My Eyes Work Too Well

IKEA Trauma

Ive been meaning to write about my day spent in San Diego last week on Friday. So i'm a little late, anyways here it goes- My GF had a follow up doctors appointment in the morning which lasted about 15 minutes and afterwards we had breakfast then decided to just go looking around in a store or two. I thought, sure no problem it'll be good to walk off the breakfast. The first place we went to was Ikea, I knew I was in trouble when the first thing that greeted me was a map of the floor plan. At first I was okay, the place was spacious, room to be moving about. But then the ceiling seemed to get lower and the rooms got smaller. I didn't mind at first but then all of a sudden there were people all over. Where in the heck did all these people come out of? And then I saw one of two things I probably wasn't meant to see. As we were walking through an area, a lady was with a young child at her side, he was pushing the cart, while she walked behind. I was about 20 to 30 feet behind when she casually turned around and I saw her holding a baby at waist level with a scarf covering the baby. And as I slowly got closer I noticed one side of her was showing, her left boob was showing a little. Her blouse was pulled low exposing most of it, but she had the bottom of her shirt over the babies face, she was casually feeding the baby. I swear I saw movement of her veins in unison with the milk being pumped out. At the same time it looked like a flag rippling in the breeze. It looked like a stretched i.v. bag on its last drops of juice! Then another thought hit me- oh man! the baby is practically at her waist, that means her stretched boob is on its last drops also! It couldnt become more interesting of a day after that right? Well, in the section where there is plastic containers for the kitchen, my gf asked me about a plastic bowl, when I turned around to respond, I saw a lady, about 60 years tops, standing behind her in the most see through white blouse i've ever seen. While I was trying to answer my gf, I kept seeing the ladies A cup breast and about an inch round dark areolas with pencil top erasers for nipples just pointing at me! I dont remember the conversation I had with my gf about the containers. By this time the confined space was getting to me and I was trying to lead my gf out, but she kept looking around and finding stuff interesting to look at. I was about to have a legit panic/anxiety attack of some sort. I don't mind small confined spaces, but with a lot of people there it was getting to me. During the drive home, I told the GF about the two ladies, she laughed at me because of how "animated" I was during my telling. I also told her that i'm never going inside that maze again. I felt like a mouse trying to get to the cheese. Next time, i'm hanging back and waiting in the cafeteria thats in the store. Photograph- Taken/Owned by me, Plethos

Oh my goodness Ikea at your place is a lot different. I went to Ikea this morning and it was the usual clean, spacious nice place, where I grabbed what I needed and went home two hours later.

@Plethos I also had lunch there before coming back home. I did not buy a lot, but it takes time to go through all their corridors to get out.
