Hit by my own cart.

[Sightings Reporter]

I ran in to my favorite grocery store today to pick up some essentials for today and tomorrow. (Eggs and bananas. If we don't have those in the house, ain't nobody happy!)

Anyway, I picked up my items then headed to the SCO where I proceeded to scan my items. Standing in front of the SCO, my cart was to my right, as close to the SCO as I could get it and slightly touching my hip, so not sticking out bothering people.

I was minding my own business when, OUCH! The kid behind me rammed hit cart in to my cart so my cart hit me in the hip, knee and ankle. It hurt, a lot. The kid looked at me and uttered what I can only describe at the crappiest of apologies ever offered, "Oh, shit, sorry.", and walked away. The voice tone used was not one of sincerity, but one of, "Dude lady, get out of my way".

When I use the term kid, I mean, teenager. He was there with his dad. Did dad say anything? Nope. Was there a reason the kid hit my cart other than total carelessness? Nope? For some reason, I really wanted to burst in to tears too and that made me even more angry.

Thanks for listening!

what a jerk.

I would have reacted a lot worse than that; probably due to being a cranky cow at the best of times, but right now, I'm PMSing. O.o After all, I once shoved a heelying kid over after one ran into me, right into the bad leg I had at the time.

Hope you feel better soon; those trolleys are flipping lethal and really hurt when people play dodgems with them. O.o And that father needs a slap.

Trolleys are very dangerous at high speeds.

Why am I thinking you should have done something like the "distraction" in the zoo scene in Uncercover Blues?
