b and i went shopping today, for hours in the rain. i didn't need anything in specific, but she was looking for a birthday present for au. she ended up getting her this cool hot chocolate frother thingy with 2 matching mugs, but it wasnt before hurricane ma tore through 4th street in berkeley.
at a costume jewelry shop, i managed to drop a ring with a very large plastic diamond on it. the diamond fell off. not 15 min later, at the crate and barrel outlet, i opened a box containing some ceramic coasters and one fell out, shattering as it hit the ground.
both stores were really cool about it. i offered to pay for the carnage i caused, but both salespeople who i 'fessed up to told me it wasn't a big deal. pretty nice.
however, after one breaks 2 unpurchased items, crate and barrel is the wrong place to to be shopping. all those towers of wineglasses. think they would be as forgiving if i knocked one of those displays over? b sent me to the as-is furniture section in the back so i couldn't do any more damage. she's smart. she knows that you can't take me anywhere. for everyone's safety, keep me around big heavy things i can't drop.
