Shocked

I got shocked by a shopping trolley today.

Here's how it happened.

I was at Giant with mom, and as usual, me, being juvenile, went to grab the trolley.
There's nothing special to that, its what I do all the time when I'm supermarketing. Today i decided that every turn i make or every corner i would negotiate, i would "drift" my shopping cart. So after about 20 solid "power slides", i got tired of it, and when i reached over to some shelf, my forearm touched the metal part of the trolley, and there was this "snap" sound and the next thing i knew, i was jumping around the aisle shaking my arm. Ouch...

apparently, my power slides were so solid that they generated enough charge to zap myself. hmmm.

uh, in case any mothers read this, happy mother's day!
