Today Brian was on the hunt for yet another pair of slacks, apparently he doesn't have the PERFECT pair for one of his sports jackets. He seriously has more clothes than I do, but that isn't the point. We went to Nordstrom, Macy and then our last stop was Joseph A. Banks. I was so thirsty I took the girls (I just had evelyn and leland) to get a drink. Well of course they wanted one too, so I got them each a fruit punch (bad choice in hind sight). Then off we go to meet Brian in the store. All was going well until Evelyn decided to get out of the front part of the double stroller. Leland was sitting a little to far back in the back seat and without Evelyn their to even out the weight the stroller went flying backwards with Leland in it. The worst part was that I had place the 2 fruit punch's in the cup holders at the top (you know to make sure there were no accidents) and they went flying to the ground and both of them spilt EVERYWHERE!!!!! Red fruit punch is now on the floor all over the carpet. I was frozen for a second and then the manager came over and was obviously pissed! I felt so so bad and embarrassed, I just kept on apologizing and he literally said nothing. And when he did speak he said "you know it is not smart to bring drinks in a clothing store" like I didn't already know that. I tried to help him clean it up, but it just wasn't cutting it, he only had like 4 paper towels and I needed about 40. I felt so bad, but at that point I was almost in tears and I had to get out of there, by the time I got out of the store I was crying pretty hard. I just couldn't help it, the tears just kept coming. A minute later Brian was out of the store and had basically told the guy he would not be spending any money in there today.
Don't get me wrong we both felt horrible, but the guy was a complete jerk to me and that is probably not the best way to get someones business. At one point during this whole thing a girl that was there with her fiance( she obviously felt bad for me) said "Ya know worse things could happen." Yea like what if we had been right next to one of the clothing racks and it had gotten all over all the clothes. That would have been an expensive trip to Jos. A. Banks.
So this is your warning: always always chose water and NEVER spill fruit punch in Jos. A. Banks, they really don't like that.
