I don't know if it was good fortune or bad, but when we pulled into Publix this afternoon a large monstrosity was available in the buggy return area.
Clearly we've given up on trying to look cool, particularly in the rather nice part of town we happened to be in since we both jumped on it. Maybe it was the heat, the constant fuss Lilli was in most of the weekend, or the effect of being around way too many shoppers out for tax free weekend but we thought it was pretty much the coolest thing ever and jumped all over it, holding up several other shoppers from returning their buggies and almost getting backed over as we tried to spin this thing around and head into the store. If you think the turn radius on this thing is awful you would be very correct.
She thought she was hot stuff for about the first 5 minutes and then the excitement wore off and she would've preferred to be facing us. So for the rest of our grocery experience the Fuss was on but at least with her facing forward it was directed to the rest of the customers at Publix, and since our Boat was already in their way we might as well add a whiny Toddler to their experience.
And to make it even better, when we downloaded our pictures we noticed this lovely couple in the background. That guy used to be one of my semi-bosses a few jobs ago. Naturally in the obnoxious excitement of Lilli's first giant Buggy ride we didn't even notice them leaving the grocery store as we snapped pictures, made race car noises, drove her around in the middle of traffic like she was an actual car and just generally made total fools of ourselves. Can't imagine why they didn't say hello to us.
