Ugh. I hate people!
So, I smell like smoke now.
Why?
Because as I was walking out of an office building, I was apparently a few minutes behind a smoker who was smoking in the non-smoking section, and decided that, when done with his or her cigarette, to toss it, still lit, in the planter bed full of last year's dry mulch, on a windy day.
By the time I got there, it was a fire the size of a shoe.
Then, I tried to put it out with MY shoe. (Side note: I now need new shoes.) While 4 men watched me smack my shoe into the planter, by the way, like I was playing whackamole or something
After about 30 seconds, where i got it under control, but smoldering, I remembered that, in my other hand, I had some water left in my water bottle, and poured the rest out to drench it.
People suck.
That is all.
Re: Ugh. I hate people!
Oh I would be pissed to.
And someone would be buying me a new pair of shoes. Do they not know who did it?

Sounds like a real genius you were following.
Your poor shoes.
I have to admit I laughed out loud at the whackamole reference.
Ugh that sucks. Sorry you smell like smoke and have to buy new shoes.
I also do not like the smokers that can't wait until they get OUTSIDE to light up. We have a designated smoking area, that is covered and protected from the wind. You will have no problems walking 10 feet to that area and then light up. Ugh now the whole vestibule smells like smoke. Blech.

I did too. Ugh...I hate people for you Kathy. I'd find out who it was and make them buy you a new pair of shoes.

Whackamole! Haha!!
I'm sorry about your shoes and that people suck. People who smoke don't understand how nasty that smell is to people who don't smoke.
