I can not after several minutes of walking up and down several isles find anything remotely related. So I begin the walk to find a store employee, ask for the item I'm searching for only to find it was in the very section I had been looking. She promptly gets on her walkie talkie and speaks to another individual working in that department. "Great" I think now two people are involved. So much for getting out of here undetected. So we walk over to the section for animal supplies. We meet up with the guy from that department. Who in his eagerness to be helpful proceeds to tell me where on the shelf the horse liniment is. He then goes even further in his quest to be overly helpful. "and over here is the dewormer and down here are all the treats." To which I simply reply "thanks" I'll just look at the liniments." Hoping secretly to not have to go into any further explanation. But alas no. Said super employee goes on to once again insist that "the dewormer and treats are down here and you will want o get some of these" Leaving me no out. "Uh well you see I'm a runner. I have a knee injury & it was suggested to me to try some horse liniment to help with pain & healing" As I'm thinking OK great now here comes the barrage of questions about my crazy treatment plan. But no much to my surprise. Employee number one jumps to my rescue with "Oh yeah, that's a really great idea. That stuff is great. but you probably don't need a dewormer do you?' My response "uh well hopefully no." So I choose my potion and thank them for their help and head to the register to make my purchase thankful that this experience is over and secretly thinking to myself. If my brother (it was his idea) was here right now he'd be on the floor in stitches/ Thanks TJ. Oh and by the way in case you are curious this stuff does help. I haven't been able to run in about a week and a half but I have applied it when my knee starts to ache and shortly after the cool menthol sensations sets in the ache goes away. Can hardly wait to try it on run. Perhaps later today I'll take it for a test drive. Although I prefer to run first thing in the morning Tim's work schedule has precluded that for today so maybe after breakfast. me & the kids will sneak out for a short little tun to ease back into things. Of course that will depend on my being able to get the stroller out of the garage and that folks is an entirely different post.
