A funny thing happened to me in the food court.  HA!  If that’s not an attention-grabbing first sentence, I don’t know what is!   Actually, I don’t know for sure when it happened, but at some point while I was shopping in the mall, I caught the fingernail on my index finger on something that made it get all annoying and jaggedy.  (‘Jaggedy’ is a new word I just made up.)  So I was irritated because I’d tried nibbling on it to smooth it—you know how you do that—and it hadn’t worked.  I sat down at one of the tables and dug around in the luggage I call my purse and was pleasantly surprised to be able to find the little pink and brown purse manicure set I got from work.  As I was sitting there, dealing with my annoying, jaggedy  nail, a group of five women walked by and one made an enthusiastic “oooh!” sound as she snatched up my open manicure set off my table.  There followed a bevy of questions wanting to know where I’d gotten it.  When it came out that I work for a company called “Big Dot of Happiness,” there were laughs and determined attestations that they would be getting manicure sets for themselves.  And they got really excited when I told them it also comes in Zebra print!  I guess that jaggedy nail wasn’t such a bad thing after all.
