Friday the Scaredy Cat | 
This is me right now. I went to Barnes & Noble today to take advantage of their 50% sale. As I was stepping up onto the sidewalk two big guys busted through the bookstore‘s doors yelling and shoving each other. One accused the other of stealing and they kept this up as they rounded the corner of the building. I‘ve rarely been around physical violence so it was all shocking. My nerves couldn‘t take it so I went right home sans books. #BarnesNoble
britt_brooke OMG. That‘s ridiculous. Sorry you had to see that. I would‘ve left too. 6y
Julsmarshall I‘m so sorry they ruined your trip 😥 6y
RavenLovelyReads Yikes! You‘d expect that at a bar not a bookstore. Hope your evening gets better :) 6y

CouronneDhiver Oh Laura... that‘s awful 🙁 I‘m sorry that they messed up your shopping trip. Maybe try again tomorrow instead? So ridiculous 6y
Lreads @britt_brooke @Julsmarshall @RavenLovelyReads @CouronneDhiver You are all very nice. I understand being in public means all sorts of things can happen but at the bookstore? And it‘s the only bookstore around so it‘s not like I can go anywhere else. 😔 (edited) 6y
RavenLovelyReads No- this shouldn‘t happen at a bookstore. I can‘t imagine walking into that alone, with a friend, or my children. It should have been handled in a different way. 6y
CouronneDhiver People act so dumb sometimes. It shouldn‘t leak into an intelligent place like a bookstore. 😂 I think those two got lost... took a wrong turn and missed the gentleman‘s club or something 6y
Lreads @RavenLovelyReads I agree with you. Even if I was with my husband I would have still been rattled although he can usually help me feel safe again. 6y
Lreads @CouronneDhiver Dumb people are not something I go to the bookstore to find! The fact that this Barnes & Noble is attached to a large mall doesn‘t help because so many people use the bookstore as a highway to get to parking lots. I also don‘t think those two men qualify as gentleman! 😑 6y
Linear Hmm, is there something wrong with me. That i would have simply side stepped them and continued on with my walk into the store for books? Where i lived before in Savannah, the B and N was attached to a mall. And yeah most people would just walk through to use the cafe and get into the rest of the mall. It was kind of annoying going through foot traffic. 6y
Lreads @Linear I can only speak for myself. I have severe Anxiety. 6y
