It was three weeks till our wedding, and I thought I would give my love a rose in recognition of the day. There's only one flower shop in town, so that's where I went. The first thing I heard when I walked in the door was, "Ok, shut the door." I stopped and stared stupidly at the door with my bleary morning eyes, and reached out to close it. I discovered that there was no closer on the door, and also it jammed into the carpet as it opened. Not exactly a professional setup. Around that time I noticed a creature at my feet which I took to be a hairless cat. At least I knew why she wanted the door closed. I went on in and ordered the rose. I didn't have any cash, so I pulled out my card. She said, "You're using a card? It's only $4.50." I told her that I didn't have any cash, so she added a $.33 fee. In summary, I got a rose, so that was good. However, I left with a distinct feeling that I wasn't wanted. None of the incidentals would have really mattered if the lady had been moderately empathetic. In the future I will gladly spend time and gas trying to find a florist who doesn't mind...
