the Great Snapple Incident, i hadn't quite just been innocently standing there...i may have perhaps been trying to do too many things at once while juggling two beverages. if i relive the slo-mo falling of the snapple bottle, i believe i saw it land straight on its end, causing the lid to jettison into the air (and into another portal dimension). i must say, the snapple had a very pleasant fragrance. like a field of strawberries. on a day when strawberries are in season. whenever that day or season might be.

oh yeah, the other weird thing was the abandoned cooler dealio that was in the middle of the sidewalk on, i think, pine street. one of those cooler cases. perfect for storing cases of strawberry snapple (or the random coworker who sings random jingles that randomly include your name).

and now i have a mysterious mark on my hand. i don't know how i got it. like snapple stigmata or something. maybe that's where the snapple lid went...

weird.
