setting: sitting inside of swirll yogurt shop...and moving into the parking lot.

events: lindsay says "did you see that" as i turn from looking out the window behind me. i turn again and look further around the parking lot to see what i have missed. "the security guard" comes the answer from linds. my eyes scan the parking lot for the guard and instead are drawn to a small vehicle speeding around the corner of one of the parking rows. this vehicle (golf cart meets one of those small electric cars, ie spacey lookin golf cart) flew by with doors open and a leg hanging out. it took one more lap of the parking rows for me to recognize it as the leg of the security guard. we watched what seemed to be a b-movie scene as the guard whizzed up and down the rows, taking the turns without caution and zooming up each aisle. now, in the b-movie scenario, this mario cart race track of a parking lot scene ends with a car backing up right as the security guard peels around one more parking row and provides us with a satisfying collision. in real life the guard sees the car and applies the brakes. this is unfortunate because obviously we were hoping for the movie ending. but, off goes the car and off goes the guard down the next row and WHAM!!...right into a benz. only one row over we saw it coming...the car lights, the guard completely oblivious, rolling back, wham! out we ran in disbelief. trying to slyly see the damage without being noticed, we walked past to the grocery store next to the car and security vehicle...one of the open doors busted in, and the teenage guard trying to explain why the parking lot had turned into his rainbow road racetrack. i dont have a good finish to this story, we laughed in disbelief and that was about it. maybe thats why it's just a b-movie.
