I had the babies out with me this afternoon. Went to pick my husband up from work and let them ride along. I decided to make a quick pit stop at Petsmart and grab some wax worms for a treat. So, Figment stayed in the truck with my husband and Fluffy stayed on my shoulder to run into Petsmart with me.
You would think I walked in with a ski mask on. I can't believe the reaction from all of these people who are standing there in the store with their dogs.
First, I went over to the area in fish where they keep crickets and worms. I was peeking inside worm containers when a girl came out from the back room and asked if she could help. She saw Fluffy and says "Oh! Food for your dragon? Great. What can I do?" Told her I was just checking the condition of the wax worms and she volunteered to check in back to see if there were any fresher containers. While I waited, there is a couple looking at fish and whispering and giggling to each other while they stared. No biggie. The clerk came back out and told me they didn't have any more in the back, so I took the better container of worms and made my way to the reptile section. As I was leaving, she called after me that my dragon is beautiful. All right. So, I was just paranoid about the couple and Fluffy and I are good.
We took a quick peek at the baby dragons - way too small to be up for sale, but at least the cage looked clean and I felt pretty good. So we headed to the register. Two were open. One had like four people waiting and the other had one. Guess which line I got in? Quicker and it avoids having my little angel near a number of dogs I don't know.
Well... I was shocked at the comments coming from people while I paid for her worms. One lady was saying how she can't believe that they allow people to bring "things like that" into the store! Yes! As she stands there with her ratty little dog in her arms! The customer at the register whispered something to the clerk and she clearly told her "Oh, yeah. Some people even bring their snakes in here. THAT really freaks me out,"
Wow! Petsmart sells reptiles right there in the store. They had two beardies that anyone could have bought right at that moment, but customers are shocked because someone is walking through the store with one.
No matter how long I live, I will NEVER understand people. :roll:
