"They'll think I'm Stupid!!!"

I recently went on a lil trip to the mountains north of here with my sis and her two kids. We went in her newly acquired Monte Carlo. During our trip up there, it began to rain. She had not used her wipers before, so did not know until the moment it began raining that she needed new ones. Thus began our short lived comedy of errors.
The first place we stopped at was an AutoZone. She went in, purchased A windshield wiper, and returned to the car. I said, ok, let's try to put it on. She didn't want to look like an idiot, so she not only refused to ask for help, she also refused to go back in and buy another wiper and to put on the one she bought in the store parking lot. So we drove down the road about a block or so, pulled over at a closed carpet store, and pulled under their covered area. I got out of the car and attemped to attach the ONE wiper to the drivers side. I couln't even get the wiper off to put a new one on, so we decided to continue on down the road.
Eventually, we came to an Advance auto parts store. We stopped there and, once again not wanting to look the fool, my sister went in and bought TWO wipers this time, instead of just one to accompany the one she had already bought. Fortunately there was a sign near the wipers that said "Free installation with purchase of new windshield wipers!" Unfortunately, by this time it was pouring down rain. The store did not have an outside covered area, so the salesman was SOAKED in the process of replacing her much worn wipers. Though he repeatedly refused, my sister finally talked him into taking a tip, and we were on our way to the mountains once again, ending the saga of the worn windshield wipers.
