The Horribly Disgusting Tale

Now, as promised, here is my Horribly Disgusting Tale.

It IS nasty, it DOES make my skin crawl re-telling it, and I MUST share.

But, if you don't want to read more, I totally understand...



So yesterday I left work and I went to Target, because we were out of dog food. Canned dog food, and the dry stuff. I can't go home to three dogs with no food... I'll get gnawed.

Anyhoo, I'm walking through Target and not paying complete attention because I'm on my phone. I pick up the food, check out, walk to the car, and open the trunk.

I pick up the box of canned food (12 cans in a cardboard, cereal-type box) and something FLIES at me. Gah. I set the box down, turn it over and notice soemthing that looks like bugs...

I peek into the side of the cardboard box... (skin crawling all over the place now)

There are fucking MAGGOTS all inside the box of dog food.

MAGGOTS!!! TONS OF MAGGOTS!

I almost threw up right then. I ran back into the store, went over to customer service, threw down the box and said "Hi, this is infested with maggots. DO NOT TOUCH IT. I want a refund."

I guess I should have asked for the store manager or gotten something for free, but I was so disgusted I couldn't think about any of that. I used half the anti-bac stuff the customer service girl handed me.

Anyway, I got home, got the lysol, sprayed my trunk, FOUND A MAGGOT!, gagged, lysoled some more, went inside, took a shower, washed my clothes, then went BACK to my car and emptied the rest of the can of Lysol.

Last night I dreamt of bugs. I didn't sleep well - I kept waking up thinking things were crawling on me.

It will be a while before I can enter Target again. Target! Of all places! Not Wal-Mart! Not Sack-n-Save! Target!!!

ehhhhhhh
