I should have kept the driver...

OMG! I soooooooooo should have kept the driver!

Last night, I got directions from the desk clerks on how to get to this mall that has a theater inside. They informed me though, make sure I go to the "back" of the mall, otherwise, I will never find the theater. The way they made it sound, there would be an entrance to JUST the theater part. NO. WRONG. I drove around and around. All there seemed to be were very large department stores with entrances and then some random entrances (that all looked the same). Well, after driving around this mall for like 15 minutes, I finally decided to just park and go in. Obviously I was misguided. So, I went in, had plenty of time before the movie, grabbed some food...I had so much time, I just started shopping...I had a blast. I think people think I am from another country with my accent...LMAO! Honestly...You know, like when you hear some very different accent, and they are from other countries, obviously, you ask..."where are you from?" Well, I get asked that alot here. LMAO! People go out of their way to come over to me, and say, "Where are you from..." LMAO! "I first ask why?" Then they reply with, "I hear that southern accent, I love it..." LMAO! Tooooooo FUNNY!

Anyway, on with the story...I should have kept the driver. After the movie, I walked out and tried to find the exit I needed to take. OMG. I so didn't pay enough attention to where I walked in at. Not good. Soon, I was walking around, not able to breathe. Mascara streaming down my face, mixed with tears. I had lost my car! OMG. I finally waived this one security guy down...He came over. His only advice to me..."breathe, lady..." I guess with my hysterical reaction, my accent, and being soooooooooo cold, he couldn't understand a word I was saying. LOL! Too funny! He said, "lady...where are you from, anyway..." Then he proceeded to me with, "you have to calm down..." I was frantic. I was saying, "omg...my car is missing...I think I am gonna DYYYYE!" He asked if I had some sort of condition that would cause me to die. I immediately burst into laughter. He then got on the radio and asked his supervisor if he could take me around to find my car...

Well, finally as we are driving around, I see the Wal-Green's across the highway that was near where I first turned in. I started jumping around the truck and I think this dude thought I was psycho or something...LOL!

He got me to my car...All is good now...

Obviously that security guard needed a crash course in Carlaisms. I'm glad you found the car though. I've lost mine before and that's not fun.
