IRONY

I have a great one for this topic..especially since this seems to be all thats on my mind the last couple days.

Monday night my older sister and I went to the laundry mat to do some laundry.  we have been going to the same place for a while and never had any bad experiences.  while there we realized we had left the dryer sheets at home.  This happens quite often so as usual we walk next door to the store to buy some new ones. We were not expecting anything out of the ordinary to happen.  as we were crossing over from the laundry mat parking lot to the store parking lot we notice 2 dark skinned men wearing pullover hoodies walking past the store talking.  We thought nothing of it.  People walk around all the time in south macon.  Well when the men got closer, one began to run.  We didnt have to to realize what was going on until he had already pushed me out of the way and was attempting to snatch my sisters purse (i had left mine in the car).  After a short struggle (she tried but of course he was a grown man), he managed to break the strap and run accross the street and down another street.  I ended up with a couple briuses and my sister without her purse.  it was quite a night!
I would consider this irony because we expected a normal laundry night and we definitely did not get a normal night.
