Sometimes people are ridic...

...culous.

Yesterday I went to the grocery store (three times actually). During the first two visits, I wore the same outfit. Long shorts, a navy blue t-shirt, and these sweet shoes I bought last week. I coveted these shoes my entire freshman year of college. My best friend that year wore them all the time. I wanted to buy them but they were too expensive. So, I lived without them until I found them last week in the clearance section of Aldo Kids shoes. My feet are small enough to wear the largest kid size so I ended up scoring the shoes for $7.00. So anyway, I was rockin' my new shoes in Macey's Grocery Store yesterday and this woman came up to me. Here's what went down:

Woman: Oh my goodness, your shoes are so cute.

Jenna: Thanks!

Jenna continues to walk but the woman stops in front of her blocking her escape all the while still staring at her shoes.

Woman: They are SO cute. Wow. Are they Uggs?

Jenna: Nope, they aren't. I don't actually know what brand they are but they aren't Uggs.

The woman continues to stare. Jenna looks the woman up and down to see that she is well dressed and quite pretty for her age. (Of course, Utah county is full of pretty older women.)

Woman: So where did you get them?

Jenna: Aldo. They have stores in Salt Lake and Park City.

Woman: Hmm, oh.

Woman stares at shoes.

Woman: They are so cute.

Woman stares into Jenna's eyes.

Jenna: Do you want me to take them off and give them to you?

Woman: Well yes. That would be so nice of you.

Jenna: I'm joking.

Woman: I'm not, that would be the charitable thing to do.

Jenna: What?

Woman: Those are cute shoes and I want them. Give them to me.

Jenna: Um...

Woman: Give them to me!

The woman reaches down to grab Jenna's feet. Jenna tries to run but is frozen with fear. The woman looks up and Jenna takes the chance to swing a punch.

Jenna wakes up two hours later in a church parking lot. She has a black eye and no shoes.

Jenna: What happened to me?

Jenna sees that her shoes are missing.

Jenna: So did I punch her or what?

The End.

I still haven't punched anyone in the face or have I?

Love,
Jenna

P.S. I want my shoes back.

This can't be a true story. If it is, let me know what she looks like and I will send my posse after her.
