Every once in a while I think about something that I have purchased and I have no idea why I did it.

The other night while Shaun and I were driving from Dallas to Nashville, we stopped at a truck stop for gas. Due to the weather change, and my constant wearing of flip-flops, my feet have been abnormally dry lately. After driving for several hours, around one in the morning, with the air conditioning blowing on my bare feet, they began to hurt and crack. I walked into the truck stop and bought a bottled water, a Powerbar and walked to the counter.

I realized that I had thought about getting some sort of lotion to put on my feet before we stopped, but had forgotten to look for it while I was getting my other items. I looked at the end of the counter and saw this. “Udderly Smooth Udder Cream”.

“That will work, and it’s only a dollar.”, I think.

Now I have this tube of udder cream.

And the troubling part to me is not that I now own a tube of udder cream. The troubling part to me is that I actually purchased “Udderly Smooth Udder Cream” from a truck stop in Arkansas. And not only that, I purchased “Udderly Smooth Udder Cream” from a truck stop in Arkansas for a dollar… off the counter… of a truck stop in Arkansas.

What’s wrong with me? And why is Udderly Smooth Udder Cream for sale on the counter for a dollar at a truck stop in Arkansas?
