So Friday night I was all prepared for a night-in with the “Real Housewives” (Micah was out of town on a fishing trip leaving me to my own devices) when my friends convinced my to go to a party with them. Since they were offering to pick me up and to run me by the store to get a tasty beverage, I decide to get out there and live a little. We went to Safeway and I grabbed a jumbo bottle of red wine for us to share. When I went through the checkout line I requested paper since the week before I’d had a bottle of wine bust through a plastic bag and roll down the parking lot as I was headed to my car. Luckily, the wine bottle didn’t shatter, but I wasn’t taking any chances.

Of course, I had to use the restroom on my way out so I took my paper bag of wine in with me and sat it on the floor. I started my business and mid-stream was horrified to see red wine start seeping out of the bag and all over the floor.  Oh shoot. Did I just jinx myself or what? Just as I was picking the bag up and trying to figure out what the heck happened, the bathroom door opened and an employee walked in. Seeing my guilty expression she blurted out, “I’m just trying to pee!”. “That’s what I was trying to do too!” I exclaimed.

She ran for a mop (and probably to report to her manager that there was a crazy lady in the bathroom guzzling red wine from a paper bag) while I threw the bag and ruined wine into the trash. Not knowing what else to do I made sure the bathroom clean-up was under way (no, they really did not want my help) and headed out into the store for another bottle. I decided that I should probably buy a different brand just to be safe. This time I declined the bag and bathroom break to head straight for the car clutching the bottle of wine tightly to my chest to prevent any mishaps. All the while shaking my head and wondering, “Who does this happen to????!!” So random.
