Ryan and I stopped at Walmart today while we were out and about.  We noticed people.

Today is New Years Eve.  There are a lot of people out buying supplies because tomorrow the world ends, as I’m sure you already know. Don’t believe me?  Just ask Eminem. 
Lots and lots of bottled water in shopping carts, people. 

Um, couple questions here…
Why would you buy bottled water if the world was going to end?  Thinking it might be hot where you’re going, maybe?

That mixed with the people who are buying party supplies, and the other people trying to get their Christmas returns and exchanges done before the world implodes tomorrow and you have one unbelievably packed store.

I’d like to take a moment here to note that there were very important people at Walmart today.  The queen was there, even. She was driving an SUV, weaving her big vehicle through the stream of people walking into and out of Walmart. They must not have recognized her because she had to honk her horn and give nasty looks.  I didn’t even realize it was her until she parked, got out of her car, and walked right into the traffic in the crosswalk.  

The queen doesn’t have to look both ways I guess. 

I thought I saw somebody else famous – at least he looked famous by the way he held his chin up in the air and looked down his nose at everybody.  His pants were falling down so I figured he was there looking for a belt.

Or a pair of better fitting pants.

And I think there might have been a field trip for the blind.  That’s the only reason I can think of for people to walk right into you and still act as if they can’t see you at all.

I guess, with it being 1-1-11 tomorrow maybe everybody is just too focused on the end of the world.  Or Oprah’s new network going live. 

Too bad I’m only 34 weeks tomorrow.  1-1-11 would be a cool day to have a baby.
