Prank Calls and Flash Mobs

I know it has been an eternity again, but I guess that is kind of an underlying theme of this blog. Also, after working so long in a grocery store, things tend to get less and less noteworthy and everything starts turning into a blur of monotonous scanner sounds....Lets hope I'm not to that point just yet. But within the last few months I had my first prank call AND my first flash mob. Seeing as the Creamery is located right in the freshman dorms, I would expect more of this kind of behavior. Unfortunately, I do not have much to tell from the prank call. The sound was all muffled because the kid was on speaker and all I could hear was laughing whenever he said something. I was quite distraught that I was unable to hear what was so funny. I'm sure it was unbelievably clever, whatever it was. But I do have a much better tale for this flash mob. So it is a day like any other at the good ole Creamery on Ninth, and as I am sitting at my register bored out of my mind, I take a glance down the produce/cereal isle and see this girl holding a red cabbage up to her face like she is smelling it. Completely intrigued by this, I tell my co-worker Katie to look and we both sneakily stare at this girl, trying to figure out what she is up to. Then I reluctantly turn my attention from the cabbage path girl over there to the customers that are in my line trying to talk to me, and the guy laughs and says "Looks like you guys have got a flash mob." Still thinking about how weird that girl is and not really paying attention to him, I look up and ask him what he is talking about. He points down that same isle and I realize that everyone (including cabbage girl!) is frozen. There were about 10 or 15 youngins doing the whole flash mob thing, frozen in various shopping positions. I was just too caught up in that girl sniffin' on cabbage to realize.
