I was in Wal-Mart buying a large bag of Purina for my dog Tiny and was in line to check out.
A woman behind me asked if I had a dog.....Duh!
I was feeling a bit crabby so on impulse, I told her no,
I was starting the Purina Diet again, although I probably
shouldn't because I'd ended up in the hospital last time,
but that I'd lost 50 lbs before I awakened in an ICU with tubes
coming out most of my orifices and IV's in both arms.
Her eyes about bugged out of her head. I went on and on
with the bogus diet story and she was totally buying it.
I told her that it was an easy, inexpensive diet and that
the way it works is to load your pockets or purse with Purina
nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry.
The package said the food is nutritionally complete so
I was going to try it again.
I have to mention here that practically everyone in the line
was by now enthralled with my story, particularly a tall guy behind her.
Horrified, she asked if something in the dog food had poisoned
me and was that why I ended up in the hospital. I said no.....
I'd been sitting in the street licking my butt when a car hit me.
I thought the tall guy was going to have to be carried out the door.
